Might have to try since i have the next week off to play around with it....just painted the muffler last night a titanium color to get rid of the rust and i must say it looks very nice against the white panel and black frame

I'll bet pipe looks good. Oh yeah, with stock dog bone on I checked and suspension guy has my forks raised 10 mm from top triple clamp, that's 10mm from triple clamp to top of fork tube, not including the cap. My bike has never turned better, feels "right" to me now. For what it's worth...

Sweet Race Gas, have you seen the 2019 street legal six speed CRF 450L? Looks sweet but one could buy two KLX's for same price. Around $10,500. Other than price, looks extremely well executed.

Yes I watched a few you tube vids o n the new crf. It’s a sweet looking machine. I wanna see what the aftermarket comes up with for this bike. I’m sure it’s gonna become a big seller

Then measure up the wire from the tape 30mm and suck it out, maybe there is an easier way, I don't know...

Just took about 8ml out of each fork and boy what a difference just sitting on the bike.....Much much plush and ill be testing it out tomorrow

still hits pretty hard on the sharp bumps....the oil looks like it needs to be changed and maybe more taken out. Rollers it glides over now

Glad it's a little better, you'll know too much oil is out when the forks clang when topping out.
