I have no firsthand experience with larger front sprockets on the Templar but I recall reading others state that a 14t requires some clearancing of the side case/cover and that a 15t can fit. I...

Thanks. In answer to your spark plug question, all Templars share the same engine and spark plug.

DPR8EIX-9 will work in the ZS172FMM-3A engine. Yes, it is slightly longer than the stock plug but dozens (possibly hundreds) of people have been running this plug without issue. To be safe you could...

I'm a huge fan of fine wire electrode plugs. I ran platinum until iridium came out. I may eventually put iridium in my Templar but thought I'd stick with copper for now, the plug was only $3 and I...

I'm glad to hear that the supplemental air spring is working out for you. It's probably not as good as the proper rate coil springs but thus far it's all we've got. I haven't ridden mine in 2 months...

Yes, use a hand pump. Ideally a bicycle suspension air pump works best since they don't lose air when disconnecting. They use a switch to open/close the valve. I wouldn't put more than 25 psi in them...

Odd that any air leaked out. I've only done this to two bikes now but never had any air leaks from the forks. 20 psi should be very stiff, maybe try 10psi per leg.

You don't need to disassemble much, just place a wrench on the cap and another (14mm?) on the nut just below the cap and loosen. Once loose the cap will spin right off the shaft.

Good news. FWIW I conducted a few polls on several forums where the ZS172FMM engine is common and although the most common jetting is 42/125, there are many folks running 45/130 a few running 135 and...

That sucks! Is your Templar a 2023 model? I've yet to hear of any 2022 templars that don't use JTR897. It's possible that it's a MY change or like you said, they just use whatever hubs they have on...

You'll need an 11/32" drill bit and a drill press is nice but not necessary. The hand pump for my mountain bike air forks works great for adding air.

I'm sorry to hear that the adapters don't fit, the guy on FB said they did. Maybe he just forced them, being AL into AL but I wouldn't do that. You need to measure the thread pitch of the 5mm SIDs...

Jetting depends on a multitude of factors including but not limited to displacement. The Templar PE28 carb ships with a 120 main jet and runs too lean below 1000' ASL. IMO 125 is near the bottom of...
