@@micahnuckols5046 Sorry about that. Should be better next time. :)

@@DirtZen All about the mirrors!

Thank you sir! Looking forward to future rides with ya!

XTrainers are a great bike to learn on. I highly recommend them. Go for it and have fun!

Thanks Fynn! Yep love the giant loop bags. I run them on all the bikes now. Super easy access to the phone or what ever smaller items needed up front..

Congrats on the trainer! I'm in north scottsdale area.

@@jm6918 You mentioned Mike at dirt riders West. That's where I'm getting my bike from! From the conversations I had with him seems like a great dude! I'm very interested in the suspension upgrade you did. That's something that's on my radar to do on mine at some point. Do you mind me asking you what it cost to do that kyb fork?

@@OdysseyOffroad Mike is awesome! He's helped me out a lot and always continues to do so. I think the total was 4300 for the KYB and Ohlin rear? The xtrainer fits me so well that I just figured, the heck with it and I'll go all in on suspension. Unfortunately with the fires closing areas down, I haven't tried them out as much as I'd like. let's hope wildcat opens back up in a few months.

@@jm6918 I didn't realize you had wildfires up there in Scottsdale. I'm down in the Tucson area plenty of riding here

Congrats! They are great bikes no doubt. Have fun!

Haven't tried the Shinko yet. One of these days.

Shinko is awesome for PA in the rocks and mud

Hello James, I also have a 28in inseam and was considering getting this bike. I'm afraid it may be too tall. Are you able to reach the ground with both feet? If so how much? Thank you

XTrainer is very mellow stock. Lots of great torque but not intimidating at all. Definitely something to look into.

Thanks! Don't think we've had an easy day yet! 🤣

Natural A/C! 🤣

Agree! Had a lot of fun and look forward to the next ride with you guys!

Yes sir! Too much fun.

Oh yeah. Never gets old out here.

Yes they are! Never get tired of them.

Haha! Plenty of dumb to share. Any time!

Definitely vacation out here again! Too many trails here to keep you busy. XTrainers are no joke. Probably one of my favorite bikes for technical single track and hard enduro terrain. Regrettably, I sold mine but I'm really thinking to get another. In fact I probably will. Just such a fantastic low seat 300 2T to goat around on. Thanks for the comment!

This is in the Arizona Wildcat OHV area and in that general area. There are a lot of trails that branch off of each other and further down the main sand wash to the Verde River.

​@@jm6918Hey, I live off of 136th, just picked up the same bike. Message if you need a riding partner.

@@justincase3256 Sorry I missed this. Thanks! For sure we should meet up some time.

Thank you sir!

I did. In fact I sold a bike but picked up a 2023 450 instead. The 350 was definitely a top choice, but I found the 2023 450 for 3k less than normal and all 350s were 2024. I don't have any seat time on the 350s unfortunately. Like you said, 350 is what most suggest. The 500 is extremely capable no doubt. I have the GET ECU from Taco Moto Co and that really wakes up the 500. It's super friendly, lots of torque and yet the top end doesn't seem to stop! It's unreal when you want it to be. It's very manageable through all the harder enduro stuff I take the 300. The 500 would be the bike I'd pick if it came down to one for everything. Fantastic bikes!

Thanks! Yep 500s are so crazy versatile. They do anything from tough slot canyons to hauling butt back home on the highways! ;)

Thank you sir! Dirt was great. still a bit slick but over all, nothing beats the desert after the rain. Found some great hill climbs for ya!

Yep! lots of great riding near Wildcat.

It's down by the Wildcat area near the verde river

Yes it is. Thanks!

That was awesome! You made Nemesis look easy! I’ve never been up that trail across from Nemesis, only down. GoPro doesn’t do it any justice, those are some steep climbs. Can’t wait to get back to exploring with you, never a dull ride when you say “I wonder where this goes?” 😆🤙

@@DirtZen Thanks! Credit goes to @bartman376 for giving the secret to successful nemesis climbs. Weaving up it makes or breaks the deal. Haha! Yep my goal is to keep it an adventure out there! Many more headed your way 👍

Also, I spied with my little eye that there could be the beginnings of little mini step ups forming on the face of nemesis. Could be challenging in the future.

@@jm6918 Time to get good at step-ups! Good sessions for Megs!

Sure did! World of a difference.

