My son and I have been going back and forth on mufflers for his KTM 250 SX-F and have went though about three until we settled on the FMF 4.1. We have tried the HGS (which was good), a Yoshimura, as well as a Pro Circuit system, but for his riding style and what he…
Bolt-Ons
The REC MX Seat Nuts are designed to be an OEM replacement and use the OEM bolts. Chances are if you have a Kawasaki you already have stripped out the threads on the OEM nuts as they are just too soft. The REC Seat Nuts take a little work to fit/press into the rear fender,…
Some muffler questions that get sent to my email inbox usually look like, “which muffler is best for my bike? “Is a full system worth the money or can I just get away with purchasing a slip on”? “Is my stock muffler the best muffler option for me”? Instead of trying to keep answering some…
I have never really had the best of luck with frame tape in the past. Although frame tape works really well, they typically only last one day at the track. I was determined to find something that was better than one ride, so I went searching the internet and ordered up a few different types…
The Akrapovic Evolution muffler system is one of the most beautiful looking systems out there in the market today, is well built, and has quality welds all the way around it. Once hot, the titanium color of the headpipe is the most dynamic blue you will ever see from any muffler manufacturer, which just makes…
Dunlop offers a wide variety of tires for us moto/off-road guys but you don’t see too many reviews of the MX12 scoop tire out there.

I have been looking for some added stability and comfort from my 2021 Honda CRF450R test machine since I got it and although my suspension setting has evolved/improved over time, I still need some compliancy from this machine. I have been working with Adrian over at Ride Engineering on some split triple clamps for over…
The stock 2021 Kawasaki KX450 is pretty damn good machine, but that muffler looks atrocious right? We called up on Yoshimura to see if we can get a more attractive aftermarket muffler system that is actually better than the stock system. I will say that the stock KX450 muffler system works pretty damn well, but…
I will admit that I am usually a stock perch/lever or a Works Connection Elite Perch/Lever kind of rider and although I have tried many different perch/lever set ups those are the two that I normally gravitate towards or back to. I have tested a lot of combos and have come to the conclusion that…
Something that I have been using and quite frankly have forgotten to tell you guys about is the Fasst Co Rear brake Return Spring. Are you breaking rear brake pedal springs on a KTM or Yamaha? I seem to do this every few hours, so I decided to try out Fasst Company’s Rear brake Return…
