how long can you have the battery tender on it for? Also can you recharge a dead battery to have as a spare once you remove it to replace it with a new one or is that one gone for good?
Hey Canyon! I actually upgraded the springs in the front forks, I have filmed the video but didn’t put it together yet… I will jump on that, thank you!
Hey @Canyon sorry for the late few day response, Basically through a forums someone mentioned they got custom springs from racecraft.com. So I had emailed them that I had a “2020 ttr 230, I am 5”11 and weigh 160ib and dropped my phone number” they called me the next day took down my payment information and sent it out 3-4 weeks later for $175 in total, which was charged when they send it for shipping(3rd week). When I did the swap I used a 15t weight fork oil(said to be stiffer than stock), I put 360 ml in each fork, that information I got off a forum. If you want to do this more accurately drain the fork oil into a plastic cup and put back that same amount. I found this overall job very easy, If I could I would have asked for springs like 10-20 pounds more than what I am, but it is definitely much better and I also raised the rear shock which helped A LOT. They sell aftermarket rear shock for $450-$500 easy to install with adjustable gas chamber but I haven’t found this necessary after raising the rear. Which was a pain for some reason…. But good quality fork wrench’s is my recommendation there. I even took it out of the bike to adjust it. Sorry for this long explanation, hope this helps and everything works out for you!
Your enthusiasm about the TTR 230 is appreciated. We picked up two this year for a couple of our clan of riders (6 of us) and they are great bikes.
