[ Ссылка ] [ Ссылка ] How to set up your dirt bike! We are all different shapes and sizes, tall riders and short riders. We will all use our bikes in different ways. So here's a comprehensive guide to setting up your dirt bike with a lighter clutch, good ergos etc. We encourage you to do the free enduro setup mods first then ride your bike for a while before spending money. It is easy to spend a lot of cash on mods that will barely make a difference, including dirt bike tyres. See our tall rider setup video for more information. And now tubes mousse tubliss! Apart from heavy duty tubes, you can also use TUbliss or mousses. Generally speaking, racers and very aggressive riders will benefit from mousses. If you do run tubes, make sure you don't tighten these bolts! If your tyre moves, you won't notice your tube is moving then it will be ripped apart. It's a good enduro setup! First, your hand lever setup. These should be horizontal, or slightly angled down. Learning to ride better will always make the biggest difference! Lets start with ergonomics for your dirt bike setup. This is the relationship between your levers, handlebars, seat and footpegs. The more the bars are angled to the rider, the more inline stability you will have at speed. When the handgrips are actually in line with the forks, the steering is quicker, and this is the positioning we encourage for enduro riding. It also gives tall riders more room on the bike with handlebar setup. Roll your bars forward. You can use high bend bars, bar risers, pad the seat higher, and get footpegs like the Fastway that drop the footpegs down and back. Some riders angle these at 45 degrees but it only encourages bad body positioning. If you have long fingers, consider moving the levers in so you have more leverage with your fingers for your enduro setup. Speaking of lighter clutches, some beginners like to install an autoclutch. Speaking of crutches, some beginners can benefit from the G2 Throttle Tamer. It gives you much more throttle control at lower revs, and takes away that snappy throttle response common with some fuel injected four strokes. We recently did a video about full wrap handguards versus the plastic flag style ones on most new dirt bikes. Each has it's pros and cons. See our video about which will suit you best. Dirt bike tyres. Everyday riders obsess about tyres way too much. Sure there are different types. Some might suit you a bit better. But your riding skills will make a much bigger difference. But you never see anyone obsess over riding skills. Sigh. For enduro riders, I believe air pressure makes a bigger difference than dirt bike knobbies, especially if you want good traction. Look into heavy duty tubes, soft mousses, or the TUbliss system if you want to get obsessive about tyres. Personally we like old worn out dirt bike knobbies as they force us to ride better. A lighter clutch. You can use plumbing tape or electrical tape under your lever mounts for your lever setup so the levers will spin in an accident instead of breaking. If you have short fingers, you can buy this style of lever so it's easier to reach. Handlebar setup. Draw line from your forks to your handgrips. Explore your tubes mousse tubliss options. Suspension for your dirt bike setup. We believe the suspension on most dirt bikes is pretty good nowadays, and you won't need to spend a lot of money on suspension setup. See our suspension setup video, do I really need suspension mods? Another example is handguards for your dirt bike setup. How to set up your dirt bike with your handgrips. It's a good idea to put some wire around your handgrips to stop water getting in and suddenly they are rotating while you ride. Rear brake positioning for your dirt bike setup. Riders who sit most of the time often set the angle very low but it's difficult to use the lever when standing. Are you a short rider? You can shave some foam from your seat to make it lower. The short rider can increase the sag on your rear shock, and slide the forks up through the triple clamps. As your skills improve, you will use your clutch more and more. If your bike has a heavy clutch pull, there are mods to make it lighter. You can just add washers to lighten the springs, change to lighter springs, use a Midwest clutch lever, or go for the expensive but awesome Clake One Light Clutch.
