Hey guy, brand new off roader here... I've been riding street bikes for 14 years and I'm looking forward to being a complete newbie once again. I just picked up a 2013 te449 that was still brand new at a dealer near me. Judging from what I read lurking around this site the essential mods seem to be an fmf pipe and then an Ecu flash and oil recirculater from the zip tie site. Anything else I should do to ensure the reliability of this bike? This looks like an awesome community and I'm excited to join it thanks guys!
You seem to already know what you're doing. Congrats on an awesome bike! TC449 was the dirt bike i had ridden after years of street. Still my favorite bike. If you ever plan to do suspension zip ty is the go to place around here, especially for those 449/511's.
Thanks man! Yeah the suspension will probably have to wait till I rebuild some funds... I definitely want to make sure the motor reliability is taken care of straight away though
