The Dirt Bike Setup System Stop blaming the bike before you have actually set it up. A dirt bike can be expensive, capable, and completely wrong for you at the same time. Poor sag, bad control position, incorrect tire pressure, the wrong tire choice, or misunderstood clicker settings can make a good motorcycle feel nervous, harsh, unbalanced, difficult to steer, or impossible to trust. And when the bike feels wrong, riders often make the same mistake: They start buying parts. The Dirt Bike Setup System gives you a practical framework for dialing in the motorcycle you already own before spending money on unnecessary upgrades, suspension work, or replacement components. This course walks through the foundational setup decisions that have the biggest effect on balance, comfort, traction, and control. No vague advice. No suspension jargon for the sake of sounding technical. No guessing. Just a clear process for understanding what the bike is doing and making intelligent adjustments. Built from 15 years of testing, riding, and answering setup questions Kyle Brothersen has spent the last 15 years riding, testing motorcycles, comparing components, working through setup problems, and producing more than 1,500 Dirt Bike Channel videos. Over that time, he has answered thousands of questions from riders dealing with the same frustrations: Why does my bike feel unstable? Why is the front end pushing? Why does the rear end feel harsh? Do I need a revalve? Where should my bars and levers be? What tire pressure should I run? Should I use tubes, mousse, or Tubliss? Is the problem the suspension—or is the bike simply not set up correctly? This course organizes the most important answers into one practical system. What you will learn By the end of the course, you will have a clearer understanding of: What sag actually controls How to measure sag correctly at home Why static sag and rider sag both matter How clickers work and what they actually change When adjustment is enough—and when a revalve may be justified How bar and lever position affect control and fatigue How to position the rear brake pedal and shifter Which small ergonomic changes can make the bike feel dramatically better How tire pressure changes traction, comfort, and steering feel How to choose a tire for your terrain and riding style The practical differences between tubes, mousse, and Tubliss How to make changes methodically instead of changing five things at once This course will not turn a completely wrong spring rate or damaged suspension into a perfect setup. It will help you identify the basics, establish a reliable baseline, and know when professional work may actually be necessary. Inside the course You receive approximately 103 minutes of focused video instruction across 10 detailed lessons. Module 1: Suspension Foundations What Sag Actually Is—and Why It Matters Understand how sag affects the balance of the motorcycle, steering feel, traction, and the way the bike moves through the terrain. How to Measure Sag at Home Learn a repeatable process for measuring rider sag and static sag without turning it into a confusing workshop project. Clickers Explained—Without the Confusion Understand compression and rebound adjustments in plain English, what they influence, and how to approach changes intelligently. When You Actually Need a Revalve Learn the difference between a setup problem, a spring-rate problem, and a suspension problem that may genuinely require internal work. Module 2: Ergonomics and Controls Bar Position and Lever Setup Dial in the cockpit around your body, riding position, and control preferences. Rear Brake and Shifter Position Set the controls so they are easier to reach, easier to use, and less likely to force awkward body movement. Small Changes That Make a Big Difference Understand how minor adjustments to the cockpit and controls can improve comfort, confidence, and consistency. Module 3: Tires, Traction, and Terrain Tire Pressure Basics Learn how tire pressure influences grip, steering, harshness, rim protection, and overall feel. Choosing the Right Tire for Your Terrain Understand the practical differences between tire types and how to match the tire to where and how you ride. Tubes vs. Mousse vs. Tubliss Get a straightforward breakdown of the three common systems, including the strengths, tradeoffs, and best-fit use cases of each. Who this course is for This course is for a rider who: Owns a dirt bike but is not confident it is set up correctly Wants to improve handling before buying more parts Feels overwhelmed by suspension terminology Has never properly measured sag Does not fully understand clickers Wants better comfort, traction, and control Is unsure whether professional suspension work is actually necessary Wants a smarter process for evaluating setup changes Rides trails, desert, enduro, or general off-road terrain Values practical explanation over technical posturing It is especially useful for newer and intermediate riders, but experienced riders may also benefit from revisiting the fundamentals in a structured way. Who this course is not for This is not a suspension technician certification, advanced chassis-engineering program, or a replacement for a professional suspension tuner. It does not include custom valving specifications for every motorcycle, rider weight, pace, and terrain combination. It gives you the foundation to: establish a baseline make sensible adjustments recognize what the bike is telling you avoid wasting money communicate more clearly with a suspension professional when outside help is needed Why setup should come before upgrades A lot of riders replace parts before they understand the problem. They buy: new bars expensive foot pegs different tires suspension work steering stabilizers complete exhaust systems aftermarket clamps Sometimes those upgrades help. Sometimes the real problem was incorrect sag, poor control position, the wrong pressure, or a bike that had never been systematically adjusted. The goal of this course is not to convince you that every stock component is perfect. The goal is to help you earn the right to blame the hardware.
