Very interesting video. I have a 290 on my 2018 Husqvarna TE250i, and definitely, it is a nice improvement. For the price, it is probably the biggest "bang-for-buck" thing that I've done on my bike....
Very interesting! Do you have someone in your group using this that does silver/gold level enduro racing? I'm wondering what the impact will be on overall performance and higher rev sections ... Looks great for the crawling stuff, but what happens when you twist the throttle?
It is impossible to ride trails like that when you have people bunched up ahead of you. Spread out and allow one rider at a time to clear the section because momentum is the only way to clear technical sections. Are you required to ride the ruts? Riding existing ruts actually causes more erosion because the extra drag causes more wheel spin. I have done a few hare scrambles and enduros and when you have momentum you can ride around the people that take the main lines and get stuck. For those log crossing you gave to have the front wheel unweighted and enough momentum to carry the real wheel over. I have a 13 oz (370 gr) flywheel weight on my 300 and it's good stuff.
Hi! Thank you for the time and effort in the video! Quick question, the rim tape you used...very interested in protecting my rims, is this worth the spend?
i went with a 12/50 gears on my 450, and it really helped a lot with not flaming out. it did drop the top speed to about 75mph. i had a 14/50 on it, and was maxing out at 93mph. i like the low end grunt it has now
Now after some time of use (if You use them still). Would you still recommend them ? And did you notice that your clutch is wearing faster or something ? I ask cuz in the muddy terrain we ride we slip the clutch 90% of the time we ride…so im curios if extra weight wears the clutch faster…
@@jacodewet3848 It Really depends on where you live. Its usually cost effective to do services etc yourself. And ask a workshop to do more technical repairs.
You paid 5 to 6 hundred dollars for that 😂😂😂 this completely confirm that its a scam this doesn't do anything to your bike but brake it , if you are a new rider and you ride as slow as theses guys don't listen to them don't do this to your bike
@@zackiaryruddick701 I sold that bike with the Disc intact. The guy who bought it from me is now winning races with all still intact. Tangible difference.. I stand by my verdict. ..

Thats awesome. We where very surprised. They work well!
Living overseas for 17 years seeing that landscape breaks my heart
have you tried the Traction Disc, with a fly wheel weight as well ?! (both at the same time)

Accodring to experts. The effects dissapear at higher RPM. Meaning there is no impact on your bikes performance as soon as the RPMs increase.

Are any of you guys still running these ? are any of you running them in YZ250FX's ?
Yes. So many Guys are running these now! Theyre amazing! I know of quite a few YZs running them

How would something like this work on a 450 4 stroke? I need more low revving torqe
It will help. And also prevent those pesky flameouts

Did you find it makes you operate the clutch lever differently or ride different?
No diference in operation. Just improved traction.
@@mostlymotion5068 Ok cool. 👍
Did you install flywheel too?
Only the traction disc
i see the husky came from Gary Whitehouse, i always get from him. And Ivan from Protek.
Now after some time of use (if You use them still). Would you still recommend them ?
And did you notice that your clutch is wearing faster or something ?

I sold the bike with it installed. The guy who bought it instantly rode better. He rides a lot more than i did. Still no clutch issues
Hi there.are u running a rekluse setup also ?
Nope factory clutch
Where would u recommend to service and repairs on a ktm 300 2011 ?

Why would ANYONE want to take that on? That’s way more work than fun.

Thanks for the comment. Hope you can join us for a South African ride soon. To come and show us how its done.
@@mostlymotion5068 who said I can join you in Africa lol do you still have that bike with the clutch weight? Did it brake ?

@@mostlymotion5068 ok I guess he's winning because of the clutch weight 🤣
I hope you didn't sell the bike because it started having problems 💀
