    what foot pegs are they

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 6 дней назад

      We made a quick video of these foot pegs: ruclips.net/video/PAq3GMO2CM8/видео.html They are from Amazon: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BRFPYWP9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 They aren't the greatest to be honest, but for the money they get you a bigger platform on a budget. As I explain in the video linked above, they cramp the space between the controls and the foot pegs. For my son with a size 10 boot, it works alright, for myself with a size 13, it's way too cramped between the foot peg and shifter lever. We have had some of the teeth/cleats come loose, but they haven't fallen out.

    the head pipe in too skinny , i think , people keep just doing the slip on exhausts , but that head pipe must by holding back some flow to the new muffler , i had a stroker and the headpipe was much fatter, i would figure more flow , i think ?

      It probably does restrict flow. If we wanted to squeeze some more power out of it, we could run a full system with a larger header, but the muffler accomplished what we needed. A little more responsiveness and power and lower temps on the muffler.

    klr 300R has more low end grunt the crf 250F?

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 2 месяца назад

      I haven't personally ridden a CRF 250F, but I have ridden my fair share of 250 four strokes. That being said, the power of the 300R comes on strong at the low end and is very manageable. It's mellow compared to a motocross style bike and puts a lot of power to the ground. I ride a Yamaha WR250F and the power of that bike pulls harder from the bottom all the way up through the high RPMs when compared to the 300R. That being said, the 300R is designed to be more of a trail focused machine and I find it very fun to ride with no lack of useable power on the low end. It won't tire you out as quickly as a tuned 250 either. I hope that answer wasn't too long!

    If you loosen the triple on front you mentioned it raises the forks. Does it actually raise the forks or just drop the handle bar height down?

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 3 месяца назад

      The forks raise up in the clamps, thereby lowering the front of the motorcycle. In turn, your handlebars will be lower in relation to the ground. However, they will not be lower as compared to the rest of the motorcycle (the rider triangle). By raising the forks in the clamps, you are essentially lowering the suspension in the front, very similar to lowering the rear.

    Did you drop the front as well?

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 3 месяца назад

      We raised the forks in the triple clamps as much as possible. You can't get very much out of them, but enough to make a big difference. Without raising the forks in the clamps, it has a strange head angle and feels very low in the back. If you lower the back, adjusting the forks (in my opinion) is necessary.

    Stock sounds better.

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 5 месяцев назад

      I agree, I don't like the sound of the stock exhaust after the baffle/spark arrestor is removed, or the performance. That being said, the exhaust modification wasn't intended to produce better sound. It was an attempt to lower the temperatures of the mufflers (which I stated in the video). We have since installed FMF exhaust on each bike. A Q4 on one and a Powercore on the other. If you want to hear a better tone, we have exhaust sound comparison videos posted, I encourage you to check out those videos. I personally like the Q4 the best.

  • @mclarenhua5985

    After install FMF Q4 Could it help top speed better than the stock exhaust?

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 5 месяцев назад

      I doubt it affected top speed very much, but it was definitely an improvement in power. The bike revs more freely and the throttle response is better with the Q4. Top speed would be more a factor of final gearing, but the Q4 would definitely help you reach top speed a little quicker.

      That is unfortunate. I hope that the dealership you purchased the motorcycle from will repair or replace the motorcycle. I have owned many different brands of motorcycles and unfortunately, with every brand, it is possible that a motorcycle was produced that has quality control issues and problems right from the factory. I have owned a couple different Kawasaki models, and they do have their quirks, but overall seem solid. I hope that your problem is solved and you don't give up on it just yet.

    Ive owned one for 3 years now, heavy but great bike, ive taken it through the ringer. few things ya gotta do i found made a big difference...delete the pair valve, get a better and wider skid plate, new handlbars (stock ones are weak as al dente pasta), drop your drive gear down teeth if you are single track riding, new pipe, and fuel tuner like power commander to compensate for how lean the bikes come. Will help with backfire.

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 6 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the info! They do seem like great bikes so far. Pair valve delete is on the list of modifications and we already have parts for the skid plate (and linkage protector) and re-gearing. Maybe we'll do a tuner in the future as well for the same reasons you mentioned. We've got videos posted of the pipes and small things we've done so far... more to come.

      @bmotomo421 7 месяцев назад

      ​@LagBros_3 I had a 2021 klx300r. At the time, no aftermarket exhaust was available, c0vid era. So, I had to make a complete system for my bike. I first tried removing the stock baffle like you did. But it didn't do much. The pipe I made made a big difference, though. But what really helps that bike us the Dobeck fuel tuner and opening up the airbox. I think I did the pare valve delete kit as well. Also, replacing the o-ring chain with a high quality non o-ring frees up some power. Those bikes are a lot better than they get credit for. The mods I did made it even that much better. It is tall, though. But it's hard to beat for tight trails. Especially for the price.

      @Gigachadly If I remember correctly, right under the seat, you'll see a snorkel and cover. They both should pull out. We work on a lot of bikes, so it's hard to remember exactly. If I'm wrong, yes, you can drill 4 or 5 one inch holes in the top of the airbox. But I would recommend getting the fuel tuner before you do it. Letting that much air in without adding more fuel will lean out the mixture and cause it to run hot. If you are interested in a full system for one of your bikes, let me know. I took the system that I made off before I sold the bike. It's trail ready with a built-in spark arrestor.

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 7 месяцев назад

      That must have been quite a bit of work to build a full system! Sounds like a cool project. I agree, these bikes don't get enough credit at their price point. And yes, there is a snorkel that can be removed, and I'll have to do some research on the pare valve delete. Before I do any of that, I am going to get a tuner as you mentioned. In my opinion, these bikes already seem to run hot so I don't want to make that any worse.

    EJK tuner is what you will need so the exhaust does not get hot. Stock or with the FMF. They run about 250.00

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 7 месяцев назад

      Awesome! Thanks for the info. We have assumed that the exhaust is so hot due to a lean tune from the factory (probably for emissions). The barrel of the FMF exhaust does run much cooler than stock, so it's been a big improvement for now. We haven't seen the EJK tuners before, so we'll look into them for sure. The Dynojet Power Commander is already on our wish list, but now we'll have to compare it to the EJK.

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 7 месяцев назад

      They are heavy bikes for sure. We have videos coming of some FMF exhaust options, they shave quite a bit of weight from up high on the bike, so that helps a little. I don't think there is much benefit to the weight. Maybe a little more traction in certain circumstances? But that's a stretch. We like the bikes for what they are and we plan on keeping them too.

We run the lowered bike back to back with the stock height bike and we actually like it lowered. The tall and short riders we've had on it liked it. It somehow seems to hook up better and lofts the front end a little easier. So it's great for some riders especially with shorter legs.

    • @LagBros_3
      @LagBros_3 8 месяцев назад

      We chose to lower it because we've got some riders that are moving from smaller bikes to full sized bikes. The KLX300R (with a lowering link installed) splits the difference on seat height between a smaller bike and a bigger one. The lowering link actually didn't seem to hinder suspension performance and adds some extra safety for riders with shorter legs.
