Race Tech Suspension Review on KTM 300 and Honda CR250R

First for the 3rd time

i wash i had a dirtbike

my nean is eli

Like the idea of moving the bike down in the front forks.

Just noticed Ktm’s brake line in behind ur Upper headlight plate in the top half and not infront of it..

I had kevin @motoxperts take care of my suspension on a motocross bike to make it tolerable for singletrack and desert, it took a bike that I was considering selling to a bike I enjoyed for a few years. Sam@dirtbike channel rode this bike last summer as we meet on the trail, when he returned it was the suspension that he commented on, he was very impressed by how well MotoXperts had dialed it in.

Race tech gold valves make all the difference in the world! That and the correct springs for your weight.

Why so little riding footage of the CR after all the money and time spent on it? ...Is it your step child? :)

Glade to see you starting to get into bike set up. Also to clarify what changes with rider weight is that after a point maybe 180 or 190 you also need a spring change and once springs are changed the suspension will need everything it needed stock but also heavier rebound dampening.

I'm way outside the "Goldilocks Zone" at 270 lbs. I did buy a new rear spring for my KTM 300 XC W when I bought the bike and it did make a big difference. Should have bought new fork springs too, but I've been losing weight (intentionally, specifically for my riding...started at 294 lbs @ 6'3") and am planning a total suspension revamp once I get to my goal weight of 210 lbs. As a tall, heavy rider I have to do a lot to set a bike up right for me...taller bar risers, tall bar bend, tall seat, adventure bike pegs that move them down and to the rear 1/2" along with the aforementioned suspension mods. It's all fun for me though since I enjoy working on my bikes almost as much as riding them! Then again, I might be selling my KTM when I win the DBC Husky! Keep up the good work Kyle, love your vids!

Very cool

Just had my 15' 250sx suspension done by the motoXperts and what a difference that racetech stuff makes!! And I agree those guys there are great!

Did you ever give your review on the kreft suspension you purchased awhile back?

95mm on the back shock will take the weight of the front wheel...

I much prefer to listen to the bike then music on videos so i hope your not going that way, good luck with living the dream kyle dirt bike channel full timer .

Like ridding mine with blown seals no oil. Makes the Whoops really fun.

On the KTM 300 do you now find the PDS suspension to be equal to the Linkage of the XC after the tuning it's received? Can you compare the 2?

I feel like this is less of a "Racetech" review and more of a "fill in the blank" suspension tuner review. If you are doing it yourself, following Racetech's recommendations, that would be a better review. Also, am I the only one who feels that you should get great suspension out of the box on a top level premium bike?

Who makes the skid plate on the 300?

got my thermos from dirt bike channel a month ago...have used h ot coffee and green tea so far and its the BOMB.....$35 for that thermos is a bargain

please make your graphics kit for bikes other than KTM. Yamaha fans are waiting for ya

Did the rear end of the KTM get lowered a little bit to take care of the stinkbug? I see some companies are doing that. thx!

So what did they do to the xc-w, just play with the valving or did they add parts beyond a GV? Can we get a list of things they did and RT parts added? I need to do something with my 300xc-w as the Xplor fork is not working for me. My love for KTM has taken a big hit and I need to fix that or kick orange to the curb.

Next bike would you go motoexperts or Kreft?

you said it. great customer service. best feature in a tuner. often you'll have to go back in a 2nd or 3rd time for perfection so a local guy who works with you is everything. sounds like a much nicer experience than dick's.

Racetech or Kreft ???? 2017 KTM 300 XC - Race Hare Scrambles and Trail Ride

shitcan that garbage plastic shock adjuster, put an xtrig on it and buy a digital sag setter.....rider sag isn't set it and forget it

Does the ktm have spring suspension or are those air?

MotoXperts did a port/polish job on a 4t head for me 10 years ago. Top shelf.

I really need revalving my CR125r 2005 because the fork is rough and really exhausting to ride in rough terrain. I do not ride MX, i only use it for enduro in low speed.

Could you please point me in the right direction for what valve I should use?
