Just in case anyone in the future finds this video looking to do the same, a 106 chain did not fit in my case ('23 KLX300 DS). Had the wheel all the way forward and still a blonde one from sliding the master link in. Gonna try a 108 because it was at least do-able in KC's experience. Hope this helps! Thanks for the video!

Is the weight and suspension difference significant on that loop, at that speed?
@kcoutside7143Күн бұрын
The suspension on that terrain had little effect on the time, the limiting factor, for the KLX , although small, was the weight & bottom end power.

So adding a slip-on and the airbox snorkel doesn't need any re-tune? I'm assuming the O2 sensor can compensate the FI for those slight mods? Would just adding the KDX snorkel only be worth it? I like the factory quiet exhaust for stealthy riding.

I test road one in March. I weigh 205 and thought it had more power than needed for most off-road riding. Good power delivery, and plenty for street use. Found it a bit heavy overall, and a bit top heavy for off-road. Seeing as I was not planning to do any road riding, I bought the KTM 150 xc-w. About 35lbs lighter.

I want better protection than what the leather Harley Davidson boots don't provide.

@NonplusedАй бұрын
What is the purpose of the snorkel other than sound attenuation? Certainly if you are in water all the way to the top of the airbox you already have problems that the snorkel can't solve. I've run my KLX 250 without the whole airbox top plate (after market exhaust and carburetor) and other than the noise I did not notice any performance issues.
@kcoutside7143Ай бұрын
I’m not an expert on that. Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in. I put exhaust on that is more free flowing(air out) , so I installed the snorkel to allow more air flow into the system , to balance everything out.

What app are you using to show GPS and trail mapping? I take my daughter and son to Mountain Ridge normally a few times a year. I really like how most of the trails are one way. Always worried about someone coming the other way in a Side by Side when we are riding dirt bikes. There are videos on KZbin showing people at AOAA going 60MPH on two-way trails in RZRs - scary as hell to think of someone getting hit head on at those speeds. We haven’t been back to AOAA since I saw some of those videos. What cell phone mount are you using as well….. Thank You for the videos.

Wonder if the gearing is different from the 250S models. I’ve settled on 14-46 gearing on my 250 and found it works perfect on the trails, still capable of 70 mph at 7800 rpm even though the bikes useless at those speeds. Way too much wind buffeting you once you’re over 60 mph on these bikes for comfort. I also cut the extended part of the upgraded snorkel that goes inside the airbox as it takes up an excessive amount of airspace inside that box. Pretty sure it starves it for air.

Holy cow! That thing is spotless! Do you just not use it, or do you pay a detailer? I have the '21 XT1 42" and I love it! I'm working up the courage to drop the deck, clean it, and sharpen the blades. I keep mine outside, with the cover they sent me. End of Summer, I change the oil, the oil filter, the fuel filter, the intake filter, and the spark plug(took me a couple of minutes to figure out that the hood slides off at a very particular angle...). I take out the battery and put it on a drip charger, and sprinkle the battery cables liberally with rodent repellent. I only use VP Racing fuel, 94 octane, no complaints.
