Mods.....can we get a sticky for new guy with tire questions? I can specifically help with 14/12 & 12/12. I'm NOT talking a big opinion biased post about what tires are better than these tires. I'm talking mounting, tire pressures, entry level wheel options (can I use my 14"?) etc, etc.........

HI! im new to this website and new to KTM minis. i just built a KTM 65sx for road racing on my local go cart track, i raced one race and figured out that the front brakes are too small they overheat warp and crack. I heard you can put the 125 caliper and rotor on the 85sx but can it work on the...
Anyone running dot tires on 17" wheels?
Just picked up this 1999 xr100 tonight! I saw apexspeed's sick old school, and it made me want to do a 16" motard build! I'd love to hear ideas on what to do, but it also needs some work! I was told there is a 110cc Powroll big bore kit, with only around 15-20 hours, and a powroll 12680 cam. Does...
I have a KX65 with road racing set up. Motor has gone bad and would need top and bottom end rebuild. Yes, building it is an option but I may be buying a NSR50 in the future. I was thinking it would be cool to have both a 2 stroke and 4 stroke. Hence my question. Is there a 4 stroke that I can...
it is, apparently my duty to report that Peter Lenz passed away due to injuries resulting from a warm up lap incident today in Indianapolis. what else can be relevant for this time- maybe a prayer for his family- and a prayer for your own.... GodSpeed Peter Lenz
I need some advice on a front brake setup for a tt5 125 using 17" wheels and slicks. Ride cart tracks and use the brakes pretty hard..... thanks
I have a crf150r that currently has 17" wheels. I would like to go to 12" wheels. How hard would it be to mount 12" wheels from an XR 50 or CRF50 on a 150R. the wheels im looking at have 15mm axle.
I was thinking about removing the airbox on my CR85 to help free up airflow into the carb. Has anyone done this? Air filter setup? Carb jet size? I will be running on pavement only so dust and dirt is not so much of a factor.
Can some one help me decide. These are definitely perforated and seem comfy. But would they be good specially for mini like kx65?
Anyone know of any dirt ovals or dirt tracks in the Florida Panhandle area? I just attended Aaron Stevenson's Cornerspin School and would really like to get back out on the dirt on a crf 100 or similar play bike and practice what I learned. All of the stuff I've found in this area caters more to...

I’m posting this for a friend. I'm sure the subject has come up many times before, but I’ve already spent a good bit of time searching and can’t find definitive answers to my questions. Please don’t flame me. My buddy has a 2007 CRF150RB and wants to just swap the stock dirt tires for some...
Im in the process of building my girlfriend a crf100 street bike to commute to school and work on (3 miles). My question is, is there a place to get 14" wheels and a spoke kit that would work on the 100 hubs.? If not will some 16' s spoke up to the stock 100 rear hub with the stock spoke set, and...
Can anyone get me some or point me to some where that will ship to Canada reasonable? Or anyone have some kikin around? Thanks
what is diameter on the pit bike exhaust. I am wanting to make an exhaust for a golf cart and i was thinking that the pit bike exhaust might be perfect. And if anyone has an old exhaust or cracked broken one their looking to get ride of hit me up. all i need is the slip on
Apparently the KLX250 in Japan has been different than the USA for some time, they have had digital speedometer since before 2003, while USA used analog speedometer past 2006, and now they have fuel injection in japan, while the ones in the USA are still using a carburetor. My question, does anyone...
Okay MIMRA dudes I have been working on a spec class and finally have a supplier willing to help us out! We need to start thinking about what we want.... Follows is a general price range of bikes. Down side is they R Chinese.... Can't seem to find a Japanese Dealership that is willing to step...
so, i know ktm's are not the most popular around here but there is my question: obviously, stock forks spring are to soft for me ( 165lbs all equip'). for $100 everyone can get a new set. what about spacers? or even springs from a different bike... 30mm od with 380mm lenght. if anyone have...
I'm looking to put together a set of motard wheels for my stock KLX110. What size rims should I lace up? I'm assuming 2.15 on the front, but I'm not sure if I can get a 2.50 on the rear, and have it clear. I'm planning on running a 120/70/12 inch rear tire. Any help would be appreciated. --L*64
deleted thread!
Grafting these onto another bike. I'm 170 lbs. Hoping someone has a spare set they are parting out, heavier KX springs I mean. Otherwise...who are the suppliers for heavier springs? I know Race Tech sells them; but are there any others?
my dealer says they have seen alot of kx65's with rear sets on them, ive never heard or seen this, any of you guys got input? would it have any advantages to it? when i asked if they could tell me how it was set up they just gave a blank stare so i wanna call :bs: but it might be true.
Hi Guys, I recently bought a YZ85 that I need to upgrade. As there is not much about that bike on this forum, I thought I would create one. Hopefully it will be good enough for people to refer to it. :bannana: From the information I gathered (from the forum and Cam at M&MRacing) here is what...
hey i want all white plastics for my new 65 because the current plastics are screwed up but i cant find any actual kx65 white plastics...on ebay i found klx110/kx65 *so they say* plastics in white, shipped for $40. will this actually work? my dealers are useless and cant tell me if they are the...
