    Just a tip you can take the pads out of the caliper when attaching caliper to bracket, easier than taking the rotor off when swapping around IMO + you can check your pads :) Love the bike though, I've got a 2014 WR450SM :)

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  7 років тому +1

      main reason i took the disc off was that i found loose nuts when checking the bolts before fitting.. this gave me a chance to lock tight each bolt before final assembly. you can see me adding lock tight as i tighten up the disc bolts in the clip.

    You installed your master link clip BACKWARDS. Very dangerous. Trust me...I did the same thing on my '14 WR450F and mine popped off and my chain broke my crank case, ending up as a $1600 mistake.

    @thomastometich6767 5 років тому +1

    I'm guessing you had to crank the suspension all the way to stiffen the ride? Also, did this lower the front to an uncomfortable level, as you only went down 1or 2 inches in the rear, but 4 in the front?

  • @josemanuellealmarquez7612

    What do you think about which is the best option? to pass to supermotard an XR 150 L or an XRE 300? ... that is a doubt that intersperses the budget but which would be a better option, besides this, this type of bike works well outside the asphalt with street tires? Are they safe in curves and at 120 km / h? im sorry about my english, spanish its better

    don't you have to calibrate speedometer?
    don't you have to stiffen the suspension?
    Is the front brake enough considering you ride faster with the new ratio?

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  7 років тому +2

      +Kayzox yes, with this model you actually need to replace the speedo as they don't have a mode to calibrate it with. With any change to your bike adjusting the ride setup is needed. I always recommend doing one change at a time so you can feel the difference each change makes to your ride setup. The brakes are better now then on the stock setup.

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  7 років тому +1

      no. i found out if you remove the break pads it should fit. i am kinda glad i removed the rotor as it gave me a chance to add loctite to the threads.

    • @dazthecowboy
      @dazthecowboy  2 роки тому

      That's a lot of work for something that would more than likely be more cost effective buying over the counter. You would need to true up the rim and have a spoke key to tune your spokes. I'm sure it can be done. There are many motard rim options out there already though.

      @@konstantinoskourini it means to balance your wheel and adjust your spoke so your wheel has no wobble or slack. If done wrong the results can be catastrophic. If you have little understanding of how to true up a rim I would not suggest trying it on your daily rider. Practice with bicycle rims. You'll see how a couple twists can really put your rim out.
