Winter Dirt Bike Maintenance
I’m on a 2018 Husqvarna tx300 with 70 hours right now and racing Open B harescrambles. I will not be lucky enough to purchase a new bike for the 2019 season like many racers do, and I was wondering if anybody had suggestions for maintenance beyond what the manual suggests or upgrades to ensure 0 mechanical DNF’s in 2019. By the end of the race season, I suspect I will have 207 hours on the bike. Thanks!
MX pants for thick thighs?
I have a pair of O'Neals that are pretty rugged, but relative to the waist size,  the upper thigh part is tight. Is there any particular brand of MX pants that have more leg room?  Anyone else have the small waist/thick thighs syndrome??

GM 5.3 or 6.2 liter?
Gonna be in the market for another half ton here soon.  Is it worth it to have the 6.2? The extra torque would be nice, I do some moderate towing here and there.  My current 2002 5.3 I have to drive in 3rd when towing over 3000 pounds or it shifts too much, I think with the new 6.2 it would be a breeze. Concerns with the 6.2 is worse fuel economy (but mabey not?) and that it "requires" premium gas.  I have access to E30 here which 95 octane so that that should be a great replacement for premium since I do not plan on paying extra for premium ever.  I know I sound cheap ass but buying premium all the time really adds up.  If its going to be a big deal I will just buy a 5.3
Finding the solution to arm pump
I know there’s a few of you out there that are just like me. I can’t go 1 easy lap without my arms pumping up to the point where I can’t feel my clutch lever or keep the throttle steady. Gonna attach a picture of my hand after doing one lap below. I wanted to kinda document my strategies to get rid of arm pump, or at least lessen it, as well as have your guy’s input and your own tricks posted. Note that I am not out of shape, I use every muscle in my arms and legs daily at work and I ride my dirt bike almost every weekend and my bmx bike the days in between.   Th first “solution” I am going to try are Steg Pegz on my yz250f. I have them installed and ready to rip this weekend. I’ll post an update when I have one
Toy hauler for less than 20k
Looking for a toy hauler for less than 20k that I can use for traveling for races.  Not looking for anything fancy. Enough to sleep my wife and 2 kids, kitchen, bathroom, awning, and room for bikes and tools.  Any reccomendations?  Also is shopping for one of these like buying a car where they are marked relatively high and can be bargained down?

400l sport polaris 97
I got this 97 400l and cleaned the carb got it to run. Someone removed the airbox and installed an air filter that is too big. I had it off a choked the carb off with my hand and it reved better so i put a thick sock on the filter. It started to idle and runs smooth. I think im getting about 50mph out of it. It doesn't respond to the last 1/4 of the throttle.  Can any one tell me how to clculate the right size air filter?
Trx400ex.. Random wire?!
Just picked up a 2004 400 ex for 500$. As I got it home and was looking I found this random wire hanging down, (circled in red) it obviously doesn’t go there and was wondering what the heck it is? Also the spot circled in green there’s a little bit of exposed wire, is this a problem when washing? Is there anything I should know before washing the bike?

Cant find anything with the search option
Hello, everytime I try to search for something I can never find anything close to what I'm looking for. I know the information is there because Google tells me TT has what I'm looking for. For example, if I search "Chinese knockoff keihin pwk airstyker carburetor" nothing even close pops up, no matter if I search posting title only or topic or whatever. I know that's a name of a posting. Can you guys please fix this issue? It would make finding info a lot easier and keep multiple repeated threads from being made. Thank you
Can’t Post Pics From App (iOS 12.1)
Hey TT,   Sorry if I’ve overlooked the article or haven’t searched well enough, but does anyone else have to try desktop mode to post pics in topics?   Seems like the buttons may be hidden near the bottom in the app or something.. any thoughts or input?   -Dave
