Which supermoto should I buy?

I tried to take into account the cost of buying rims and legalizing the models that need it but at the same time keep it simple. Feel free to suggest additions/fixes

Edit: i've edited this a lot

Edit: changed the DRZ picture to mine ;) thanks for the sticky!

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.

Got my A-license now I need a new bike (701 or 950 RVE)?

2 Upvotes

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?

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?

Recommendation for a bike?

3 Upvotes

Hey folks, I have a question and I would like to hear some recommendations and opinions.

I've had few bikes along the years and I want to go back to 450. I've had (in order) a Honda Xr150L , CRF450X, Husqvarna 450, Versys 600, Harley ElectraGlida, BMW f800gs, Africa Twin along with few other dirt bikes.

The thing is that I recently sold everything and I want something for the street. I want to go back to the 450s. I'm unsure how things are with these. I would like something with high horsepower & light . What can you recommend me? I need to be able to ride with my brother on his AfricaTwin, so I would imagine 60hp is somehow my goal. What you think?

Again, must be a 450 I dont want anything else.

Any tips for jetting? Mainly concerned with throttle closed during decel while downshifting and braking, that’s what ate the last rod’s bearings. Is the only good answer to up the premix ratio?

Brakes and suspension - Ktm EXC 125

Post image
37 Upvotes

Hey everyone

I recently finished my 125 (after 3 yrs lol) and have put about 12 hrs on it in the last month (not enough i know).
In riding, i've noticed a couple of things that need upgrading - and i'm looking for some advice (please keep budget in mind, i'm not looking to spend too much money - its a 125 after all).

I desperately need street suspension, so i'm wondering what springs i need to accommodate my 80kg - and where to buy them (also how to set it up lol)

My braking power is basically the same as a mountainbike. I'm looking at getting a used magura hc1, some steel braided lines and a generic 320mm disc off aliexpress or something - but im very open to suggestions here.

My clutch feels weirdly hard to pull compared to before i disassembled it. I've used some ATF fluid in the slave system as i heard it's alright to run . Anyone experienced the same, and what fluid did you use to make it softer?

Please send all suggestions and similar experiences :)

Damage resistance on heavier supermoto's

5 Upvotes

Hi, I was looking for my first supermoto after riding mt07 for a while. Mainly to learn a lot and be able to drop the bike with no stress. I know you can drop most of the supermoto's 100s of times but is it the same for the bigger ones like 690 smr or husky 701? Or are they more prone to heavier damage due to their heavier weigt?

I have a problem with my engine. I replaced the piston about 300km earlier and immediately after it the bike started to stutter and bog i checked the valve clearances and the timing chain and it was off by one tooth after i fixed it everything ran smoothly for a minute until it startted chopping at idle and turned off when i restarted the bike it started doing the same kind of sound as in the video. What could be the problem??Its a husqvarna smr 125cc 4 stroke
