post pics of your bikes

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

How is that LOL? My suspension changes drastically from 0hr's to 15. I figure it takes 10hrs to work in your suspension.

Because stock suspension is tuned for the average rider weight and skill level, and most people are not at that exact weight and skill level, there's no reason not to have your suspension done right when you get a bike. If you're going to do it at all, then why not set yourself up from the get go instead of getting used to a bike that isn't tuned for you?

some people like stock suspension better than revalved? I have had mine revalved multiple times by multiple different people, all were a bit different setup wise and I liked my stock stuff the best. Personal preference I guess.

Its funny that you say that all the reviews liked the kx the best, here in Aus most of the reviews swung towards to rmz... my mate just whent from a life time of riding crf's to a 2012 kx 250 (hes good, races super x ands stuff) and he likes the kx's power a bit better that the crf, but he recons they have similar erginomics, also b2r is that a cr frame?

If you have a bike that is valved for a 170 lb rider its not going to work for a rider who is 140 lbs and a novice skill level or one who is 190 lbs and a intermediate skill level its simple letting the suspension break in is not going to change the fact that the valving is too soft or too hard for these two individuals it does not take long to figure it out. I swear your posts keep on getting more stupid by the day.

Just bought this today. Not me there in that picture, that's my buddy Lewis Stein. 2010 YZ250, Factory Connection Suspension, PC Pipe, VForce Reeds. Not too many motor mods, but the suspension is trick.

Honestly never thought I'd see myself on a Yamaha. I used to hate them. BUT, then again, I never thought I'd be a KTM fan either. I was looking at this kit too which would be awesome! Too bad it's pretty expensive.

I don't see why everyone makes them look like the 4 strokes. I like the stock plastics on the YZs.

I think the stock plastics look fine on them too.

I would just leave it stock. Don't spend money on different plastics, get your numbers put on it or maybe new gear.
