Thanks for the advice guys :-)

Should I go get it looked at?

Hey guys, I just put the first 3 hours on the new top end of my YZ250F 2002 only to discover that it had no oil filter installed. Would this have done damage? I've noticed a lot of minis have no oil filter at all. What makes minis different from big bikes when it comes to the need to...

Only two starter gears were changed and one tooth never found, suspected to have been lost in an oil change but who knows. And the bike has about 11 hours on it

Hi Guys, I've got a Dirtmax Dominator 160cc with a bad kick back problem. I have already replaced the starter gears once. I just did my oil and found large amounts of metal stuck to the sump plug. (photos below) I think it is safe to say that these are starter gear teeth. If so, and the bike...

So does grinding the pick up on the flywheel effect performance at high revs? The bike only has about 8 hours on it. So you think it might stop kicking back with more hours on it?

If I wanted to remove the flywheel and grind the pick up, do you need a special tool to remove and install it? Also if you take it off does it install right back into place or could putting it back a little bit off alter the timing?

Hey Guys, Ive got a Dirtmax Dominator 160cc YX with about 8 hours on it. Picture below. It has a HUGE kickback problem. I have had it professionally serviced by DHZ and I have tried all the different methods of kicking, always about 50/50 kickback. Been through one set of starter...

The mechanics at DHZ disagree. And so does my bike...... :-/ I'm not saying your wrong. I'm just getting clashing info

Hey all, I've been reading all the threads about how to kick start your big bore pit bike. 'one click past TDC then kick' But I've just come back from DHZ and the guys there recon otherwise. The guys at DHZ recon you find TDC, bring up the kicker then KICK! Every time I do this it...

Hey all, Today was my first ride on my Dirtmax Dominator +r with a 160cc YX engine. The bike is second hand with about 5 hours on it. Never seen more then a paddock. After about 30mins I stopped the engine and when I went to start it the rear wheel was locked, even in N or with the...

Hey all, Today I bought a Dirtmax Dominator +r. 160cc It cost $2995 new but I got it second hand with about 5 hours on it. It's never seen anything more then a small paddock. This is my first big bore engine and I have two concerns with it: Firstly: The engine is quite loud, not the...

Hey Everyone, The brand Dirtmax is rarely mentioned on these forums. I know a few people that ride them but can't seem to find any reviews or opinions on them in these forums. Are they any good? Cheers

Hey everyone, I can't seem to make up my mind. Which is more fun when it comes to trail riding: Pitbike with a 125cc, 140cc, 150cc or 160cc engine? If you had the choice of all four which would you grab for a day in the bush with your mates? Cheers

Why is that?
