The Electrosport lighting...
The Electrosport lighting system was critical for night riding. The hand guards and Clarke tank will help, too.
The Primary Drive X-ring chain...
The Primary Drive X-ring chain and 18-inch Warp 9 wheel with Pirelli MX eXTra tire should help the bike survive 24 hours.
So we spent more than it would cost to buy a nice 2001 250, but we weren't building a playbike but a race bike, and that always requires a more serious effort. During our shakedown rides we found that the brakes felt solid and new, and the off-road-spec suspension takes the shock away from chatter and edges much better than a motocross setting while still allowing for the jumps. The Glen Helen 24-Hour uses parts of both motocross tracks, so we wanted to keep the ability to take hits and float jumps. Since some of the riders are usually four-stroke folks, we opted to replace the bent-up FMF Fatty pipe with an FMF Gnarly to boost the bottom and mid response. The engine sounds and feels crisp, and it still has plenty of power even judging but current standards. Stay tuned to www.dirtrider.com to see how the bike fares.
