Hey from Cambridge, England... I am 34 years old, and have been riding motocross since the age of 4... and i ALWAYS ride clutchless, on every single motocross bike / pit bike ive owned... Up and down shifting.. Just rev matching or throttle blipping.... and have not once destroyed a gearbox... I currently have a 2005 Honda CR 250 (because they are getting rare), and after it being nearly 20 years old.. Its still on its factory gearbox setup.. I inspect the gears, shift forks, shift drum etc with every bottom end rebuild.. and none show any signs of wearing... After all these years...
I get the piont your making, but if stomp said dont do it they put the bikes together, they pr9bably have mkre then 70 hours experiance, pot bike gearboxes are notoriously breaking usually 3rd gear
@@motomachinezuk8786 one more thing, can I ask you in your garage you have a big Renthle Handle bar thing stood up on the floor . Where did you buy that from because I’m after bits and bobs like that from my man cave / Garage
By any chance do you know the dimensions of the woodruff key , its not the standard size used in all other motors, sourcing one in the uk seems impossible a certain racing site has a listing for one but i believe it to be incorrect as it wouldnt fit other motors stated,the key way is deeper and shorter
Tried riding 125 lex Moto lxs today it’s a sporty looking road bike I’ve personally never used a clutch on a bike before other than a small pit 110 that I nearly flipped off the back off I done like a circle in a field and it cut out lol but anyway more to the point of the comment now,🤯 How do I get over the nervous clutch issues should I stop riding my ebike for a while first 😂😂😂 any tips bro honestly don’t mind if u can’t make sense of my comment i can always translate through someone else 🤣
I'm gonna try this! I'm not very experienced but on my wpb 190 half the time I've no fucking idea what gear I'm in! Apart from 2nd and probably 3rd which u can tell!
It's definitely worth giving a go and bearing in mind mate. It's not necessary but will add another string to bow. Same, 2nd and 3rd quite easy to know but others not so easy. Let me know how you get on if possible Cheers
It's not you have to use the clutch it's that it's better for your engine to use the clutch, whilst your logic is if you haven't experienced a problem with the engine means it doesn't exist & your an experienced rider now. Not true buddy learn how engines and clutches work before talking about how "In my experience there have been no engine problems with me not using a clutch". Embarrassing logic coming from a claiming "Experienced Rider". So Ignorant...
Was because of you i bought a couple bikes and its worked wonders on my mental health. Keep up the good work 🤝
Good to hear bikes have helped the mind. They do the same for me. Thank you and I appreciate the feedback/positively for channel
Cheers

Hey Moto machines can u put a big bore kit on the 190 and do top speed
Great vid mate 👌 I do the same on my wpb 190
If done correctly its safe on motorbikes. Glad to hear you agree and also change the same way.
Cheers
Can you answer me a question. When you jet wash your pit,bike, do you recommend covering the air filter with a plastic bag or not?
I don't jet wsh it but when I clean it I take air filter off and cover intake with plastic bag and elastic band.

i clutchless shift on my 140 stomp feels fine mate coming from roadbikes its hard not to ahah. another good video johny mate
Wish i could share this comment with my mate,he don't get its the future
I first short shifted on road bike then it's just natural to do on all bikes.
Cheers mate
Mans a beast 💪
im looking to get one these, ive only ever rode my yz125 and im looking for something new and more fun to ride. Would you recomend the wpb 190?
It's not better than a yz125 but it's still fun for the price. Nice little 4 stroke so bit different. Great fun in the in the right place.

I'm sorry I don't mate I've never needed 1 so I don't have a clue if honest.
Sorry I can't help
Can we get that other person to go on the 160 demon and the 170 cc demon for a race
i typicaly use the clutch its just my preferance but if i have to i wont use it or if i snap a clutch or cable
Yes that's all good I know a few who do that. I'm just use to it now.
Cheers for feedback 👍

Like anything mate practice makes perfect. Practice some slow clutch work I'm sure that will bring confidence

I think he’s trying to make everyone fuck There bike up and then cover it up by saying there’s gonna be a few Keyboard commandos
@@Supernova869-s4i 🤣🤣 fr bro

Told by novices. Experienced riders agree with me. Never damaged a gear box on anything
