Similar to what Greg mentioned, I also heard that there were vandalism issues and one of the main land owners may have bypassed the club and went right to the state with a complaint. There still haven't been any specifics released about the state's actions though.

This doesn't really clarify which ride you were on at all. Melissa had/has a habit of faceplanting in puddles where/when ever she rides.
Spent a few days riding with her in 2015. Miss riding with her, she's a good shit!

Maybe you were there. Perhaps it was in your Element daze. My memory is muddier than my driveway.

had fun riding with you guys at Clough summer '15. Melissa is a trooper! crazy that was two years ago in July. EDIT: she totally reminded me of my friend Jill in college. Wisconsin horse people. tough as nails and not afraid of angry beasts or eating dirt :D

Wow, that's a while back. I must have had my 125SX at that point. That thing was wild and liked to spit me off at CH.

i know it's hard to see with the earth-toned kit, but you and the bike are in frame.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Yeah, I think I was there. Might of been my first time doing MX. After three laps I pulled off and was like UM WTF? This is so tiring!
I did manage to clear the doubles. But everything else was slow as shit!

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Well, those fancy foldable levers didn't fit, so back to Motosport they go.
I'll upgrade to the dandy-man Herbalife pyramid scheme snakeoil fat levers if I hit the lottery, or a tree hard enough to break the stockers.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
don't pretend those levers cost a mint. I guarantee you've spent more and done so frivolously in the past.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I actually regret passing that recommendation on to him at this point. They work (well) for me, but whatever.
Get whatever levers you like. It's your ride.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
you shouldn't regret it. they are absolutely a superior product.

Priorities. I still have no real dirt riding pants, jacket/jersey, gloves. My boots suck. These are all things that need financial attention before replacing levers that currently work fine.
I'm not downplaying the potential niceness of a really wide clutch engagement zone, but at this point, I'm just hoping to get enough shit together to go out on the bike 5x this summer.

You should probably re-read the title of this thread.

Dude, you asked about levers.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I regret buying an expensive lever that WASN'T MME after reading this.

And I got an answer of sweet levers that were nearly 3x the price of the levers I was considering. Don't pretend I'm not a cheap skate.
I'll say they look to be worthwhile. But for that money, I got a lot of other things that need my attention beforehand. They are on the radar now.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Just for that, I just bought me a matching brake lever. Bahliiingeee! :wiggle:

I've crashed approx. 10 million times on the CRF with stock Honda levers and have broken one lever once.
If you're doing MX, I don't think you need folding levers. If you're doing woods riding, you do.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
The enduro cross training review was thorough. Made me have a somewhat "eh, crap" moment of buyers remorse after I hit buy on the cheaper but bendy levers. Of course that's now a moot point as they don't fit.
These guys seem to know their stuff, reviewed both levers in depth. I think the clutch would be the one to grab first as the benefit is more apparent.
-
Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
I'll say it again because I have compulsive post disorder; I think bendy levers on a woodsy bike are a waste of time. Invest in handguards (which, IIRC, you have) and be done.
And bling makes people think you know what you're doing.
Clutch is the one to get first. I didn't even know they added a brake lever until recently. That's a new product.
Barry does do a good job. But he likes his bling and then seems to sometimes grow out of it later. I believe his position on the rekluse has changed over time for example.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Yours will too, one you change to a mme clutch lever.

Re: I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?
Well I'm convinced, but it'll be a while. In the meantime, I'm going to try to setup an enduro training course in the yard. I sure do have enough rocks, logs, hills and mud.
