help when you are riding on a slippery surface
to stop the bike braking traction as easily.
The air forks are a great feature as they allow
you to alter the feel of the front end with the
adjustment of a pump. This allows you to tune
them harder or softer without having to send the
suspension away to get re-sprung, which could
potentially save money. Also, with the rear shock
we just put a heavier spring in and a slightly longer
linkage which stiffens the start of the stroke.
The power delivery on the 250SX-F is very usable
which can just be rolled on as needed, yet you can
also make it feel really aggressive by slamming the
throttle open and the power on. At the moment this
will mainly be a supercross bike for me, so I will most
likely run it on the aggressive map most of the time.

Powerful but usable; top-drawer
suspension; electric start; versatile
A bit ‘tucky’ in sand as standard
