"Yeah, just don´t tell her you´re doin´it. She´ll say no" Hilarious !!
It seems like all the best tools are in the kitchen and she doesn't like parting with them lol
Hell yeah brother! FREEDOM CYCLE NEW HAMPSHIRE! I just bought my 2022 SSR SR 160TX yesterday! Going this week to get one for the wife! We live in Franklin. So cool that I stumbled across your video an watched it through.
NauTi Gaming congratulations man and thanks for watching! Be sure to tell them I said hello!
This is a trove of information. Can’t thank you enough. Happy riding!
@Zachery James thanks man! 🙏
I went with the kayo 140 for my son. They seem to be VERY similar. So far we love it
I've heard good things about that brand also :)
Little one already able to steer the bike while you push it just awesome getting so big so fast
You got that right!
I just bought one yesterday the same one u got 140cc run nice n fast I paid $2040 out tha door with new up grade chain n oil
Love it....
This bike is a blast! I am 100% satisfied!
Great video just bought a 22' for 14 yr old son. Very informative info on yhe SSR 140. We need the advise. Dealer never mentioned any advise you gave. Keep up the good work.
Thanks man I'm glad you enjoyed and congratulations to you and your son!
Very nice new Bike brandon
Thanks man! It's a ton of fun!
Nice video
I yes get a ssr 125 for my daughter and she loves it Nice pit bike, Nice price and looks great
Beautiful family 👍
Thanks Luis! They are great bikes. I'm totally happy with my purchase. You got a lucky girl!
Thanks for this video
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I've worked on cars for 25 years and that's the best philosophy to have. KEEP YOUR OIL CHANGED PEOPLE! This man is totally right 👍.
@juan borrego thanks man I appreciate it!👍😁
I never changed mine on my pit bike , the engine was fine , but I snapped chain and all spokes in back wheel
Had a SSR since 2007. Great bike for learning.
You cant beat em' @Ray Smalls. We love ours with no complaints.
make sure to always check your spokes!! look up truing your wheels! i just wrecked mine because my spoked were lose and one broke and went through the inner tube! wrecked it in the field going at least 50. had it pegged in 4th gear! went flying and landed on my back!
Ouch! Truing and torquing spokes is actually pretty easy if you take your time. I relaced a new wheel my first time and got it within ten thousands which is well within spec, then I balanced the wheel. It came out perfect. The manual actually says to adjust them when it's new due to break in
I just picked up a used one of these and the spokes were loose! And missing a few!
The riding with the grand baby is adorable bro @16:20
He is getting big so FAST!
20 sec in video already badass with little man pulling in the garage threading the needle lol
@jk thanks man! He absolutely LOVES bikes. He asks to watch motocross all the time! Pretty soon he will be riding!
Nice manuals
Thanks 👍
I have one and it’s been a great bike. Had it for 2 years. The biggest thing you must look out for is the valves. Make sure to keep up on adjusting them. I currently need to adjust mine. Also you need to not touch the idle adjustment screw. I did it to mine and now it keeps lowering by itself. Carb is great as long as you don’t touch that.
@Farmtractor 1128 thanks man! We are loving it so far!
@@MotoVated207 great!
you're one of those guys that treats his stuff good but you're messy wit it. lol I was like that when I first joined the army but then I learned to use oil towels and funnels. LMAO great video bud
@Brandon DeSean Thanks man I appreciate it! And thank you for your service! 👍
I am a proud owner of one of a 140 TR BW that I got from a dealer on Maui. I live on the island of Molokai, so getting the bike here was kind of a problem. The only option for shipping was by barge via Young Brothers. Maui to Oahu to Molokai, a cost of $289.00. The bike arrived in great shape despite a 4 week delay, and the fact that the trailer that the bike was being transported on was rear ended by another vehicle. The only problems I had with the bike itself, was #1: That the front wheel was not exactly round. I noticed this on my test ride down the street of my neighborhood. The ride seemed a little bumpy even though I was on a freshly paved road. Upon closer inspection (According to my eye), the wheel was about 3/8" out of round. I did not notice it much at speeds above 15 or 20 mph. #2: The levers were not adjustable for reach, I had the hardest time with shifting & braking because of that. #3: the bike was really loud. I addressed two of the problems right away by replacing the levers with break away, adjustable reach levers and a spark arrester muffler from Amazon. I'm still debating whether or not I should attempt dealing with the front wheel on my own or not. In the mean time, I am having a blast on that thing.