So my son is outgrowing his bike that I had hoped wouldlast him a few years. So to make it fit better, I got a taller seat and taller bars. I really need to use a bar riser and taller bars both. But even with just the bars, the clutch cable is a little too short. Anyone have a source for an...
i have a SSR 125 on a 110 frame. i bought it off a kid who had it and it sat for a year and a half outside and i had it as a project and now i wanted to get into stunting it and just wanted to ask about what parts fit and what not. parts i wanted to look into getting are the: 12 bar, stunt foot...
Looking to get a mini for stunting and general hooliganism. I already have a full-size motard, so I don't really want another full-size. Prefer the size of the 80 over the CRF100F. Is there a good front end conversion for USD forks and disc brake? What size wheels would be best? The bike...
I have recently purchased this mini motard and had my first track day also. I have realized that 2 things I really would like to change are the handlebars and rear spring. Right now the bike has Racetech 462054 5.4kg. Would any one know of anything stiffer? I am 5'11'' 200 pounds if it...
i have a 1994 rs125 frame and swingarm. i was trying to put a yz85 front end on it. i lowered the forks and got the triples on the frame to find out it looks like a chopper. the triple clamp angle is to far out. anyone know of a triple clamp that will fit the yz85 forks and have a steeper rake...
Possible 2011 Mini GP model. I don't have much for specs as I was asked for graphic artwork for these. I saw it posted on another forum so I thought I'd post it here. They look pretty cool
Hello. I am new here and did not know where else to put this so please excuse me if i have posted this wrong.:hmmm: I am turning 17 soon and by UK standards you are allowed to ride a 125CC bike i am lead to belive. I was thinking of getting a TTR-125LW and supermotoing it, is this a wise...
Do they just sit in the garage/trailer/living room/backyard? :rolleyes2: Do you at least fire 'em up once a week just to twist the throttle once? :D And what is the right thing to do to a 2 stroke in between the track days? :hmmm:
I'm talking about fitting some older, plain rims to your stock hubs? I'm thinking of trying a cheap route to fit some 17" dirt track sized rims from an old XR600/500 to my TTR125L hubs so I can fit Maxxis dirt track rubbers. Curious to know if anyone has had any luck doing something...
Hi - I'm a newbie! Getting ready to set up a '07 crf100 for supermoto. I need some direction on tires/wheels. I'm attending an event in a week and was going to ask around, what people are using for the crf100 class. Does anyone manufacture sm tires to fit on the the crf's stock rims? If not,...
What is a good fiddy that i can stunt in my neighborhood without paying $2500.00 bucks for? I was looking at SSR, but I am worried about quality. Can someone point me in the right direction?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71zfrtj8QLM Not a spec bike, but still fun!
I found this site while looking for a repair manual for my CR85. I know a few of you here have CR85s; any of you have experience with this site? A search of all of supermotojunkie.com shows a couple people using it and it seems to be pretty good with lots of pics. Thoughts. ...
Anyone know where to get some springs that are stiffer for nsr50 forks? I have tried talking to a couple of people and haven't found anything other than racetech and they haven't gotten back to me yet. Has anyone tried these hyperpro ones or heard anything about them? I am thinking that these and...
Is there someone I can call and order 12" flattrack wheels for my 10yo daughters KX65? I emailed M&M yesterday.......I didnt see a phone #. What would be the hot tire set-up? Thanks much, Chris
I'm curious to see what others have done, esp. with non-stock rims. I'm personally debating on whether to go with 19" or 17" for dirt track/flat track and supermoto racing. Currently I have the 19/16 stock combo I'm using knobbies for my dirt/grass flat track and I have some street Kenda tires...
I am having a very hard time getting my front brakes to bleed on my CRF150R. I have 17"s with an ebc 320mm rotor and a 2 piston caliper. The previous owner thinks that it already has a front master cylinder from a 450 but how can I be sure without measuring the piston. If it has stock one I...
I want to get my gf into riding and myself into messing around the pits / and out on the track as well. I currently ride CRF250R/SM and WR250X as my main toys, but was thinking of something smaller. This particular SSR bike seems pretty interesting, 150cc motor, 4 speed, comes with 12" SM *and*...
For those of you running bige bore kits in an xr100 what kits are you running and what carb combination? What is the most dependable and reliable kit? As well as cam recommendation
CG had Red one on sale and also my size. Its not my favorite color but I decided to chose comfort and safety over color. Also found $25 coupon online. So now I have a Black helmet, black gloves, red suit and a green kx65. Boots would be black too once I decide what to get. Hehe..let...
Hi, I just bought a 150r for my local kart track. I weigh 300lbs but dropping. I think my bike already has heavier springs front and rear but it's not enough. My bike dives way too much on the brakes. How can I confim what springs I have and where can I find the heaviest to replace? ...
Any body has ideas for a light weight trailer that I can get to tow my KX65 behind a car? Car has steptronic transmission also, so I don't think such light weight towing is going to be an issue.
Hey everyone, I'm trying to get this '03 xr80r of mine going and someday maybe I'll be able to share useful information. In the meantime, I've got a problem. I just put in a used '98 motor off ebay. :hmmm: "Runs great! Just inspected! All new seals and gaskets!" Well it does run well, nice...
