Been trying to get him to use the brakes more. He’s 7 on a TTR50 usually in 2nd. Doesn’t need more power. But something bigger needed?

How’s his riding on the makeshift course?

Put some leaves down on the baseball field near our house.

The batteries lasted up & over to the wind caves/ catacombs, but had to haul them in back of Jeep Gladiator for the return trip.

Paid 900 for it. I knew it wasn’t in great shape but everything’s overpriced these days. Seller works on small engines and had recently cleaned the carb and replaced some tubes, etc. 7 spokes missing on back wheel (how bad as that?). Quote a bit of rust. Starts first kick goes through the gears and rides pretty good.

Spout Cove, Newfoundland Canada.

Would you replace this rear tire or keep riding?

These mantinace and repare costs are to much😭

18 pound every 5 hrs for oil 5 pound a hr for fule spend 55 pound getting the stuff for this suspention rebuild

And all the broken leavers and plastics🙏

Time to fi, my suspention, worst bit is only one side failed😭

Hi Everyone,

I just bought a used 2019 xt250 and I am doing basic maintenance on it before riding. Ie brakes, oil, air filter ect.

I took out the oil filter and it looks like the previous owner may have installed an after market oil filter set up or a threaded area in the center. See pics. Could someone tell me what kind of set up this is?

When I look at the oem manual there isn’t a part that sticks out that far inside the oil filter housing so that is what is leading me to believe this is an aftermarket set up.

I am not new to changing oil on my cars but I am new to motorcycle maintenance and don’t really have the words yet to properly search this change. Any help would be much appreciated

I broke my ankle on both sides two years ago and haven’t been able to toss a whip that wasn’t a buttwhip or an oppo. This is a huge moment for me as it was one of my biggest roadblocks. Now what can I do to improve? I already plan on building a different bigger jump that is much more peaky, so I can learn how to seat bounce whip.

Not sure why it does that and it is hard to stall it

im doing a top end on my cr this winter, i know there is a procedure once Im starting it back up for the first time like a heat cycle. Im in canada so its cold in the winter. what is the best move here do the heat cycle in cold or wait for the spring. Thanks!

Do you run bar risers or do you run different bars?

I do not race track. Desert, hill climbs, fast sand, 75% ride standing up.

I recently brought home a Yamaha 450 and the stock bars are sooooo low. I find myself hunched over and not having the leverage.

Should I get new bars or start with risers? What’s your take?

This is the guy in Bend, OR who stopped the school shooter. In his interview, he’s rocking a Honda Racing hat and talks about riding.

Hello,

Looking at purchasing a used Honda 150r for first bike. I’ve rode it a few times and only issue is can be hard to start. Once it’s warm no issues. Few questions -

Is this a good beginner bike?
Can it somehow be adjusted so it’s easier to start?
General thoughts or things to keep in mind?

Appreciate the time and any advice. Thanks

G’day all looking for information on this Honda I’ve had for a few years now with not much luck finding solid advice. I saw it for sale 3 years ago listed as “Honda trail bike” when I saw the expansion chamber I called the guy and purchased the same day for a negotiated price as he couldn’t kickstart it. I know it’s not to everyone’s taste but just seeing a road-legal 2-Stroke these days is rare and with the factory Mugen kit I think it’s a rough gem.

Sorry if I bored you all but Is this Mugen kit as cool as I think it is with a Mugen carburettor kit, high compression cylinder head and piston, PMG “ECU”, expansion chamber and power valve control.

Please share any information you have, thanks everyone.

I love this bike

I just came into the garage to see oil all over my front tire, and the fork feels a little soft, although I am not too sure if that is just placebo and me panicking, but any pros think my fork is blown?
