@@Partnerthedog can you also see how it would be true for someone spending 40 to 60% of their time in the dirt? Beginner or not, dirt time is hell’a more work and effort than road. A dirt bike on the road means going a bit slower. A street bike in the dirt means you’re screwed.
Seemed like you were losing traction on the rear wheel. Make sure to set your preload on the rear shock correctly for your sag and try softening the setting to allow it to maintain contact better. And do what you can with your body positioning to transfer some weight to the rear (I realize there's not much you can do on a steep incline but every little bit helps.)
Ok don’t panic, i’ve got a fix for that marshmallow soft KTM 390. It’s simple take off the gas cap and slip a Beta 390 RR-S underneath the gas cap then reattach. All your off-road woes are now gone. You’re welcome
Been trying decide between the 2 all year lol either the CRF and mod it to be a bit more street friendly or get the KTM and mod it to be better off road 😂
