my first attempt at jumpin the KLX

Radical!!!! Hard landing, handled like a pro. So is it ok to do this on stock suspension?

 

judgin by the sound at 5 seconds im gonna say no

 

I wouldn't beat the bike up on stock suspension like that; the first time I did that on my KLX - I blew the fork seals. I had Enzo Racing rebuild my forks and rear shock with KYB internals and put on KYB springs; now it handles like a champ.

Anyways, nice video!

 

Not to be a smartass or state the obvious, but you already had 'KYB' springs and internals on the stock bike. Did you go with higher spring rates? What 'internals' do you speak of? The stock 'KYB' valves and pistons or with brand spanking new 'KYB' O-rings?

 

Surprisingly my stock suspension is holding up well under good jumps like these.

I still want to stiffen it up a bit, but I'm in no big rush

Nice jump.

 

That's 20 feet farther that I have ever jumped.

 

good air

 

Nice! Sounds like it bottomed pretty hard. Try turning the compression adjustment clicker all the way in on the rear shock, might keep it from bottoming.

 

ya same here. the second time i hit that jump it was alot smoother it didnt bottom out at all.
