    Plug your coolant overflow hose

    According to Alta, the coolant overflow hose is no longer needed and can be plugged. I am reposting this and making it a sticky so that this info does not get lost. It will remain relevant for the 2018 and older bikes for quite some time.

    Water in the rear subframe

    Has anyone figured out yet where to drill a hole to allow all that water to drain? I washed my bike last weekend. At the track today, not dusty, not muddy, perfect. The bike is still clean, but the rear subframe looks like it has been through a mudhole. The water came out and picked up all the...

    Factory developed Redshift MX suspension shim stack specs (UPDATED)

    I realized that not many people have read my long Re-springing a 2017 Alta Redshift MX (and then revalving too) thread. In case you missed it, Alta's factory MX team has developed updated suspension specs for the MX model. They shared it with me, and they said it was okay to share it with other...

    Alta Redshift MXR and MX on a Dyno - Riding Maps Demystified

    I thought, wouldn't it be nice to dyno my two Redshifts? Of course it would! I googled the web and found an interesting Dirt Bike magazine article with all the charts and even numbers of the 2018 model year 450cc motocross bikes. They used an FMF DynoJet dyno. So, I googled and called around...

    Rant: Motocross Action is Boring

    I haven't opened the last two MXA issues yet, and I just received the third one. I am not excited about opening and reading it nearly as much as I have always been. Does anyone else here feel the same way? I am dreading to see another 2018 RMZ review, the exact same review of the exact same...

    Inverters (12V to 120V - 240V) and Step-Up Transformers (120V to 240V)

    I have had a 12-110V inverter in my van for a couple of years. It is a Traveller 3,000W Digital Power Inverter, sold at Tractor Supply for under $300. Initially I bought it to use an electric pressure washer at the track (still need to think up a water tank for it!). It is not a pure but a...

    Lifan 4250 Generator Review

    Well, in my pursuit of newer and better things, I ordered a Lifan 4250 Generator. It was on sale for about $600 at Home Depot. I am very disappointed. Lots of false advertising is involved with this unit: - The core components are exactly the same as on my DuroMax 4400, but at a $300 price...

    My first love

    I had bikes before, but that was just sex. But with this bike I had a real relationship. We spent a lot of quality time together and won many trophies. After I got a hot new 2000 YZ250, and injured my knee on it, I was out for 12 years. Then I decided to rehabilitate my knee and go back to...

    Drag Racing MX vs MXR

    It appears that the MXR has (almost) the same horsepower as the MX. Either that, of my 2017 MX accidentally got flashed with a secret 50hp map at the factory. The MXR in the video was brand new (Jeremy from OH is the owner, he bought it today). Also, my own MXR feels about the same as my MX.

    Availability of Rapid chargers

    Does anyone know an Alta dealer that may have a Rapid charger in stock and available for purchase? I bought my MXR two weeks ago without the standard charger. The Rapid one was not available, and I did not want to pay for the standard one. My local dealer has no idea when he will be getting...
