04:16 - kids, please don't overlook checking your sag. Most new riders overlook this in the beginning, and it can make a huge difference in ride-ability and safety. Please make sure your spring rate and sag is correct. Please. Your suspension is much more important than how powerful your engine is. Get that right, and everything else will make sense.

Linkage,swingarm and head set have a slight smear of grease on them. Do these before first ride. A spotlessly clean bike is super easy to work on.

We got our boy his new 2022 KX85 for this Moto season, hes off to a great start, and at first i changed his oil after every race weekend, it was clearly still breaking in, but now im going to do every other Race weekend because the oil is getting pretty clean looking now, I love your videos, great job and keep them coming please.

Di-electirc grease on all the wire connectors is nice too.
-
Thank you! I'll take care of those things now!

Excellent tips thanks for all your videos!

Jay Clark is good. I know him, and believe me - he knows what he talks about. We go way back. Hey Jay! From Houston.

Going to be doing this in the next day or week. Picked up my new kx450 yesterday.

Sad to pay 7000+ dollars for a brand new dirt bike. Along with that 7000+ dollars you get minimal suspension bearings greased, junk chain and or junk chain sliders plus sub par engine oil and brake fluid. Total crumb

Excellent info 👌

It's awesome to get a pro who shares secrets for FREE 😁. When I started riding, I went years damaging things with not a clue until, I made friends with a pro rider.👍

Btw sag is like another setting it can make you bike front end hi or low depending on what you want
-
Good info!
-
Great video!

I think the radiator bracing idea isn't terrible but for me I run harescrambles so I just get the full radiator braces so there protected on the sides if i lay it down on rocks or something
-
Excellent video Jay! Is there any chance you guys might test the new SWM's or AJP's?

Other things to do: - Install a skid plate (before a rock punches a hole in your cases) - Loosen the brake and clutch lever mount a little so they rotate when you crash instead of break. - Loosen the fork axle and triple clamp pinch bolts and torque them in the proper sequence. - Check everything the dealer did to assemble the bike: footpegs, wheels, battery, handlebars, chin tension, wheel alignment, etc.
