Sprocket ratios vs. speed don't mean anything between brands that use different gearing in the transmission.

wow dang...I just figured w' 6 speed tranny and more broad power it'd have higher top speed
on the other hand, all those gears/power spread out to 55-60mph should be have a gear for *everything* in tighter/trail riding stuff

Looks like I'll be ready for Sunday.

Re gearing: the extra toof up front will put a bunch more stress on the rekluse, if you're real lazy and using it a bunch.
I agree, ride it, feel out how you'll be using it and go from there. But do keep in mind that gearing it too tall and relying on the rekluse lots will accelerate wear.
Like duh, and shit.

I was considering going down a tooth up front, not up.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Right, but you'll ride it as is for now?

I didn't see you not caring about maxing out at 45.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Yeah, I'll try it out this way.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Nobody discussed over the boot or in the boot pants.
I prefer the over the boot pants as they assist in keeping water and mud etc. out of your boots. Some swear by in the boot as well so I would say it is a preference thing.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I prefer no pants.
Just boots.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I'll rock my old street pants. Waterproof, padded, over the boot. That's how I used to roll when I rode dirt with y'alls many moons ago. I still use them for skiing. Helps keep the ladies away.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I suspect if you ride enough and/or aggressively, street pants won't last long. The parts around the boot will get destroyed. I have seen that some of the OTB offroad pants have heavy material around the boot to help. But unless you're gonna be doing ADV-type riding, I'd go with in the boot.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Not my experience. Over the boot for woods use all day, every day.
I wear the knees out from punching holes in them using rocks. My last pair was destroyed when I high sided myself and caught the waistband on a root.
Yet to have an issue with the pant leg around the boot.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
So what if it gets frayed...that part of the leg is protected by the boot anyways.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
pants over the boots vs. under? geez ladies, just ride!! :lol:
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I'll ride when you spend more than $2k on a motorcycle.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Being out of riding dirt for the last 5+ years, and being kinda bad at it previous to that, I do fully expect the orangeness to allow me to ride like this on my first outing.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
What's the hot (reasonably priced) ticket for hand guards that have the metal loop for ACTUAL protection?
