Just don't hit any jumps or big drops. Low-ish speeds might be fine, I have a friend that bought the MX soft (harder than the EX soft) for his son who weights half his weight and says its fine for him over 110kg taking it easy riding through the forest. I'd ask the dealer to fix the error and...

Looks good, specs seem nice. I think i'm in danger of having multiple bikes again. I'm looking forward to the release of the Royal Enfield Himalayan (Him-E). Looks like we are about to get a whole range of great bikes competing for market share.

I think getting medium suspension at 195 was a mistake, especially as you say once you get geared up and add anything else to the bike. Glad you got it sorted mate. I got the hard suspension and it's slightly too soft still for the riding I do.

sounds solid to me.

Yes, This is the disc I ordered. I got the KTM brembo spacer. part number 77013914000. The disc is 4.5mm while the stock is 3mm so there was a little rub on the caliper spacer at first. I shimmed the wheel 1mm away from the disc side fork, but eventually removed approx 0.5mm of material from the...

looking on Starks site, you're right. Don't buy it from Stark then for your EX, it won't fit. Buy the DF606SM, that's the one I got and its about 2/3rd of the price.

I have the same disc. I paid much less, under 200 euro. Stark is pretty good on their pricing mostly, but there is a clean misalignment here. Also, I've seen you say the stark SM wheels are a good price, and they are not too bad. But once you add up the cost of the tyres, tubes (or tubeless...

I really should do this too.

Ok, so I figured I'd download a template and play around making some graphic cause I haven't been able to find exactly what i'm after. But 40 USD just for a template! If anyone has one they can send me i'll gladly send some beer money.

I went with a 4.5 so I could mount either 140, 150 or 160. But i'm happy with the 150 I have right now. if you go for the 5 inch rim, you pretty much only have 160 option.

The Gray Ghost this one?

I believe they should, Phantom has the same dimensions. Surronster also got 5inch forged on his varg from warp 9. He did have trouble getting them on and took them to his mechanic to finish the job.

where did you get those sliders from? are you happy with them? hope you haven't had to test them yet on any big slides tho :)

Its creeping into negatives (celcius) overnight here in Norway, so I moved the bike inside into the spare room as my garage isn't heated. Lets see how the misses reacts 🤣

It was fine over the summer, but early autumn mornings and evenings the bright light, which is just above my mirror, does seem brighter than it needs to be.
