This year i brought 2x 2 liter water bags! Also cheated, the CDI in my 1999 KTM 250 went kaput so I borrowed my buddies 2020 beta 300RR. Thing went on reserve at about 30 miles and was empty at 50, so having it stall on the steepest hills to switch to reserve sucked, but that bike didn't care, took back off in second gear on the steepest stuff no problem!
PA BDR -- very cool, easy part or not. This section looks like my kind of adventure. Didn't catch what Tom thought of the KTM. PA is so much like the Southern Tier is its understated beauty.
Yeah the PAwilds doesn't require much effort so it's just you, and your wheels and hopefully some buddies to share the adventure. I think section 4 and 1 are the most scenic.
great video series ! Few questions : did you had an issue with the fuel boiling (full cap vent) because of the heat ? also did you used the stock tires and sprocket ?
Bro your original cap was a 0.8 you put on a 2.0 bar, that's over twice the pressure. Apparently a lot of people are buying this cap that is over twice the pressure bar. If you would have had a 0.8 bar cap you would have been good. "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian"
I live in Mendon NY, just bought a 2023 KTM Adventure SW, and you're giving me great examples of where to ride once I get my legs under me. Wish we could motor on the Rails-to-Trails routes -- they'd be perfect. Thanks!
@@LCARSADV My reply disappeared. Rails-to-Trails are where the railroad right-of-ways have been repurposed as walking, running, bicycle & skiing trails. But motorized vehicles aren't permitted.
What carb did you put on your tse300 and what oil ratio did you use and what all did you half to buy for the carb mine came with a kehin 38mm clone but it is real rich and i have jeted it but the cable is so tight i cant change the main jet. Thank You
I ended up with the Xtng 36mm but I did have a Keihin 36 for a bit. I’m very happy with the Xtng and the fuel efficiency as well. I’m sorry I don’t remember my jetting though.
great video man, D yoou mind sharing your jetting specs? I have the 2022 model, and it came jetted all wrong, would not run properly. You motor seems more lively in the videos than mine does. I had to gear it down for enduro riding to 52T in the back, the 46 was way too tall for tight trails. thx
Oh gosh I’m sorry I don’t remember, however I would look at your plug and your engine response. It should be a light tan color. I probably put the info on the GPX face book group, I would do a search
Its chris the one you sold the fse250e to, Hope to see you at the monkey butt this year. I took the bike to Virginia last weekend to race a part of the VCHSS, am loving it Thank you. Also met the Gpx dealer out there, working towards a 300 big bore kit for it.
@@LCARSADV When you hit the mode button on the dash, I think three times, in the lower right will display a number and that is the hours. Nothing designates it as hours but it is. I’ve been watching it each of my first 4 rides (just purchased last month) and it is aligning with the number of hours I’ve ridden.
The wiring should be there though, the tse300 is the only one that doesn’t have them. At first I was kinda bummed but not really, as I don’t really ride it on the road much
I'd say they abandoned them more for the reason that they were indestructible, they wouldn't tear up and break down. Just like they done with the 300 4tracks 4wheeler. People around here are still riding them today because they are tanks and you cant stop them. They can change whatever to suit the governments fear of global warming, but Honda can't make money off them if they don't sell parts.
You get what you pay for. I’m not looking at anything from China. I love my YZs best rated overall dirt bike plus years of parts accessibility. The aftermarket is also huge! A friend of mine had one a couple years ago, he was so glad to get rid of it. He loves his 2003 YZ250.
@@LCARSADV after building these bikes for years, it’s clear you don’t know that a YZ is a great enduro bike. You could even buy a YZ250X which is a great bike for hare and hounds. It’s like you really don’t have a clue. Chinese bikes are crap!!
@@LCARSADV I don’t need to ride one, I know they won’t last, look face it, it’s from China. You haven’t a clue about anything YZ. You couldn’t even do a ride demo, lol! All kinds of bells and whistles, right?! Give me a break! Chinese 💩, with all that stuff on it, it weighs a ton. The metallurgy will also be in question. What I say is true, because of years of experience. It’s not just me, there are many.
Thank you so much for all the info, this week i'm ordering this carb too, do you use the stock slide 6,5 that came with it from factory? or you switched for other size?
No, I don't have a GS, but you buy one because you can cruise on the freeway about as comfortably as a goldwing, and still do a ton of off-road trails. And have you seen people pick them up? Looks pretty easy. They barely even tip over.
No doubt the GS is an amazing bike, but man I wouldn’t want a bike that powerful or heavy off road. After watching long way round and watching those guys picking up those bikes, there is no way I would want to be out in the wildness alone with one of those bikes.
@@LCARSADV Yeah, it's possible to do alone, but probably not wise, or super fun. You find ADV riders in groups mostly. With the big bikes, I'm told you just go slower over stuff so the wheels stay on the ground.
