    Hey adam, I’ve been watching you since I was roughly 7 years old, I’m now 16 and racing motocross. You’ve motivated me to get this far and I love all you’re videos, I have a 2019 ktm 125 two stroke. When ever I feel sad I just get on here and watch one of you’re videos and it cheers me right up. I love you’re videos mate.

      51 here I’ve slowed down a LOT from when I was racing here in So Cal. Funny thing I’m still faster then 3/4 of my buddies. I love it when I break out my 93 CR250R two or three times a years “Is that a 500” no it’s a 250 “damn your hang with all of use on 450s” yea I am lol

    Great video w perfect amount of reality based info and sweet ride footage, always fun. One thing that I try to do before any rear suspension tweaks in order to soften the harshness of a motocross bike turned enduro, was to run an 18” rear wheel assembly, usually with a big fat juicy tire one that works for the type of terrain you are riding, it will change the feel out back instantly. Test it out to see if you need to spend the bucks on new spring and valving etc. Wheels aren’t cheap but lacing up your own using the stock hub is cost effective and a good thing to learn how to do. Plus you have more options for enduro type tires w 18” rather than 19”. Thanks for the video Adam cheers from Canada

    i transform a YZ 250 to an enduro for european race
    pretty much did the same as you - flywheel of 11oz is just a blast give the bike a better feel when cornering at low speed
    for me you also need to change the fuel system and ad a "reserve" and you can heat the tank in a proper way and extend the volume of fuel by 2L otherwise 50km max with the stock one.

It's got good power delivery after adding a fuel injection controller. With that being said, your videos are an asset to our growth in this sport. Please keep your awesome videos coming I'm always looking forward to the new ones. Much mahalo from the boiz out here in the middle of the ocean in Hawaii.

    Thanks for doing these videos Adam, they are top notch! I am 44 years old and also from the days of enduro conversion bikes.
    Other than the newer bikes having a nice 6-speed wide ratio transmission compared to the 5-speed on the older bikes, I think those older motocross bikes converted to enduro can work just as well as the newer bikes. I had a 99 CR 250 we converted to enduro. One of the best bikes I've owned!
    After riding 250 and 300 2-stokes for over 25 years, including a handful of enduro and desert races on them, I decided to try something ultra lightweight. So I am currently riding a 2019 KTM 150 XC-W. Super playful and fun to ride! Maybe consider testing one and doing a video on one. Obviously not a lot of bottom-end torque, but surprisingly useful and strong mid-range, and threatens to knock you off the bike in the top-end. :)

  • @MrKdr500
    @MrKdr500 4 года назад +3

    You need to try a Lectron, i run them on all my 2 strokes now and they really smooth out the top end hit when standard carbs come on to the main jet. You'll get people saying "you don't need them or there not worth the money" but anyone who has actually used one will never say that. There's a reason why every rider in the AMA allstars 125cc series and redbull strait line rhythm runs them...... cheers

    Hi Adam , yes growing up through the eighties most of us had 2 stroke MX bikes that we used successfully in enduros . As a teenager I used a 1983 CR 125 then later an IT 490 k ( an enduro bike I know ) and now I have a 2007 CR 250 and I have done similar modifications as you have . The CR is an animal but it is so much fun ! Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work 👍

    Dirt bike riding is the Secret ingredient for age prevention.

I ride a yz250x its an enduro weapon but there are a few things missing. ! you should do a review on it and tell Yamaha Australia to put a wet clutch on it and electric start on it get the ball rolling.

    One of your videos motivated me to buy 2002 Honda CR250, I rebuild it completely. I have KTM EXC 300 2020 also and I like it. But sometimes I choose CR250, this bike is so emotional, always smile after riding it. It feels like a wild animal compares to KTM.

    I think when you get started in enduro or hare scrambles, a softer suspension is nicer to learn on. Once you get faster, you start blowing thru your suspension and then have to upgrade. Thats how it evolved for me anyway. Also, racing on the East Coast of the US, expansion chambers were like upper skidplates 🤣. I went thru at least two pipes a season from being bashed or cracked.
