BRT Dual Band CDI Review: Unlocking the Hidden Beast Inside Your Kawasaki KLX 150

Gambar
KLX CDI Powermax If you own a Kawasaki KLX 150 or a D-Tracker 150 , you already know the truth about this motorcycle. It is a fantastic machine with a bulletproof chassis, capable suspension (especially the BF/SE models), and rugged reliability. But, it has one glaring weakness: The Engine Character. Out of the showroom floor, the KLX 150 feels... polite. It is restricted. It runs out of breath just when you want to have fun. You pin the throttle on a long straight, the engine screams, and suddenly— BAP-BAP-BAP . The factory rev limiter cuts the ignition at around 9,500 RPM. It feels like hitting an invisible wall. For many riders, the immediate reaction is to buy a loud exhaust or a bigger carburetor. While those help, they don't solve the root problem: The Brain. The factory CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition) unit is programmed for emissions safety and fuel economy, not for adrenaline. Enter the BRT (Bintang Racing Team) Dual Brand Limited Edition CDI . Known as the "Green...

Triton CR-5 Double Muffler Review: The Ultimate Dual-Exhaust Upgrade for CRF, KLX, and WR

Gambar
Triton CR-5 Double Muffler In the world of custom trail bikes, there is one modification that instantly separates the "daily commuters" from the "show-stoppers": The Dual Exhaust System . Seeing twin mufflers poking out from under the rear fender changes the entire stance of a dirt bike. It looks aggressive, balanced, and undeniably powerful. But often, dual systems are heavy, expensive, or destroy the engine's backpressure. Enter the Triton Exhaust Type CR-5 (Double Muffler Series) . Designed specifically for the 150cc class— Honda CRF 150L, Kawasaki KLX 150, and Yamaha WR 155R —this system brings the "big bike" look and sound to your machine. Priced at $163 USD , it is a premium upgrade that delivers both style and performance. 1. Double the Style, Double the Presence The defining feature of the CR-5 is its Double Muffler configuration. Symmetrical Balance: Most trail bikes look lopsided with a single exhaust on the right. The CR-5 fills the empty ...

Triton T25 Exhaust Review: The Ultimate Upgrade for CRF 250 Rally & KLX 250

Muffler Triton Tipe T25 If you ride a 250cc dual-sport machine like the Honda CRF 250 Rally or the Kawasaki KLX 250 , you know these bikes are capable of conquering almost anything. But from the factory, they often suffer from one major flaw: they sound too polite. The stock exhaust is heavy, restrictive, and muffles the true character of that 250cc engine. For riders looking to unlock the deep, aggressive roar of their machine without spending a fortune on European brands, the Triton Exhaust Type T25 is the answer. Engineered specifically for the 250cc adventure-trail segment, this exhaust system combines premium materials with precision engineering. Today, we review why the Triton T25—priced at just $109 USD —is the best "bang-for-your-buck" performance upgrade on the market. 1. Engineered Flow: The "Full Bending" Advantage The most critical part of any exhaust system is the header pipe. Many budget exhausts use "cut-and-weld" headers, where multiple s...

BRT Super Electric Starter Review: The Ultimate Solution for Bore-Up Engines (Up to 300cc)

Gambar
BRT Dinamo Starter 300cc If you have modified your trail bike—whether it is a Honda CRF 150L , Kawasaki KLX 150 , or Yamaha WR 155R —you know the struggle. You’ve installed a big bore kit, upgraded the cylinder head, and bumped up the compression. But now, every time you press the starter button, the engine groans. The stock starter motor struggles, the lights dim, and sometimes, you are forced to use the kick starter (if you even have one) until your leg cramps. High-performance engines require high-performance starting power. That is where the BRT Super Electric Motor (Dinamo Starter 300cc) comes in. Produced by Bintang Racing Team (BRT) , a legendary name in the Southeast Asian racing scene, this starter motor is engineered specifically to wake up high-compression beasts. Today, we review why this $66 USD upgrade is mandatory for any serious engine builder. The Problem: Why Stock Starters Fail Stock starter motors are designed for stock engines (typically 150cc with standard compr...

Scarlet Racing CNC Gear Cover Review: The Ultimate Aesthetic & Performance Upgrade for CRF, KLX, and WR

Gambar
Cover Gear Scarlet Brand If you are a detail-oriented rider, you know that a true custom build isn't just about the big parts like the exhaust or the wheels. It’s about the small details—the finishing touches that separate a "stock" bike from a "show-stopper." One of the most overlooked areas on a dirt bike is the Front Sprocket (Gear Depan) area. From the factory, bikes like the Honda CRF 150L , Kawasaki KLX 150 , and Yamaha WR 155R come with cheap, bulky plastic covers. These stock covers do two things: they look boring, and they trap mud like a shovel. Today, we are reviewing a small but mighty upgrade that solves both problems: the Scarlet Racing Full CNC Gear Cover . Priced at an unbelievable $15 USD , this is the kind of modification that adds instant "factory racing" appeal to your machine. The Problem with Stock Plastic Covers Before we dive into the Scarlet Racing unit, let's talk about why you should ditch your stock cover. Mud Traps: ...

Stopping Power on a Budget: A Deep Dive Review of Scarlet Racing Brake Rotors for KLX, WR, and CRF

Gambar
Scarlet Brake Rotors In the world of dirt biking and Supermoto, we are often obsessed with horsepower. We buy exhaust systems, bore-up kits, and ECU tuners to squeeze every ounce of acceleration out of our machines. But ask any professional rider or seasoned trail veteran, and they will tell you the same truth: You can only go as fast as you can stop. Braking confidence allows you to brake later into corners, navigate steep technical descents with precision, and avoid sudden obstacles on the trail. Unfortunately, the stock (OEM) brake rotors on popular 150cc–250cc bikes like the Honda CRF, Kawasaki KLX, and Yamaha WR often leave much to be desired. They can be heavy, prone to overheating (fade), and aesthetically boring. Enter Scarlet Racing . Known for producing aftermarket parts that balance performance with affordability, they have released a line of silver "Wave" disc rotors that promise to upgrade your stopping power without breaking the bank. At a shocking price point o...

Upgrade Your Control: A Comprehensive Review of ProTaper CNC Foldable Levers for Trail Bikes

Gambar
Protaper Levers If you ride a dirt bike, enduro, or dual-sport motorcycle, you know the scenario: You are tackling a technical hill climb or navigating a rocky riverbed. Suddenly, gravity takes over. The bike goes down. You pick it up, dust yourself off, and reach for the clutch—only to find your lever has snapped in half, leaving you with a jagged nub and a ruined ride. It is a rite of passage for every off-road rider, but it doesn't have to be. The stock levers that come from the factory on bikes like the Honda CRF, Kawasaki KLX, or Yamaha WR series are often made of cast aluminum. They are functional, but they are brittle. Today, we are reviewing a solution that not only solves the breakage issue but adds a serious dose of style to your machine: the ProTaper CNC Alloy Brake and Clutch Lever Set . Priced at an incredibly accessible $18.00 , these levers promise high-end performance without the high-end price tag. But are they worth the hype? Let’s dive deep into the specs, the fe...
