Nice video, I just subscribed. I recently picked up a KLX 300! I been doing some mods but I hate the big bulky mirrors that it comes with stock so I was curious where you got the small one on your bike? Thanks!

[@user-xm3km8wt9e]

Not sure which ones salt uses but I went with $15 Amazon bar end mirrors. Take out the little bar end part and they clamp right on the bars if they 7/8

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

A lot of you have asked for it and here it is! Now let’s see some whooliessss 🤠

[@ChaseJasperDown]

Nice video! Great content! Yeah m definitely over wheelies since up flipped my R1 but that was a cool video.

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Thanks! 👍Yeah I can feel you on that haha

[@Szlejer]

I did a three day wheelie school with two different, well-established stunt coaches, it was fun and everything... but I just can't take myself to practice wheelies on my 13K USD Supermoto. :D

[@jackflashautorepair]

What sumo do you have that’s 13k?

[@Szlejer]

@@jackflashautorepair Husky 701.

@@Szlejer that sounds beastly

[@King_Ty98]

Bruh insurance on those things are like 250 a year. SEND IT!!!

[@gnarlynorm7773]

Huskies don’t like wheelies either, I broke mines doing just that!

[@MadDogATCZERO]

Nice video. I have a KLX300 dual sport and have replaced the front and rear sprocket with 13/42. How do you think that would change the speeds/technique to do wheelies? I used to be pretty good at them when I was younger but didn't ride for about 30 years and getting back into as an old guy. Part of my problem is that I'm not as fearless as I used to be. Maybe just need to practice it more but can't seem to quite get the front wheel all the way up.

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

yours should come up with ease in 2nd gear with that gearing

[@user-xm3km8wt9e]

I got same gearing on the 300sm 13/42. It powers up in 1st, and clutch up easy in 2nd and 3rd. My issue at the start was not giving it enough throttle. More throttle it will come up with that gearing easy. Just keep that foot on the brake.

[@Kevos407]

@@user-xm3km8wt9e what’s top speed

[@THE1BMANY]

Thanks for always answering! My next question is can you do this in first gear?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Yes you can! Thanks for watching

[@user-xm3km8wt9e]

I just geared mine to 13/42 it comes right up now. Runs at 6500rpm at 55mph though. Any redfish videos soon? You should do some shark fishing!

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Nice! I thought about doing lower gearing also but I do ride it to work quite a bit and don't want it buzzing the whole time haha And we are currently awaiting Hurricane Ian to pass us, hoping for the best and to be back on the water here soon! We did just catch a huge snook and a 3-4' shark just 2 weeks ago!

[@JC-lc8vz]

Just wanted to know where you got the sliders in case of wipe out? Also, your mirror

[@wadewarnock5926]

@JC-lc8vz those are from t-rex racing. Its a great brand, I've had them on my last 3 bikes.

[@Astropr0ject]

Are you able to shift to third once u reach the balance point to keep it going?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Yes you can do that as well, you’re best bet is to find balance point in 2nd gear though and keep it fairly slow, the higher the gear you go the faster you’ll be going and the bigger risk of you go down

[@Scruffybirdd]

Is the bike totally stock? Did you change gearing ratio or upgrade clutch? Thanks!

[@JWStreeter]

What is that gear indicator you're using, and was it hard to setup?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

I have a video of the install 👍🏻

[@davidpena6413]

Hey, I have a quick question, on your rebuild on your GSXR750, where did you buy all the bolts for the rebuild?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

I actually went on Revzilla and bought OEM bolts for the ones that I needed

[@jacobs33]

Dude i keep trying and i cant get it. Am i too tall? I cant even get the front wheel off thr ground in 1st gear from a dead stop

[@THE1BMANY]

Hey I’ve been loving my bike. Still have my trouble wheeling. Did you change any of the sprockets? What kind did you have? If you changed sprockets did it slow down your highway speed?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

I went up 2 teeth in the rear and it helped quite a bit, top speed didn’t suffer much at all

[@THE1BMANY]

@@SALTxTHExWOUND gotcha thanks!

[@swaggaming420]

Clutch up= clutch kick?

[@denox420]

thanks for the tips. been tryna get klx 300sm up in second gear and struggling. i can get it up in 1st no problem. but in second guess i needa give it a bit more pull on the bars and maybe more throttle

[@THE1BMANY]

Did you do any mods? First for me is rough

[@denox420]

@@THE1BMANY practice practice practice. I lift up in 3rd now. Only thing not stock is bars ( I bent the stock ones) same curve bar tho, shifter linkage (bc I broke the og) and I even got the stock clutch lever on rn.

[@THE1BMANY]

@@denox420 got it man thanks!

[@denox420]

@@THE1BMANY come back in a few months lemme know how progress has went!

[@THE1BMANY]

@@denox420 will do! I looped it bad but I gotta keep trying

[@Islandboy_Geo]

Thank you for the video

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

You're welcome

[@jeffh278]

Basically pull in the clutch rev and let go of clutch

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

basically lol

[@jeffh278]

I remembered your OG how to wheelie videos. I forgot to say cover the rear brake

[@danielgause9965]

Why does the gearing go back to 1st ?

[@jimmymitchell209]

#1 rule COVER the rear brake!

[@briancsmith11]

Thx.

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

You're welcome!

[@jackohaire8203]

I can only get mine up in first gear going like 10-15 mph.

[@keithmaney2991]

What tire pressure do you run?

[@HogboyBiff]

When are you going back to Jennings?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

We'll be back in november most likely

[@peterwesner2730]

Where did you get those case sliders?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

T. rex racing 💪🏻

[@jeffh278]

First again.

[@THE1BMANY]

Do you let air out of the back tire before you do them?

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

I usually ran a few pounds lower for street riding/wheelies

[@THE1BMANY]

Thanks for always replying! I’m loving my KLX so far

[@WadeMade]

What gearing are you running?
