    Throttle tube / ODI Lock-on grips?

    Yes I will be contacting them regarding this issue. Are you saying they are sending you a new throttle and youre putting it on? Seems they would have been insistant of dealer installing it.

    Throttle tube / ODI Lock-on grips?

    Yep that brings it back. But seems odd that after moving it did it? I dont recall my MX ever doing it.

    Throttle tube / ODI Lock-on grips?

    Just got in from riding my EXR. After turning it on and activating, I turned the throttle and it was fine for a few seconds. Then lost all power and the display read Throttle Read Malfunction. Turned it off and back on and its fine now.

    Throttle tube / ODI Lock-on grips?

    I dont think you can even easily get into the throttle as I think it uses security headed screws.

    2019 / 2020 wish list

    The kickstand was part of the reason I upgraded from MX to EXR. I decided years ago Ill never own another bike with a kickstarter and without a kickstand.

    2019 / 2020 wish list

    I just use a simple $12 triangle stand. I make fun of my kid and his friends all the time because theyre perfect image moto guys, and have to have their bikes on a stand at all times. I must be old and crabby, but the last thing I want to do after racing 200+ pounds of bike is lift it up on a...

    Wife's first ride didn't go well — what parts do I need?

    Im of the belief a Helicoil will provide a stronger attachment than it originally had. The existing hole will act as a pilot to ensure squareness.

    Bark buster options for SM?

    Cycra is pretty much the gold standard in barkbusters. I also like the bar tapping option over the cam lock type bar mounts for a more sturdy setup. On my MX I use Cycra Pro Bends with Cycra mounts without issue, cant believe the SM would be any different.

    The last couple sentences give the impression updates can be done via any computer. Very misleading.

    Fod airing it out

    3 years ago I drove from Chicago to SoCal hauling bikes in the moto van to put my knobbies on Glen Helen dirt. Except “sunny california” didnt see it that way. It rained hard for the entire 5 days we were there, and the closest I got was the front gate.

    I really want a better way to get parts!

    Im with ya man, I will sacrifice the bike for my good times at will. When I bought my MX there wasnt even an owners manual available. I emailed Alta and explained the story of buying a 65cc Polini for my kid to race, and promptly sold it because there was zero support of parts, knowledge, setup...

    EX in tractor mode

    Thats pretty gnarly terrain, the kind that makes most guys quit riding dirt bikes.
