EX in tractor mode

[Oded]

The Alta is terrific in tractor mode - steep loose rocks and gravel hills.
using the clutch in such terrain is quite tiring.
this video is from today. trust me, the incline is much steeper than it looks..

Which one is your "Tractor Mode"? Map 1?

For the terrain in the video, map 2 is my favorite. For hill climbs with more open gas - map 3.

However, it all comes down to how delicate you are with the throttle. Its resolution allows the bike to crawl up loose terrain.

Nice video! Which hand guards are you running?

Wow, do you ride that type of terrain regularly? Im an offroad guy, and prefer my rides/races to be the harder the better, but what youre riding is pretty extreme.

 

[Oded]

Hand guards are Cycra probend. Fits well.

I also ride smooth single trails, but rocky climbs are definately what I am aiming for. My favorite.

a longer video showing some enduro riding (and few falls) with the EX & KTM 250.
so much fun!

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

Great Video! I see a trend....Since I got my Alta, I have notice that fall nearly every time I ride. My riding has become more "Erzbery" since the bike just a "point and shoot" machine.

I attempt more logs, creeks, hills, rocks than I every did on my ICE bike. Torque + No Clutch = HERO RIDING.

My post ALTA purchases have been more protective gear. Knee Pads, Padded hip shorts, Elbow Pads, Bark Busters, SXS Skid Plate, plus I find myself watching more Graham Jarvis "how-to" videos.

You are absolutely right! The Redshift makes hard enduro, a little less hard