Stock suspension isn't all that bad. But the more I learn and ride aggressive, Yeah you can feel it struggles a bit. But really, the XTrainer will out ride my abilities any day. I'm looking into swapping to a KYB 48 fork soon. Pricy but if it works out, the XTrainer will be a serious trail weapon.

I'd say the XTrainer turns better. It's a smaller size bike than most bikes. The WR handles fantastic though! Much more nimble and impressive than I was expecting for a 4 stroke.

I honestly don't even notice. I want to Say that my KTM 500 has more vibration. Yeah. I don't think it's a big deal.

Thanks! I'd say vibrations are negligible. Honestly, I don't recall ever thinking about it? I've ridden my friends Beta 250 2 stroke and his 390 4 stroke briefly. 250 felt playful and quicker revving than my XTrainer. the 390 felt much more nimble than my KTM 500 exc-f. I have been curious about the 200. Haven't rode one yet but maybe at a demo day some time. Hear great things. Beta makes some great bikes.

Yep that's the map switch. Honestly, I haven't really messed with it all that much.

JD jet kit

@@jm6918 Is that a must for this bike? Is the jetting pretty consistent? Sorry for all the questions.

@@knoxville7477 Not a problem. No, I thought the stock jetting was fine. Never had any issues. I only ordered it when I was going to take the bike up to higher altitudes.

@@jm6918 👍

Yeah they are! Perfect day. Yep it has a different down low grumble and it will rip when opened up. Such a good day today.

My opinion the XTrainer. WR is a fantastic bike 100% but it's a race bike once opened up with mods.

@@jm6918 Did you keep the oil injection on the Beta?

@@knoxville7477 As of now yes. I haven't' had any issues but I often think about doing the delete.

@@jm6918 Thanks for the info! I'm interested in both of these bikes. Not sure if I could use to the jerky stroke power. Have you tried different maps to smooth it out ?

@@knoxville7477 I replaced the stock ECU and installed the GYTR. I think that helped some of the jerky feel? But I haven't tried any of the maps yet. The XTrainer is way less tiring as well. I love the smooth torque it produces. WR it seems you need to work harder in steep ruts/hill climbs. XTrainer will chug right on up. Again, the WR is an amazing bike! If your trails are more open, WR rips. If you do more single track technical stuff, the XTrainer really shines.

Thanks! Just go out and have fun with it! They are fantastic bikes. Super easy to ride. I'd recommend Seat Concepts short seat if you feel like it. I have one and it really helps out. Then mousse bibs, FMF S/A, hand guards, pipe guard and skid plate for the basic protections. Check out Wildcat OHV. We love riding there. So many great flowing trails. You'll love the bike I bet. Thank you and have fun!

@@jm6918 I just put a down payment for a 2024 Xtrainer 😍 and got the option to install the 1” lowering kit from factory at no labor cost, just buy the parts. Once I feel comfortable I can install the original one. I went with DIRT RIDERS WEST here in north Phoenix. Very easy to work with them! Can wait to see those 2024 arriving here in USA! 💪🏼

@@Cohobapr Congratulations! I think you'll be super happy. Mike is great to work with. He has gone above and beyond helping me out. Great guy.

@@jm6918 quick question.. what type of spark arrestor are you using on your XTRAINER?

@@Cohobapr Im running the FMF Turbinecore 2.

Such a great day! Hoping for a solid winter and perfect trail conditions.

This bike has crazy good potential! Right now, it's all about making it fit like a glove. I need to get the jerky feeling removed from the throttle and suspension squared away. It's fast, super nimble and has fantastic power and stability. The WR is a force to reckon with.👊

If I can find the boulders again, we'll go. I'll try to pin it on the GPS. The rut is the best and easy to find. No promises on the trees! I hit a canyon wall next to Luke on the Jarvis ride. Just the way it is.

Yeah they really are a great trail weapon. Yep this AM. We usually try to start around 5:30ish? Otherwise, cabin fever really kicks in if not riding.

This is the Wildcat area. Xtrainers are fantastic bikes no doubt.

So good out there :)

Definitely is!

It is! Love the riding out here.

Yes Sir! Decided not to go solo though. Rather not be that guy on the news. I'm curious, have been down that crack on the right? At the 5:05 min mark on this vid? Looks tight and sketchy or if even doable? Maybe a good excuse to film with the drone someday and check it out. My curiosity is strong haha!

@@jm6918 I’ve never been down it. It looks pretty tight!

Oh man😂 So much truth to that! Don't tempt me with the T7 lol

Done deal 🤛
