Really hopeful this next shipment of TemplarX 6 has the addition of the NC298 motor coming soon.

Just put my bike back to stock sprockets for the weekend. Gearing is to quick for long distance single track... Absolutely still loving this bike but I need 300cc version to set along side. A crazy great value these bikes are.

TemplarX made it thru Loretta Lynn's Ranch Fall Ride this past weekend. Just shy of 37 miles combined with all trails.. Gave it hell. I'm not the best rider & never passed a seasoned 2 stroke. But ripped it with intention to defeat something on this Chinese bike. Only carnage was my rear brake started getting spongy and inconsistent maybe the master cylinder is going out. I never saw 1 other Chinese bike at this ride. All KTM, Huqsvarna, Yamahas etc... Chinese TemplarX hanging with the big boys and not even a loose bolt.

I need a refresher on compression & rebound adjustment can't seem to get my front end dialed in..

Anyone care to share there SAG measurements I should start there..

Welp..there was a hole in the box that sits in front of the bike in the crate.. and after taking everything out, I don't even have the LED display or the part that connects to the forks and steering/handle bars. Also missing what I believe is the front axle based on their assembly video. Extremely annoying.

Its sadly always a crapshoot with these deliveries. Call or email PSM they will send everything or worst case credit you for parts they don't have in stock

PSM will take care of you. And they are fast.

You are going to love that engine. It might vibrate a bit more than the newer 6speed, but there is a counterbalance whine in the 6speed. The 5 speed engine seems crisper, more responsive as a result. The M should be AWESOME off road. I definitely prefer my 5 speed for trails.

I emailed them but "Zora" was having an issue understanding what exactly I was showing her. I even screenshotted from the officially assembly video they posted and circled the parts I'm missing. Zora (via email) told me the Parts Department is taking a look at it now. Im going to try and call them too though.

Does anyone know if they keep parts in Cali or am I looking at a crazy long wait from China?

Here's a screenshot of the assembly video.. can you identify them so I make sure I ask for the right parts? Also did your bike come with any kind of nuts/bolts/screws that were in a separate bag? Or just ones that were on the bike but needed to be tightened? I didn't get any kind of bag with any hardware like that.
