​@@nathanbaeyens2856just found out dealer messed up ad made it legal for highway use so wanted to see if it's possible for highway speeds (sprockets, head, exhaust and tune should work) check the tsp over rev 6hp up top and 11,600 rpm

@@keenanfrith5790 Top end likely won't last very long on a highway, but it will survive. My piston was ready to be changed at 40 hours.

@@nathanbaeyens2856 I'm at 50 or hours hard abuse enduro so we shall see thank you

@@jjohn56 Yes, slightly.

@@nathanbaeyens2856 Thanks. I have only been on track once with my 701 and was wondering

@@bbbbojangles2737 The klx has much less power, but I was also like 80 pounds less and the bike itself also is like 50 pounds less. The 390 was fully tuned/bolt on and my klx was stock. It would be closer now but the 390 is much quicker in the straights for sure.

I’ve watched a couple of your uploads and this lap is better than your uploads. You might want to use your tips for your own use and in addition hit your apex. Also: get a quickshifter.

​@@MichelRoerinkWhy would I need a quick shifter? He doesn't have one in this video either

He’s fine

@@keeno86 I’m not saying you need one. You don’t need any gears other than first either, but having them makes riding a lot more fun. Every shift closing the throttle as far as you do, unsettles the bike.

​@@MichelRoerinkA quick shifter will make your engine blow up from too fast shifting

Long island, but that's a good guess

if you don't have a competitive bone in your body, a klx is great because it's street legal and can be used as a street bike as well, while other options can't. But after doing it for a while and getting good, you might want to race, and the klx is no race bike. If you get a used one for cheap, it'd be great for getting into it, and you can sell it later down the line for something faster if you need. I have thousands of extremely cheap but fun track miles on my klx and it's made me a good rider

@@nathanbaeyens2856 appreciate the feedback!!! I could see myself wanting to compete… I am going to consider all options. . Was there a go-to bike or popular choice among the people that that raced? Thanks again for the reply

Reads the same number as any other klx

I did some minor weight reduction, weigh 150 lbs and had the bike in 2+luggage preload. I was nowhere near dragging peg.

@@nathanbaeyens2856 thank you for the fast response👍

Did you use the 300r lines from the website?

@@nx7925 klx250s brake lines are identical to the klx300ds/sm brake lines

Oh ok, thank you again.

Get a 250 or 300. The 150 is wild fun, but the gearing is too short and so are the rebuild intervals

@@nathanbaeyens2856being as I’m riding a grom right now, I don’t mind the short gearing LOL however I am curious about the top end life. I’ve seen everything from some getting 60 hours to getting 150 hours. How were yours?

@@synible My bike needed a top end at 40 hours. It takes 45 minutes to do but it costs 300 bucks

your tires are what probably gets you above jh in 0 to 60 along with your mods when you are comparing others and your skill ... 0 to 60 times could very tremendously on same bike/car with different riders drivers....dope bike though fr

I did like thousands of miles on track with that tire and still got like 4000 miles out of the rear tire. I was very impressed.

@@nathanbaeyens2856 Thanks, Brother.

Nope, it's my daily now. Street legal skids and wheelies

hell yeah! you should drop another video on it if you find the time!

@@denox420 What would you like to know about it? I feel like I've covered just about all there is to know

@@nathanbaeyens2856 just watching someone more skilled ripping around on basicly the same bike as you is entertaining for me, thats why i asked

I race supermoto on the east coast of the US. You can see my other videos if you'd like. But yes, this bike is very capable on a race track and incredible fun due to how easy and forgiving it is to ride.

Yeah, I will be taking a look at your track stuff but I'm too old for any of that now. But as I've looked at bikes I figured one of the dual sports from the 350cc & down = which ever looks like it'll provide the most bang for the buck ! The KLX hits in my top 3 so I've been checking them out. Tonight I learned about the "SM" version & I really thought you'd bought the dual sport & modded it out, did a bunch of art, & walla.... an SM LQQKing bike? But then I double checked & saw that they sell the SM model. I'll be researching to see the key differences between these two models but I guess the basics are close to the same? Running into you might make me change from the dual sport to the supermoto so go figure? I'm off right now to learn the basic differences including prices but I'll yell at you when I check your racing out... thanks for the post... peace

Abs is for people who need a computer to brake for them 😂

miles per hour

They lose the exact same amount regardless of the speed. It's a percentage loss. My 919 was about 10%. It indicated 160ish and showed 144 on the GPS.
