[QUOTE=Blueridge boyieee;383514]Nutcracker, 1300 miles, good on you. I’m at 740 so far. How many miles did you get out of the factory rubber? Thought I saw you mention a tire swap.
I got just shy of 1000k miles on my rear tire. Replaced it with Motoz Tractionator Desert HT. I purchased the bike for a 90% dirt bike but I've ran it 70% on the hwy. It's just a good platform for Enduro. It's a blast far better than I thought a 2k China bike could be. The 6 speed is stacking up to be even a much better dual-sport bike platform. Hope PSM stays with this Zummva manufacturer. |

And Nutcracker that Tractionator is a gnarly looking tire. Really grippy looking tread. |

Finally pulled the trigger on a new Templar X. Any assembly advice? What motor oil should I have on hand?

YUP. Look at that!
I will copy pics and talk to Zora about getting the rack. That turns it into "adventure tour" . I wonder what bags they've made for or paired it with? Last edited by Thumper; 09-05-2022 at 12:14 PM. |

Anyone know if the exhaust has a cat in it
I assume it does like most others. If so wondering which header pipe can be found to replace it online or if anyone has cut it out yet

Rack for X7-CB250F (Templar X)
Here it is. I've asked PSM if they can get this for us. See Nutcracker post #636 above!

Is anyone lock-tighting the rear axle nut? I had the axle nuts loosen up on my Titan and had to drill holes in them to use a cotter pin as a safety measure. I know that the front axle has the 4 pinch bolts so that is a safety measure there but the rear doesn't and im skeptical. thanks

The nut has a nylon lock ring, but I don't know why the Titan would have an issue here. I know you've had problems with this. You solved it with a locking cotter pin. I haven't done many long rides, but many short rides without rear axel service of any kind, and it isn't loosening. I do keep an eye on these things though. I rode 30-40 miles at highway speeds and felt that rimlock causing a balance issue (it is not a road bike!!). Having experienced road rash a few times (!) times over 40 years on 50 motorcycles (no kidding), I have become much more careful and observant. |

Thanks guys.. but i didn't want to take any chances.. one wheel falling off experience is enough for me. Took care of both axles.
