When you start going to heavier springs rates, you need more rebound damping. You might be able to get away with just slowing down your rebound with clicker adjustments, but clicker changes aren’t as effective as valving changes. It would be a shame to change springs rates, ride the bike and still not be happy, go to a tuner and...

Unfortunately, there is no one size fits all when it comes to spring rates. I find that a person can have up to 3 “correct” spring rates on paper, but so much of it comes down to an individual riders preference, height (leverage plays a big part on the shock spring rate) as well as the valving and oil height...

If you’re good with your oil changes and air filters, and the bike isn’t giving any signs of a worn out top end (ie blue smoke, hard to start etc) then 100 hours will be fine. As for hardware, I’d just stick to OEM, especially if you plan to keep the bike, very very hard to beat OEM quality. You...

I personally didn’t have any issues with front end feel on the air fork. Maybe if you are riding on hard pack, dry-slippery tracks, I could agree the air fork isn’t as good, but its just as good or even better on soft loamy or sand tracks. The 6500 is a nice bit of kit, but the biggest advantage of...

IMO, given you haven’t ridden in 10 years and aren’t exactly a sprightly youth, get a 350. Still has plenty of power available but will be less fatiguing and more fun. And if after a few months you want to add some more power, its relatively easy to do with an ECU. The suspension on these new KTMs is quite...

For the 2019 - 2022 model KTMs, the Akrapovic slip-on is compatible between the 250 and the 450. The 350 has a unique part number. For the 2022.5 to current model KTMs, the Akrapovic slip-in IS NOT compatible between the 250 and the 450. The 250 has a unique part number and the 350 and 450 are shared. I don't...

I have had a few sets now and they are my go to tyres. I was using the old version of the MX32s prior to these. The front is awesome, quite similar to the Dunlop AT82 in overall feel and performance. I would say the AT82 performs slightly better on hardpack conditions and the MX32 performs slightly better in soft/sandy...
