One of the guys in our group had the new XT500 while the rest of us were riding DT400s. He was a wild guy and a top notch rider and modder. The "superTrap" muffler was the first mod, an oil line tap...

Always good to be welcomed, Thanks.

I appreciate the suggestion, several have commented on the superior customer service at CSC. The used bike market is unquestionably INSANE right now. Knowing what it takes to refurb a used machine,...

Somebody else's problem now!

Swing arm linkage bearings and bushings have been a bigger problem since the advent of the mono shock. I like the mono shock architecture, simplifies adjusting, assures equal tension side to side...

I'm subscribed to Motocheez. He's enlightened me a great deal.

I'm really thankful for these content providers on youtube. I've watched several videos on these budget bikes and have learned a lot from the reviews. Some owners torture these bikes far more than I...

Doh! Enduro. You mean me or the bike? I'm mostly over that!

Hey, thanks for the tips. A tinkerer I am, will always be, can't change that ... My days of hard rides and wearing down mountains while thrashing machines are behind me. I've owned and/or ridden...

I don't doubt my...

Can you expand on what you mean by higher quality?

Thanks for the link, yes I've seen these also. All the Chinese imports, for the last 13 years it seems, use the same CG engine, that's great. The engine is probably the least of my worries. The...

Great picture! I'm surprised it's just a Magician and not Uncle Sam! The fact is, even those of us riding other brands, are riding Chinese made bikes.

Head Scratching New member in Ohio. Convince me to buy Chinese please.

I've been looking over these Chinese bikes for months and I'm certain that they offer the lowest initial cost of entry into new small bikes. Mods money goes pretty quick with any brand and these...
