 Their 4 stroke single cylinder bikes are crazy fun too, their KX110 is insanely fun, comes with a 4 gear box, and a shifter that only does 3, so right off the back, replace the shaft there and youhave a 4 speed, they also make a clutch kit, and a 125 kit for it, and tell you what, even as a 110, that thing packs a punch, second gear lifts the front end without much trouble, and that says a lot about a mini dirtbike... My friend had a YZ450, that thing is a little heavy, but makes up for that in the power, like i have a suzuki 400SM, street-legal supermoto, and i tell you, the power difference is huuge, racing motor makes so much more power, it's amazing... though i have to say, my, to this day, most favoritest thing they have ever made, is the banshee... Fastest quad out of the crate, and can become so lethally powerful, especially with that 610cc kit, it seriously starts scaring the living crap out of people, like a resurrection of a Quadzilla, on drugs. It's seriously insane when your quad makes well over 150HP, when you can shift it in 3rd gear and take off like you were in first, or if you are on the pavement, go, first, second, and while moving at 10-12 MPH shift into 3rd or 4th or fifth (cuz it doesn't even matter), lay on gas, and just bake the tires... oh, those things are insane...

| Resident USSRian | Re: Unblockable popups lol yeah, i ride with those guys all the time, they just don't know how to take good pictures Um, you do realize that there is a reason they use a 4 cylinder fuel injected 4 stroke for that, right? ok, ok, i will explain, since most people have little to no idea how that all works: the first thing that happens to a 600cc bike, such as the r6 you see in the images, the bike gets geared, and by geared i mean, Mark, the black guy you see on the images, runs a 2 down (front), 4 up, setup, which gives the bike a lot more torque on launch. Second thing that happens to the bike is the idle screw gets an extension to a comfortable knob, so you can adjust it at your leasurely convenience, Mark runs the idle at about 3.5k for this stuff, though he does go up or down depending on what exactly he is doing, what that allows you to do is take your hands off the throttle and still maintain the bike up in the air. And that part aint easy either, you are doing a little more then a walking pace, the bike needs to be kept up, at or rather behind the ballance point, and also straight. So what you do is, you launch the bike, meaning rev it up and dump the clutch, careful to give it enough gas to bring the bike to the balance point, then you use the rear break to control how up and down the bike is, you let it go past balance point backwards, and control that you are at the balance point by slowing the bike down with the break (you are constantly on it, more or less). Then there is the task of keeping the bike from falling left or right, and then you start learning how to turn, and eventually get to the point of doing circle wheelies (complicated trick, you go into it by having the bike straight up and down, way past the balance point, and you lean it back and off to the side, while slowing bike, almost to a stand-still, when the bike is at the right angle (at this point falling), you give it gas and it whips the bike around, that jerk prevents the bike from actually falling to the ground, and speed there controls the angle and speed of the circle, newest thing out there that people do is get the front of the bike pretty damn low to the ground for some fast circles, goal is to continue doing that indefinitely, doing continuous circle wheelie). No-handers are rather difficult as well, you exhibit a lot less control on the bike, by letting go of the handle bars all together, takes lots of practice, and how far you go is all dependent on your skill um lastly, you see mark doing a gas hand off seat stander. What he did was put up another master on the handlebars on the left, and ran another break line, to the master on the bottom right, to a longer, and specially-made screw that connects the two brake lines together (one coming from the master up top, to the one going to the rear break), which alows him to control the rear brake from the handle bars. Endo's is perhaps the only trick shown there that you, or anyone who rides, can do on the 250, but again, how most people do endos, is not how stunters do them, most people don't roll once they are up on the front wheel, you also can not roll them anywhere near the length that you can do on a street bike. current world record is over a 1000 feet, you simply don't have that kind of enertia on a lighter bike, such as a 250.... Trust me, i can only roll for a bit longer then 100 feet on a drz-400sm that i ride.... and that's if i bring it right up in top third gear, so about 40-45mph (and that is the only trick i can do better then both mark and jeff (the white guy with the cigarette)), though this guy we used to ride with used to get 200+ foot endos on his r6 at about the same speed (maybe a bit faster) lastly, i wanted to say that it's not that you can't do any of this on a 250, generally though, for stunting, street bikes are the de-facto standard, based on the way they are balanced, which alows them to look higher up in the air, when they are at balance point, they are more powerful, which helps in shows, to get crowd going with some burn-outs, lastly they are a lot smoother of a motor, which helps with riding at high idle, as does fuel injection, like when your bike is up in the air, your idle doesn't just drop when you start running out of fuel in the carb... ---------------- And remember that great question that Pierre-Simon Laplace and Sir Isaac Newton, Andrei Markov and David Hilbert, Richard Feynman and Enrico Fermi, Albert Einstein and Edmund Halley did not come to ask throughout all of their dedication and work: "Who the hell is IMing me?"
