    As a big guy looking at a 500 I was concerned. I am not anymore. Thanks so much for the video and the humor!

      I love the big fella’s work. He’s doing pretty well. I defy any of our skinny buggers to do what Ray does while carrying 30-40kg on their shoulders. Great vid.

    You look like a bigger dude like myself. I'm 6'2" 350. Any issues with tuning the PDS rear shock. I'm looking to upgrade from my XR650R and trying to decide between this and a husky FE501.

    Got a 2017 EXC 500 and have the LEXX muffler coming. It has a JD Jetting injection tuner on it. Anybody know what the best setting for that is? I hate the sound of the stock muffler. Hope it sounds more racy now.

      Im not sure how much he paid but I've got the 2012 500 xcw. Nearly 300 hours on her and never once been let down. Never cracked the motor, never a squeal or puff of smoke and valves always within spec. Granted if things do go wrong you likely to pay a bit more but that's a big if.

    If I make this a supermoto and ride it in the street regularly will 15 hour oil changes be necessary?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  6 лет назад

      We'd still recommend every 15 hours. Street, dirt, it's all the same.

    @tombobtail7706 5 лет назад

    Aluminium back sprocket bad idea. Get the supersprox one. Also why would you take one clutch cover, remove it and put another alloy one one. Just install a carbon fiber clutch cover or similar. Too much product placement, not enough advice.

    • @tombobtail7706
      @tombobtail7706 5 лет назад +1

      @Mike Lyons Aluminum sprockets curl over in one ride on big bikes. If not, you are either too soft or riding a 250. Its a lot cheaper to buy a plastic cover than a new engine case. Also maintains your resale instead of selling a scratched up one.