I'm glad you like it. It is a little loud especially compared to my XR. The wheels are pretty easy to true. Just search truing dirt bike wheels. You can do it right on the bike. It would be good to learn anyways because the spokes do loosen and ypu will want to make sure you tighten them properly so uts a skill you will keep using
the rims dont come true... look up truing your wheels! i bought a 140tr and wrecked it because the rear spokes were super loose!
I like the fact that they put a Mikuni carb on it now
@50 Channel definately an upgrade!
bought 2 ssr 160 tr 2022 and both of them started taping after riding them for about 1 hour 30 minutes also broke a kicking gear. srr warrantying both brand new motors but I have been without 2 brand new bikes for 12 days now and still waiting for the motors to show up to the shop sometime this week. I will likely end up paying for the labor in the end.
Sorry to hear that man. Fingers crossed I havent had any issues so far.
How long is the warranty good for
Excellent Review ! How is the SSR 140 performing as of today ?... After the break-in oil change(s) Period, how many riding hours is required before the the next oil change ?
Soooooooooo, It ended up being too big for my wife and it sat in our garage on a stand. I ended up selling it this summer with a whopping 3.5 hours on it lol.
Nice video my man. I just got a 2020 yesterday for a grand. Super low hours and youth ridden.
By any chance have you found and graphic kits for them?
Cheers from new mexico!
@kona bird I haven't been looking but this winter I might. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel!
There’s a clear reason SSR bikes are less expensive. Cheaper Components. They simply won’t hold up over time like a Honda. Remember old adage “you get what you pay for”.
@Evan Walker i think its all about perspective but for me, spending more doesn't necessarily equal more fun. My wife or grandson can crash and destroy this one just as easily as they can a KTM or Honda costing upwards of 3x more. If my plan was to keep it for 20 years i might think differently but for the 3-4 years we will own it, I'll put that money saved towards gear and riding trips 💰
I actually just gave it to a friend for that reason.
What size tool did you use to tighten the spokes 😭 I have the same 140tr and first ride 4 spokes came out but can find the smaller size tool plz help!
@David Garcia i didn't have the proper spoke tool so I ended up just using a small metric wrench. I don't remember the actual size but a small adjustable wrench would work also.
can we get an update video on the ssr!! i wanna see how it held up the past few years?
I would if I could. I sold it with 3.5 hours. There was nothing wrong, it was just a little too tall for my wife. I bought her a 2001 Honda XR100 and did a full build on here and made it street legal.
Got myself one need to buy oil for it what oil did you use the hole year and was it good? thanks
Thanks man. I used conventional Honda oil. I just cant remember if it called for 10-30 or 10-40.
Its more likely 10-40w but now I know the brand thank you so much for your time and that fast reply really helped appreciate your content 👍 planning to make my ssr content also thanks for your advice.
@@timtv6422 thanks man! 👍
I just bought two 110's for my kids, and took them out for the first time yesterday. One of them want to bog out when you open it up, unless the choke is on. Choke on, it flys around but revs high. Choke off, it barely goes anywhere. I tried adjusting the screw with the spring on the carb, but doesn't help. Any ideas?
Are they new? What your describing indicates the pilot jet is dirty / clogged.
@@MotoVated207 yes they are new, but now I believe that I had something wrong...I think I had the choke on when I thought it was off lol. I assumed "up" was off, and "down" was on, but I think I had it backwards? I think I adjusted the idle with the choke in the on position, and that's why it was revving high when I turned it off. Can you confirm if this position is correct? I can't find anything that tells me, the manual just says turn on and off, but not which position
I sold it a few months ago so I cant check it
if i throttle it up the carb , it bog's and will stall out ..Help i think i got one of the old carbs .. just wish it came with a parts manual .
