Amen SPud!
highest priced and MOST maintainance, period.
However, what a joy to ride ![]() Resale suffers a bit though, and monthly maintainance AFTER "trade in", ESPECIALLY when for a newer model, the monthly maintainance is outrageously expensive...seems NEVER ENDING!! ![]() |

![]() Are you going to switch to a 21-inch front wheel? If not, which of the 18-inch front tires do you like?

I know I'd like to switch to a 21" front wheel. Is it better to buy a new 21" wheel or re-lace the 18" stock wheel to 21"?

21" rim
Spud, thats really good of you to post up all that work for us. Thank you!
I would definitely want to add the 21" option at some time when budget allows, but would pay for the hub now if you do a GB or order them so you aren't out the $ for mine. Please keep me posted and let me know when/if you go forward with this. Also, I'd really like to go tubeless so a tubeless rim would be they wat to go for me. Wouldn't that lower unsprung weight also to eleminate the tube? Probably will add the tubliss system on rear for a while, if that system works well. (or whatever is best easiest and reliable system. I like being able to air down and still run when in some offroad situations, also. Tubeless plugs and a compressor will take up less space than tubes and tools I'm thinking when riding out. |

Great rider checking our bikes out:)
I have a friend, from 40+ yrs ago, one of the best street and off road riders I ever saw ride. He rode a 500 Kawasaki triple in HS and raced mx for the regional Yamaha and Kawasaki teams back in the day.
He is a bit skeptical but I sent him links etc so it'll be interesting to see his comments after reading the tests and blog etc. AND riding my bike when I get it here also ![]() He's one of those guys who'd wheely by at 50+ mph on the Kawasaki, and I know the story is legit cause he passed me doing it. He's stand on the back passenger pegs and just wheely for 1/2 mile or so (it seemed ![]() Unreal..unreal he never had a serious crash on road, ever ![]() ![]() |
