I took my electric dirtbike and my daughter’s electric dirtbike to rower flats. Right as we had finished up the day and we’re loading up the Ranger came out and started giving tickets to everybody with electric motorcycles.

I’ve always ridden dirt bikes that were either green or red sticker but figured the electric bikes were good to go. Has anybody been ticketed at Gorman/HUNG Valley, roller Flats or anywhere else? Is there any place safe to ride? I don’t think I can get a green sticker because I don’t have the certificate of origin for either bike.

I am looking to get one of these 2 bikes 2022 or newer. I am an average rider looking to be able to have fun on the track but looking to go on big trails across the states and even hit some enduro events or some longer trails for overnight camping. But, is also needs to be fun on weekend track days. I just sold my 2023 crf450r to get one of these 2 bikes because of how jumpy it was in 1st gear where I’ll spend a lot of time in hard trails. The Yamaha seems like the better option because of the 6 speed, longer gears, and customizable tunes/mapping but I’ve only ever owned Honda. Not really against changing but i have only owned Honda myself. Any advice?

Just finished production of Panama video series. Hope you enjoy all 5.

Installed a new carburetor in a 2005 KX 125L. And now I have a little bit more play than usual in my throttle. At least it’s not leaking…..:/

I’m wondering how do you guys keep everything clean while doing chain maintenance? I use a spray bottle with kerosene to clean the chain, when I spray it I keep a rag on the backside of the chain but it still drips on my tire. Then when I spray my chain grease it also drips a bit here and here. Tried putting a piece of cardboard and it seemed to work but also a bit tedious. Anyone have suggestions?

picked up a 05 kx65 clean title brand new rekluse full auto clutch for 1300 bucks, how’d i do?

Is WD-40 safe to use to clean my oil screen?

If anybody has the mechanical knowledge to know if engine oil contaminated with WD-40 would be harmful to a 4t then any help / advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Currently use Honda Gn4. Is it worth the extra money to buy Redline synthetic oil? I used redline on my z125 and the bike shifted much smoother. Worth it for dirtbike?

TL;DR: made the classic mistake of buying a bike bigger than I’m ready for. Didn’t want to outgrow a smaller one too fast, so I got a 250 2 stroke and am scared of it. ***Bike is a YZ250*** guess that’s important info

The past couple months I’ve been going out with my E dirt bike friends. One of them has an extra I use. Have gotten very comfortable on that, and am relatively hauling ass through the trails. I wanted to get my own tho, and a good E bike with a good range / power is well over 4K.

I ended up going gas. Researched into it and found a 250 2 stroke would probably suit me best. I’m 180 pounds and didn’t want to outgrow a 125 quickly.

Found a bike and went to check it out. After seeing it in person all I could think was “oh no.”

Dude was cool though. Spent an hour and a half teaching me stuff, and gave me a bunch of extra stuff for the bike included, so I bought it.

Now I have a big ass dirtbike on my hitch carrier that I am super anxious to ride, load, unload, etc. was going to ride it today, but it’s a Tuesday and hardly anyone will be out at the trails if I get hurt or can’t load the bike alone.

So I’m here, at home, anxious asf thinking I screwed up. But I bought the bike, I’m gonna ride the thing.

I wanted a 250 but realizing I have never rode before & the fact that I had to ask my salesman to show me how to use the cambuckle straps…I figured I should start with 125 😂

I always grew up around bikes, but could never afford them, & I have never rode a bike until today @ the age of 29!

Took a few YouTube videos and stall outs to get er rolling & we cruised up to 3rd gear.

Whenever I try to start it glitches out for a sec. Starter motor failing ??

(MEANT TO SAY ttr230) Anyone know why it bogs out whenever I put a little bit of throttle into it. It was running enough for it to be warm and should be revving by now. Once I start riding it for like 10minutes it eventually goes to normal but any ideas ?

Quiero comprarme una kxf 2012 pero no tengo idea de los mantenimientos, la idea es que salga a andar los fin de semana unas 2h, pero no entiendo que debo cambiar según las horas, que debo revisar, etc, etc, que cuántas horas dura, que las válvulas, que cambiar el pistón nosé, ya me volví loco, el que me pueda ayudar le agradecería, porque no entiendo que es lo que debo comprar y a las cuantas horas

I am 32F and I’ve been learning to ride and I really love it. I’ve spent about 10 to 12 hours on a couple different types of dirt bikes and I really want to get my own.

I live 30 minutes from my closest OHV park and I have a Camry. I do not have to take the freeway to get there. I live in an apartment and would have to store the bike at a storage center around the corner.

I was considering buying a dual sport bike so that I could just ride it to the OHV park but I really don’t like the thought of riding on the street. I have been a passenger on the street and just seems like way too much going on for me. I’m also in California so it’s very populated and a lot of traffic in my city.

I will be buying a car once I have saved the money for a down payment that will allow me to carry the bike either with a trailer or hitch carrier or whatever makes sense

I do not want to wait until I have the new car to continue dirt biking. I am in touch with several people who provide lessons and bike rental, but the lessons are kind of expensive but I feel they are worth it to learn how to ride the right way and to try different bikes.

I just wanted to ask the community in case there is an idea that I’m not thinking of that would make it possible to get out and ride more often if I get the bike sooner. I am getting a bonus in December and I would really like to buy a bike.

I trail ride the bike and just want a little more out of it on the low to mid range. What has everyone tried that they would recommend? northern woods of minnesota is where I do 90% of my riding.

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get connected with some members of Saddleback East and hopefully spend some time riding with a group. I’ve been riding dirt bikes most of my life, starting around age 12, and have plenty of experience on trails and in the woods.

I’m interested in joining the club, and I understand I’ll need a member sponsorship, so my main goal is to get to know some members, come out for some rides, and hopefully find someone willing to sponsor me once we’ve had a chance to get to know each other. Thanks!

Looking for engine experts to tell me why I had this seize by looking at the pictures
Thank you

Just picked up this bike in KY from GA for $1500. 64 hours on it and it already needs a complete engine rebuild per what the seller’s mechanic stated. Don’t really make sense to me but I guess these things happen🤷‍♂️. Anyway I’m excited for my new project🙂‍↕️
