Yeah, I used to have this that I bought from Reyn on CF and sold to Riceaholic. I used to raise some major hell on it, and this thing is way faster. I'll probably use engine ice, it used to keep a 2 stroke that majorly overheated with normal coolant from doing so. The rear shock does feel a little loose for me since I'm a 200lber. Can I just adjust the nut on it to make it ride tighter? Don't know shit about suspension.

I rode on stock susp at 200+lbs in full gear. It's a tad soft also, but I just left it.
You can either redo it for your weight, or try full stiff compression/full soft rebound on the stock internals. May or may not work. |

I'm hoping to hit 220 within 6 months so I'll def wind up doing something. I think I'm going to take the plunge with this bike. The only thing I'm hung up on is a 07 SXV450 Aprilia SM with 2500 miles and good pressure tests from the factory(blacks sealant) and a new starter. He wants 4k though.

I love my RSVR and I'd love an SXV, but 08+ only if I had a choice. There were 3 07's on Craigslist recently, all 07 with black sealant. I think only 1 has sold so far. They have a permanent thread on "problems" for SXVs on the AF1 forum. A major turn off, if they're that finicky, it's not worth it to me. |

I saw that. I think I'll just get the CRF and spend the extra 1k on upgrades.

How often do the valves need to be checked?

I know someone who rode their 2002 YZ450F for all of 7 years before checking them. BTW here's a step by step with pictures that I used to check mine. http://crfsonly.com/howto/crf250x/cr...adjustment.php * crfsonly.com is a good place for parts too, but their limited in Supermoto specific stuff |
