kx100getter Started a new thread Hitch mounted dirt bike carriers?

1/27/2012 6:14pm
Do any of you use them? My parents really don't like the hassle of hookin on the trailer and worrying about it. I saw one on motorcycle-superstore.com or whatever and it looked cool. Those who use them, do you like the carriers? which one is best for under 200 dollars (strongest, highest quality)?

kx100getter Started a new thread Pros keeping index finger on clutch?

1/27/2012 5:19pm
Hi, I have noticed the pros keep one index finger always on the clutch. This feels normal because I mountain bike alot and I do that with the brakes but how do these riders pull the clutch back so easily with one finger since I usually use all 4 fingers to pull it back. When I try to pull it...

kx100getter Started a new thread Do pros shift up/down often?

1/27/2012 3:25pm
Hi, I have been riding at the track and I have noticed that I am thinking more about shifting up or down rather than picking lines and such.