Is it new or used? If it's used the carb could be gummed up and might need a cleaning.
Which Ktm/honda plastics specifically fit on the sr140tr?
I think CRF but I havent tried
I figured it out. The SR140TR actually takes yamaha TTR110 plastics
How easy was the hour meter install ?
@Hill it was super easy. I've never installed one before and it took less than 10 minutes. I drilled 2 holes to mount the meter then wrapped the lead around around the spark plug wire. It's thats easy and it's very accurate.
Dang I read on the Honda crf110 it’s 18ft lbs and because China bikes are knowing for rattling bolts of here and there I kept it at a solid 20ft lb
18 or 20 it's not going to make that much of a difference. Your going to be ok with either.
@@MotoVated207 agreed but you went 11.. have you had any issues?
@@chrisvillarreal2752 none
Where did you get the hour meter? How did you install it
I bought it at the dealership where I bought the bike. I installed it on the right side where there was a flat plate and used the supplied screws.
@@MotoVated207 Is it something that wires into the bike itself or do you manually turn it on and off when you ride?
It turns off and on automatically. No switches or anything. It's completely self contained
What size is the rear and the front sprocket on the bike?
Sorry for the delay at @Zander Mcdonald i couldnt find anything online so i actually counted. The rear is 41 and the front 15.
just got one exact same but it smokes out the exhaust when it hits a little higher gear
Ive heard really good things about these motors. My wifes XR100 Honda puffs smoke when she lets off. I was told if it smokes when you let off its usually valves and if it smokes under power its rings.
Readjust your valves
What’s the status on the 140? Still holding up ?
It has 3.5 hours on it. My wife didnt like it (too tall) so its been parked.
Mine brand new 2021, I dropped it on it’s side... and it’s now stuck in second gear
@Korey Sudol It sounds like your shifter fork inside your transmission got stuck between 2 gears. You might try rocking it back and forth as you try to switch gears.
I use full synthetic oil in my 22 year old 4runner it originally called for 10w 30 conventional my vehicle stays cooler and has done better with full synthetic oil it keeps engine cooler and lubes everything better and I used to do oil changed every 3000 miles I bumped it up to 8000 miles and there has been a 2 times in last 5 years I was so busy that I didn't get to changing the oil because I had to many service calls that the full synthetic oil was in my engine for 50 thousand miles and wow it was still clean and the engine had no issues so there is a lot more to synthetic oil then you think synthetic oil also helps the environment because it's not 100 percent petroleum like conventional oil is synthetic blend is both conventional petroleum oil and made oil were full synthetic had very little if any petroleum oil
Great point! I might try synthetic and see how it goes
@@MotoVated207 make sure what ever you put full synthetic in its gone through its complete break in with conventional oil if that's what it requires then move it to synthetic oil
@@MotoVated207 synthetic oil has better wear additives and is more heat tolerant then conventional oil as well as tons of other amazing properties
Thanks man!
@@MotoVated207 what kind of synth can you use that still works with the wet clutch? my bikes like 10 years old and I havent used it much in the last couple years I bet I need to adj. the valves its hard to start but runs pretty good after that. before I stoped riding it often I had it all tuned up. then it sat for a couple years and not its realy ahrd to start. fuel system was empty though so shouldnt be that. but still I'll take the carb off make sure it didnt grow anything in there. lol.
❤
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Just bought the same bike, is it safe to ride with the chain being that loose? And also how do I tighten it can you do a video on it please.
You are better to have the chain on the loose side versus tight. I will put together a video of tightening very soon :)
🏁👍
Thanks!
Just blew to rear shock in my 125tr
@Commander Cody sorry to hear that man. Fortunately parts for these are easy to come by
I got a supermoto 350ktm yes i love my chinese pit bike the my toy..
