Craig_Whitfield Added a reply to Cone valve vs Shim stack!!
1/24/2022 1:03pm What did you notice on track with the shim stack vs cone ? I’m in England so considering this change, hoping to get a more planted feel
Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread Cone valve vs Shim stack!!
1/24/2022 11:27am So I’m just curious to know what you guys use in your cone valves ? Do you use the actual cone or have you switched to the shim stack mod? I’m currently running cone but just wanted to get some feedback as I’ve heard people running shim stacks, what’s the advantage of this ?

Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread KTM/HUSKY teams all using a new triple clamp ?
11/15/2021 2:09pm I’ve noticed that a lot of the KTM/HUSKY teams are all using what looks like the powerparts triple clamps ? Just finished watching “Red Bull Moto spy” and couldn’t help but notice. Looks like a similar design to the xtrig mounts ?

The spark plug caps are notorious for cracking in a crash, I don't know how or why. But that might be what happened to yours if it seems like something electrical.

Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread 21 FC250 bogging/cutting out in corners
7/18/2021 1:27am I just started having this problem yesterday, it was a very hot day for the UK at 31 degrees c and I did crash but nothing major. I went back out in the late afternoon and when tipping the bike over in left hand corner it bogged down massively and cut out then going back to the pits if I...

Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread Cone valve problems weird noise
6/19/2021 11:42pm I was out riding yesterday and went to adjust my fork height and ended up taking my forks fully off the bike, anyway I heard a funny noise and as if the spring is hitting the top cap ? If I took the forks off and tapped them on the ground (was on the grass) you can hear the spring...

Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread 2021 air forks on fc250
5/17/2021 12:23pm So I’m lucky to have a 2021 bike and the new style cone valves (xact) On the weekend I decided to take my cone valves off and try out the new air forks and honestly quite surprised how good these were, I still got the usually quick deflect off square edge stuff but I thought these were really good. Cones...

5/11/2021 11:11pm Hello. Unfortunately I lost my phone that I had all my pictures on for rebuilding my bike back up and the connector in the pictures is confusing me. Can someone tell me if this is meant to go to the top of the throttle body ? See photos If it’s the one in the photos I can not get it...

Craig_Whitfield Started a new thread Front Tyres/tires for hardpack
4/27/2021 10:50am Little confused on tyres and I think in the UK we might be doing it all wrong I’m currently using a mx33 that came with my 21 FC250 but according the the charts that’s for soft - medium terrain ? Should I be running a hard front tyre? I’m mainly riding hardpack, starts off loose but quickly becomes rutty but...

Any soil tracks here that allow quads are bluegroove. As the quads slide around the corners they push all the soil outside the track. Just leaving the hard clay base. A lot of track owners are to chesp to buy any soil or do any maintenance work so they just leave it. They see having no soil as a lot less maintenance & levelling because there isnt any ruts or berms to level. I hate quads!!!

Craig_Whitfield Added a reply to Front Tyres/tires for hardpack
4/27/2021 8:26am That was a interesting read thank you for those suggestions I’ll certainly try them all out. I personally like a good grippy front end feel, planted and this gives me good confidence to really try and push myself. I’m currently needing a new front tire so probably give the MX53 a try and maybe the rear to. I’m 172 -...

The MX53 front has quite wide knob spacing and tall skinny knobs for a hard pack tire. So it doesn't pack too badly and crosses over to soft conditions pretty well. On the flip side, the MX33 has pretty wide knobs and does a good job crossing over to hard pack when needed. To me, it really just comes down to "feel" between the 2. You said you are on a new FC250. The front tire feel and cornering on these bikes is very sensitive to setup. Play with your sag and don't get hung up on having to be...
