[QUOTE="Girlrider, post: 97943, member: 19703"] Firecracker, Next time the motorcross is on the TV really spend some time watching Carmicheal or McGrath ride and you will see that in MOST Cases thye do not grip with the knees. The correct way to turn a bike is by applying pressure to the foot pegs and leaning the bike. If your knees are squeezing the tank then you can't push pressure to make the turn. This is why trials is so good at helping you. My Hero, Kerrie Brokaw is a National Trials rider and she can also smoke most any guy on an enduro bike. (Even at age 41) The reason is because she knows proper technique and does not fight the bike. When we hook up you will quickly learn this. I am excited to teach you some stuff because you will go home and will be able to do a lot more. As for the KTM set up I think just a few modificaions will make a huge difference and I can help you with those. The KTM bar is actually a great bar and you should not need to replace it. That is one thing I HAD to change on the GG. That is the only bad thing about a GG, the stock bars are very flat. I will bring my tape measure (I hope I remember) and we will set up your sag and adjust your rear suspension. Have you changed the front forks so they have 5 weight oil in them and not the 7 weight? Also did you put a lighter rear spring for your weight? We will get it all worked out. [/QUOTE]
