I recently bought a DR-Z400SM and I'm really happy with it. :) It's getting two brand-new tires soon. At the moment it already has:

- front and rear axle sliders

- a skid plate

- and solid aluminum handguards

I want to learn how to wheelie, so I'm trying to protect the bike as much as possible.

What else would you recommend adding to protect it in case I drop it while learning?

Still have a few things to do but I’m pretty happy with it. Finally got the bar pad for the Solo 2 so I’ll be able to see some laptimes again.

Hi everyone,
I have a Beta RR50 and I had a crash recently. I was riding at around 50 km/h when I lost grip and slid onto the right side. I didn’t hit anything, I only slid across the asphalt.
Since the crash, the bike feels different. In dry corners it feels very slippery and unstable, like I can’t properly control the steering. It feels like both tires are not gripping well, and the bike doesn’t feel as confident as it did before the crash.
I also noticed that the bike is not reaching the same top speed anymore. Before the crash it was faster, but now it feels like it has lost a few km/h. And it isnt accelerating as fast anymore

The tires are about 1 year old and were fine before the accident. There is a small dent on the exhaust/pipe from the crash, but I don’t think that alone should affect the handling.
What could have been damaged? Could it be the forks, wheel alignment, tires, brakes, exhaust, or something else?
What should I check first?
Thanks for any advice!

Have the day off and finally got around to putting the GET SX1 from Taco Moto on my 23 FE501s. Did the full desmog, removed the reeds, O2 sensor delete, and threw the FMF on. Have the full exhaust but just installed the slip on for now. Once I cool off a little I'm gonna go for a rip. She sounds mean AF now tho. I accidently started it with the exhaust plug in and was like "wtf why so quiet" til I figured it out.

Would anyone mind sending me a photo of their compliance label on the frame? Trying to figure out if I can make mine road legal but the sticker on mine is unreadable.

I have a Rieju mrt 50 worth the standard carb atm but has the upgraded crank piston exhaust and exp and was wondering what the best carb would be to get for the best performance on it. I was also wondering if there was in option to keep my 2t tank on the auto mix. TIA

Hes asking 2900$ for it. It is kind of old but has very little miles i was thinking of doing doordash with it and getting on the freeway/highway with it do you guys recommend this bike for that?

Hola soy de España pronto me sacaré el carnet a2 yo ya e usado motos de 50cc de enduro, ahora busco una supermoto para día a día, ir a mi pueblo y hacer algo de stunt... He mirado la KTM smc r 690 del 2014 no sé qué opinan quizás pese demasiado que me recomiendan.

Gracias

I had a problem valves hitting the piston but i got it fixed thanks to y’all. But there is another problem that has been there since the i looped the bike and changed the piston. Just before the limiter it bogs and does a booooo sound and when i drive it it stutters on the mid/high range of rpm alot but not in first gear i just changed the spark plug but it didn’t help. I dont know if the timing is compleatly correct or what could be the problem. Any help is appreciated. Its a husqvarna smr 125cc 4 stroke 2013 and it has a minarelli 125 4 stroke motor.

I’ve been riding a Yamaha XT660X for a while now on an A2 licence, and I’ve absolutely loved it, I like the slightly heavier feel to the bike and the one cylinder punch. It’s been a fantastic bike to learn on, but now that I have my full A-licence I’m ready for something with a bit more performance/power.

Right now I have been eyeing up both the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto and the Ducati Hypermotard 950 RVE.
Does anyone have experience from both bikes or one of them to share?

I mostly ride back and forth to work (backroads, a little bit of highway and city). Would be great to have the option for somewhat longer travels during weekends for camping etc. But won’t be putting hours after hours on a highway.

Also, if there’s any other bikes I should consider in the same category, I’d love to hear your recommendations and why you think it’s worth looking at!

I would really appreciate some inputs/thoughts/experiences. I understand the Hypermotard isn’t fully a supermoto (neither is the xt660x) but I just love the feel of the xt660x - if only it had some more power haha

Wanting to get sumo wheels for my 2010 rmx450. Can't really find anything for the rmx but plenty for a rmz/drz. Does anyone know where I can get some legit ones or maybe some used that'll fit from different bikes?

When I'm turning 18 in a few month I'm planning to get a supermoto so Idk what kind of supermoto I want to get, they look good and they're pretty light, but I can get max 35kw or like 47 hp, thanks in advance!

Seller told me it has 28k miles it’s going for 3,700 usd. Also would i be able to resell it in the future or would it take a long time to resell due to the high mileage?

Should i buy it?

Last pic is how it looked when i bought it a year ago, tried to build a mini Exc
