[@justobservenow3480]

Love the sound of the X. Has it's signature brap and grunting through the trails. Can't wait to get my 23 in the dirt. She hasn't seen dirt or rain yet.

[@utmx]

[@rztrzt]

Ya need to try a HITLIS power valve.

[@utmx]

Thanks ill check it out !

[@RippinLyons]

Really wanting to get a 250x I have a kx500 that I ride up in AF all the time and it’s to bulky haha

[@utmx]

I bet that's a bit much for af haha! The 250x is amazing! Mines actually for sale! $7400 obo. I got a 2024 tx300 and I can't justify both lol

[@tallrichboy]

I live a couple mins from this trail. It's a fun bike. I've changed mine a lot back and forth in some instances. It can behave so differently with different mods. Ride it for a while first is my opinion.

[@utmx]

Thanks for watching! I love this trail! The bike is amazing! Love it in the desert! So far it's a bit snappy in the tight stuff!

[@fattie2550]

time to get some full wrap around hand guards.

[@utmx]

Haha yeah man I crushed my hand a bit later when I wasn't filming haha

[@justinsavs]

Fun little mod on this bike, go from a 38mm to a 36mm pwk, you’ll get your smoothness back. Signs off a little lower but, it’ll be nice and grunty.

[@utmx]

Thanks! That would be great cuz this sucker is snappy!! Fun in the desert but a bit much in tight stuff

[@Pajero.m57]

Do you already done this mod? Which référence for the carb? Ans setting base? Thank you

[@justinsavs]

@@Pajero.m57I ride from 3000-7000ft so this will just be a reference, but I use the NECW Suzuki needle, NECW or NEDW needle (one or the other for fine tuning), 2nd or 3rd position depending on time of year, 170 main, and 40 pilot. #7 slide.

[@Pajero.m57]

@@justinsavs thank you. See level, i run necw 2nd clip, 178 main, 50 pilot jet with stock 38 pwks

[@KapitanPisoar1]

Isn't it what is it built for?

[@utmx]

Well it's basically the motocross bike with a few tweaks... I'd say the bike is definitely more cross country race feel than it is tight trail enduro feel like a 300xcw. However it is great in the tight stuff it's definitely much better in more open higher speed areas

[@KapitanPisoar1]

@@utmx And let's be honest people been riding dirtbikes on trails forever. Now they do couple of changes and market them as "enduro" bikes. But 90% wouldn't know the difference anyway...
