danny86 Posted April 9, 2010 First off, this bike is AMAZING. The bad stuff though 1. The power band is VERY short, it cuts out really fast. How do I fix it? As cheap as possible ? 2. Is it me or did they make the handle bars shorter ? I feel like my arms are ni a lot more. And thats it haha. But the power band thing is getting old really fast, I dont shift too often because my feet a HUGE and its always awkward/difficult to shift. It may be an excuse as I havent been trained properly.....regardless, I would love a lengthy powerband. Thanks !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmzrider151 Posted April 9, 2010 But different rear sprocket on it cheapest fix. If you have more money, remap the efi. Then a procircuit pipe. Then cams. Yes, the renthal stock bars are short. Sorry, pro tapers are better anyways. lol. Thats an easy fix. And enjoy the best turning/best handling motocross bike. 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To improve handling? If I get longer bars will that effect the handling ? Do I need a PCV to remap the efi ? PCV cost $300 on ebay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyk745 Posted April 9, 2010 For smaller riders, the bars being shorted some works well but I prefer them normal length.. I'm 6' 200+.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nyk745 Posted April 10, 2010 Yea you should, not sure what that you have on it.. the new bikes I believe come with renthal fatbars.. So check and make sure the bar size is the same or you might need to change the bar mounts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
