2013 250 MX Shootout: KTM 250 SX-F

Here is the last installment of the 2013 250 MX Shootout, which is all about the quarter liter orange machine. The KTM 250 SX-F has changed a lot over the last few years. Originally it didn’t have linkage, it had a carb, and you had to kick it to life. Now, the bike falls in [...]

2000 Honda CR125 – A new bike rises from the ashes

Photos by Adam Booth It’s scientific law: matter cannot be created or destroyed. The same law applies to dirt bikes…sort of. There is no arguing that four-strokes dominate two-wheeled off-road recreation, yet for decades it was all about two-strokes and those bikes have to be out there somewhere. Like a scavenger sifting through the ruins [...]

Monster Energy Kawasaki Endurance Race Bike

The Dirt Rider crew teamed up with Monster Energy Kawasaki on a feature story on the Glen Helen 24-Hour for our March 2013 issue. The print story focused on the riding elements of the event, but seeing as the 2012 Kawasaki KX450F bike we raced was such an absolute weapon we wanted to offer an even greater look at this machine.

Five Bike Six-Hour Race Test

Photos by Nic Cade When the John Burr Cycles 6-Hour Endurance Race at Glen Helen popped up on our radar, nearly the entire Dirt Rider staff committed to racing this super fun event. However, signing up for the race only resulted in a series of long, drawn-out debates about which size machine would be the [...]

Long Term Wrap-Up: 2011 KTM 450 SX-F – Dirt Rider Magazine

I can’t say I totally had a monogamous relationship with the Dirt Rider 2011 KTM 450 SX-F test machine. Not that I didn’t try. The bike saw a lot of suitors over the course of the fiscal motorcycle calendar. Yes they called it a 2011 but since most motocrossers come out between July and September [...]

Making a two-stroke fuel-injected motor is not any more complicated than doing it for a four-stroke, it just [...]

by wocka

I'm looking to buy a dirt bike, I've had a 50cc enduro so I'm familiar with the clutch. I'm 6'3 and weigh 170 lbs, would a 125 be to small for me? I've found a nice 125 sx tyla rattray edition but I fear it might be too small.

Cutting down my silencer

by poopgrinder

Tuesday, Mar 06, 2012 at 10:27 PM

Hey everyone, just had a question that I needed some help with before I go and do this- I wanted to cut down my FMF Powercore silencer for my 03 CRF450R to make it shorter. I really don't like how far it hangs out the back of the side plate. So, my question is this- If I cut it down about 4 to 5 inches, will it cause problems or [...]

2000 cr250 Spitting a lot of dark black oil from exhaust

by kyleCR250

Monday, May 06, 2013 at 11:45 AM

Ok I just bought a cr 250 and rode it all day and it was fine. I went to check the oil in the crankcase and no oil dripped out so added about 1/4 quart 10w 40 until the oil dripped out of the oil check screw. Bike was then hard to start and is now spitting more oil and is really bogged down, full throttle bike going about 10 [...]