@Shortybx183 Shortybx Yah they are a blast and KTM's are pretty awesome too!
What spark arrestor is available for these?
I haven't looked. I know T-Bolt sells a nice aftermarket exhaust kit for it though
@@MotoVated207 I didn’t see one for the 140 listed. Only the 160
@@punisher9oneone I found THIS but you will have to make sure your inlet fits. It looks pretty cool amzn.to/3K9CEUk
Before anyone says China
There actually all American and pretty cool especially
The ssr160 that things a monster
I agree. They are awesome. I couldn't be happier. Plus when the dealer says they have one in a go cart and beat the tar out of it 24/7 and cant blow it up that says a lot.
@@MotoVated207 I do the same with my kawi and I’ve got a rev box I ride it full bore all day
Where can I buy parts for my 150cc ?
I havent needed any for mine yet but if I did I would try a dealer. I got mine from Freedom Cycle in New Hampshire
Thanks 😃
i herd the stock chain on the ssr 140 didnt need to be lubed
The manual says it should be. It hasn't stretched much though so I'm thinking it's better than what I thought
The manual says it should be lubed but the good thing is that it doesn't seem to stretch much
More videos on this?
@Nazir Mohammed very soon.
how tall are u for size comparison
@Elite Twan I'm 6-1
yeah i was wondering that too. Is this bike too high for a short person to flat foot?
Should the seat height match the inseam on your jeans?
Yes that is correct 👍
How much money
I just sold it with 3.5 hours for $1600
If your looking to buy these DO NOT PAY STICKER PRICE!!!! They have a huge mark up!! Website says msrp is 2k.. i bought mine brand new for a little under $1800
Same here
this bike uses 10w 40 non synthetic is recomended ..
@Robert Yates I agree and i've never had good luck with full synthetics in anthing
2500 for gear and the dirt bike wow that is a pretty cheap price 😳
Hopefully it holds up! Its supposed be a pretty decent bike for what I'm told but time will tell.
what ever happen to this bike?
Unfortunately it just sits in my basement collecting dust with 3.5 hours on it. I've been thinking about making it street legal
Synthetic blend
Can you comment on how much travel in front and rear and how the suspension does for you? I have a 2014 KLX110L that I got new and really enjoyed for a couple years. It has been sitting in garage for 4 years and needs a refresh but, I am 6'3" 190 and it was always a little small and suspension too soft. Considering the price of these new it has me questioning whether to even mess with the little 110 @Moto-Vated207
It actually has quite a bit of suspension. I'm 215 6'-1" and it does great for me. The one thing I really like about this one is that the supension is pretty advanced as compared to the newer Hondas in this class. It has adjustable dampening and rebound on the front as well as adjustable rear suspension. The front and rear travel is also more than the Honda and it has front and rear disc brakes whereas the Honda is still running the drum rear brakes. It's a nice bike. My only complaint is it has a lot of compression which can make it a little difficult to start sometimes but it runs great and has lots of power for a smaller bike. I'm totally happy with it. With that said, I bought an older Honda XR100r that i restored and my wife prefers that over the SSR. The XR you can just about start it using you hand (this bike would break your wrist if you tried) and the XR sits lower and the suspension is much softer on the XR. For a bigger rider the SSR is definately a nice bike.
@@MotoVated207 sounds like a the ssr may need a hot start lever / or electric start to be perfect. I'll check out the XR100 series next!
I haven't fully made my mind up but thinking ill just restore the 110 to stock as any real mods (65 forks, swingarm) would be costly and end up underpowered and still on tiny wheels. I need to find a junker on 14/17 or 16/19 wheels
@@jklm. I agree it's too much compression for a smaller or inexperienced rider. Restoring bikes is fun also.
@@MotoVated207 update: 2 days ago I bought an 07 ktm 85 sx 14/17 mechanic special, literally everything in a storage tote. Deal was too good to pass up, maybe l'll see if a Frankenstein could be possible
@@jklm. Aww man that sounds like fun! I have a 250 and absolutely love it!
