Prior to the 24 hour race on the CRF230F, I made a change to the rear suspension in hopes that I could prevent this bike from brutalizing me throughout the race. In this video, I share how that went and where you can find suspension upgrades for a very reasonable price.
This wasn't planned, but after a while of using this shock, I actually ended up selling them on my website here: torturetestmag...

You are incredible Man ! There must have been 50 gallon drums full of KTM tears after this !

@z50king29 Год назад

Thanks for making these videos. I'm 35, have a child, and don't feel like buying something fast like a 450 so I don't kill myself... Bikes like these are what I'm looking into and knowing they can be made rideable for my 200 pounds is useful

@panic-revv85 Год назад

Better of with a 250. These bikes are quite small.

@doobielawson702 Год назад

The Honda 250F is a great bike for following kids around.

@panic-revv85 Год назад

The money that you will throw into the suspension on a 230f to support you would be better off spent on a better bike. Suspension is $$$$

Love to see a hard enduro race, curious to see how far you could push a beater bike, plus plenty of KTM tears to be had!

Also curious on the full race vid if it's coming but honestly man it's excellent any time you upload, always waiting for another TTM video to pop out :)

Hey Gabe! Great job as always. I went with the Race Brothers shock for my 230, it’s a clone of the Fox podium, but pricey. I wasn’t aware of the Vonkat, wish I had known sooner! I’ll be posting a video on the RB shock installation and testing soon.

I wish this was available in '82 when I had a XR200R.

@markdegray4591 14 дней назад

Curious if you considered the Tuscany racing shock with the remote reservoir or if anyone else is able to compare the two. Believe they work out to roughly the same price.

@enzomoura5845 Год назад

This CRF 230f is the same that the brazilian one?

@andrewcunningham1697 Год назад

Did you do anything to the front suspension? Thicker oil? Spacers for more preload?

@TortureTestMagazine Год назад

Nothing special. 96-04 xr250r forks. They're so easy to tune to perfection with this cartridge conversion: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/race-tech-type-3-gold-valve-compression-kit-p?v=616?ref=1046&

Oh you know just changed out the entire front end of the bike. No biggie. 😂

@@TortureTestMagazine do those xr250r forks mount right up? Do you need the triple clamps?

@BeRAD Год назад

Beta? KTM? Sherco? Nahhh I’ll probably get a crf230 for my next bike. Seriously that seems like a ton of fun. I’ve always though that motor with some proper suspension would be a blast.

@TortureTestMagazine Год назад

Haha do it man. The short wheelbase is the most playful thing ever. You'll be on one wheel everywhere all the time. Probably even keep it parked on one wheel. Heck, just remove one wheel.

@harimgonzalez6309 6 месяцев назад

Hello. I would like to know what work you did on the front suspension after installing the Vonkat El Jefe rear shock. Thanks in advance.

Will we get a video about the 24-hour race like the dr200 video or is it still in the works?

Like my WR250r shock was beat had it rebuilt by Ccycle suspension here in Ct Bill is awesome $280.00 unbelievable difference guys a genius when I comes to suspension

Is a modified crf230 a decent step up in power from a modified dr200?

@usmc03 Год назад

No more EO Outlaw exhaust? If you don't mind me asking, what gearing are you running? There's no build list for this bike on your website.

@TortureTestMagazine Год назад

Oops, totally forgot to put the page up. Just put the page up now. Thanks for the reminder. This isn't that same CRF230F, this is a different one. I parted out the other one.

@bertradmacher2623 Год назад

Just watch the back wheel in slow motion, it does every thing right

@jeremymann8930 Год назад

In your experience and opinion what would you recommend for a trail bike for a 145 lb 5'11" rider? I am looking at a crf230f, a crf250x, a ttr 223/230 and a wr250f. I don't need the fastest thing around as most of the time I will be riding with my daughter's on their ttr 90 and 125L, so best bang for the buck and high reliability are my goals.

@joeycourtice4157 Год назад

I'd get an air cooled or more trail oriented bike than a crf250x or wr250f, the crf230, ttr230 or any similar old school thumper would be great

@jeremymann8930 Год назад

@Joey Courtice that's what I was thinking, my only concern is the lack of a Kickstart

@50ccause Год назад

@@jeremymann8930 lack of a Kickstarter is a non issue seriously. I've owned 4 of these bikes over the years, built them up and sold them. There's batteries on eBay for $22 free shipping (mighty max) and the very minute I see a battery going bad I chunk it for a new one. These are AGM batteries and a battery tender will keep it ready for a really long time.

@jeremymann8930 Год назад

@50ccause good to know, I like to have it just in case but if they are that good I may be more inclined since its a simpler bike without the cooling system

@joeycourtice4157 Год назад

@@50ccause I find that buying an expensive battery and wiring up a battery tender so I just plug it into some wires coming from the bike every time it's in the shed works really well. My bike has a weak charging system which is why I do that. It does have a backup kick-start tho
