Xpro Storm DLX 150 Review

Update: fuel mileage stats

On last fill-up I put in .75 gallon and it went 50 miles which translates to approx 67 miles per gallon. The bike holds 1.5 gallons so she should be good for 100 miles to dry, plan to fill-up around 80 miles i'd say to be on the safe side

Those are the exact same figures I'm getting on my Vader 150. Wouldn't surprise me if they both use the same engines.
I did put on a 19t front sprocket, and aftermarket intake and exhaust.

They probably do, although i couldn't imagine being able to fit a 19T front, that and it would have sluggishness, even with the 17T it couldn't handle even slight inclines

I’m wondering if I’ll have to go with a 15t front sprocket. I purchased the 16t, but I want a mix between road friendliness (can “comfortably” hit 45-50 mph) with trail friendliness.

The 16T will fit that bill fine, but experiment and see what works best for the riding you do

I also think the 16T will be the best choice, seems to be the sweet spot for the bike. On another thought, I can’t be the only one that can’t get the kickstart lever tight enough to not rattle? XPRO sent me a replacement and it was the the same fit. Tried squeezing them in a vice but both seemed to be hardened. I have it off right now because I don’t like it vibrating on the shaft and probably don’t need anyhow. BTW EXPRO was excellent in there fast response! My thoughts…

Not sure, my current 1st gear is somewhat like a stock second gear.
If it can't pull a gear, just downshift. You can do that in any gear but first.
It does lose a bit of top speed up a bridge, but not much. Pulls just fine to 7k rpm, but rather sluggish to 7.5k rpm.
