    Who are you getting it through? Triple X?
    I think the sixdays have different suspension valving, galfer wavy rotors. Probably some other stuff I cant remember
    we may just go where no ones been

    Yep, looks like a gun barrel when you look down it.
    Sounds more angry MX style than Ktm.
    Pics tomorrow when I pick it up.

    First ride impression...... Wow!
    Vary agile and responsive. was only riding around the grass and trees behind my work.
    Motor feels strong but I only had it on the softer Map setting.
    Brakes touchy. Suspension?? No real test for it.
    No pics yet as I didn't have the camera with me.
    Sunday it will be getting the first real ride at riverhead. Should nearly be broken in.
    What oil and mixture are you other Gasser guys running? That GRO stuff at 50:1 was recomended.

    The GRO stuff is hard to find, most guys run either 40:1 or 50:1. Not really a big issue.
    Just use a good synthetic really.
    I use Motul 800 at 40:1, I like using more oil, better protection in theory

    Congats on the new bike, the same bike that won the sixdays, outright

    Good to hear you are rapt with it. The guy who owned my bike before me ran it on 45:1 full synthetic (can't remember his brand preference), since he owned the bike for a few years I've followed his recommendation, except I use Motul 800. He had recently changed the piston and said the old one looked sweet as. The jetting seems spot on for my riding ability too, there doesn't seem to be a flat spot anywhere that I have detected. A bit of splooge does come out of the exhaust but he said it never fouled a plug, and better to know there is oil in there.

    I was running my Cr250 and the Exc like that! Good Fat power and never fouled a plug.
    Black electrode rather than copper colour and wetish around the outer ring (under the thread).
    Not a bad enduro tuning, nice fat power band and you don't notice it come on pipe so much.
    Seems to be able to chug from any situation with this setting, doesn't wheel spin so readily in the slippery stuff and starts well.

    I've re-tuned now ( cause oldschool was to fast for me) but the above served me well for a long time!!
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!
