    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!!

    while we're taking the piss out of cheese - cheese u r a pussy

    seriously tho, had a bit of a play on the bike today down on the dunes at the beach 2 minutes from my house and id say the bike is not up for any sort of trail or enduro riding with the gearing set so high.

    it is however just right for what im intending to do with it, and thats have a go on the speedway circuit on a trial run of what may be a new class - mx bikes

    Are you trying to save on fuel Sam lol?Or is the CR so powerful that you have to tame it a bit with long legs. Shall we call you "Overdrive" from now on mate?
    Whether you think you can or cant - you will always be right.

    I've riden with boom and he can handle the instant on type power much better than cheese or me or most people!
    Your bang on actually Blacksmith a huge amount of people tame it with long legs (overdrive) its essentually not an Enduro bike its a pure MX bike. A 14T front is a pretty standard mod for the CR250. Same power pretty much as a 450 4 stroke but it delivers it an one hell of a bigger rush!! The 14T smoothes this quite a bit, more than B000M likes by the sound of it, but it was real good for me.

    lol, but if you read my post above you would see im attempting to set it up for the correct gearing for a speedway track. i found it bloody useless geared as it is for banging around the dunes. but as far as an open track goes then the 14t should be the tho

    Did some flat-track racing earlier this year (Nelson club centenary at Richmond Racecourse) and it was a lotta fun. The 200 was geared up quite a bit, via a smaller rear sprocket from the road KTM. Borderline geared too tall, I think. Shame it was essentially a one-off event, I'd do better now I reckon after talking to a speedway rider about technique.
    Cheers,
    Colin
