Are the shocks too stiff factory because you’re light ? I’m interested in this bike to tractor around 200lbs the woods, think it’s capable ? Wanting to switch from a FE350 which rides me around instead.
It just depends what kind of riding you do. They come with springs for 180lbs so you're good there. We changed the valving to make it more plush so that would be preference. I think the 200 would be light and manageable in technical trail and you'd have a blast!
Great video. Did you put the low-boy kit on it or ride it full size? Hard to tell from video. I’m 5’9” and the 200 is my first bike, but the one in the shop had the low boy. Thinking of trading in for full size
@@chasingchelsea321 no I used the bolts it came with, I heated the flap that covers the linkage and bent it down and bolted the rear just enough to hold it on, the I removed the exhaust and heated the front just alittle and forced the bolt to catch and I tighten it down. You will have to shave alittle on the right side cause it was tight against the exhaust bolt rubber bushing. Thing gave me a headache and I let them know it too lol. Just hope you never have to take it off.
Great rear tire choice.👍🏻 Ever try a Pirreli mt16? That and a Bridgestone m59 front is the set up for New England type hare scramble terrain. Beautiful bike. Might just get one some day.
@HardEnduroAppalachia Thanks for fast reply! I'm also a shorty, 5'4" 140 and just got a 23 race edition. Definitely changing spring rates but was trying to decide if the low seat would be enough.
@dennisharvey3146 it's definitely still tall. Depends what you're going to ride. If it's technical / hard enduro type. I recommend 1" lower. I lowered my sherco and really enjoyed it.
measure you oil with something like a ratio rite to see how much it take to make the oil come out the over flow and after that you will not have to take the overflow bolt out anymore, just put the correct oz.'s in.
I absolutely love a 200cc bike, but now I'm more of a mellow old fart and hope to throw a leg over my new to me 2018 Beta 300rr. It's like new as it only has 21 hrs on it.
Kyb suspension and linkage. I'll take the Beta! I hear you on the 200 kit! I figured slavens would make one but they don't. We looked for one at one point. I have a 300 and I promise you the 200 beta feels 30lbs lighter. It's just like a 150 but way more power. Thanks for watching! 👊🏻
