    This piece of machinery is SWEET - Redshift EX

    The PDF manual says 80ml. I was only able to fit in just a bit over 70ml to the top of the sight glass. Maybe 120ml is when it is fully dry?

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    Thanks for the specs! Now I just need to find out two things: A) What the heck do I have in my shock (MXR #323) B) Is this new spec any good? The stock spring is 60 N/mm. Why did you try the 64 N/mm spring before you tried 62 N/mm? Just curious. Did they revalve your fork as well?

    Yes, I heard the Rapid charger can charge the A-batties faster as well, but only the R-batteries can use its full capability. It might make a difference for me when I have only a narrow window to charge between the races or practice sessions.

    This piece of machinery is SWEET - Redshift EX

    Welcome to the Forum, Duncan! That's a pretty comprehensive review that you have here, I like it! The 4CS: I really like how Alta tuned it for trail riding. I suspect the MX and the EX might share the same suspension settings. I had to add more spring and damping for motocross, but I wish I...

    My first love

    That's a Dodge Stealth (aka Mitsubishi 3000GT). The same 1995 vintage as the CR250.

    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

    Does anyone know good Dyno motorcycle capable shops in the SW Michigan or in the northern Ohio? It would be great to also throw a stock 250SXF on that same Dyno as well. And a 250cc 2-stroke.

    Drag Racing MX vs MXR

    Alta says my order qualifies me for a free standard charger. They just need to work it out with the dealer who says he paid for it. Perhaps I should raise the price on my 2017 MX to $11,995.

    The Quietest MX track day ever!

    The three 240V generators by the Alta tent were the loudest.

    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.

    Coolant pump

    If it starts to sound louder, check the coolant level. https://altaownersforum.com/threads/low-coolant-in-new-mxr.78/

    2017 vs. 2018 Battery Packs (differences?)

    The (not totally) unexpected conclusion that we reached today was that the MX and the MXR have the exact same power. If there is any difference at all, then it can be easily eclipsed by the rider right wrist's throttle twisting skill. I will be posting a video soon. Just need to learn how to...
