Recognition Recipient: Lil' Mynx - Lil' Mynx is
being recognized with a BTO Sports t-shirt for her contributions

the exhaust, remove the factory mixture
screw plug, and replace
the factory tool
kit hardware on her new 2008
XT250, she graciously wanted to share it with
others. And this is the very premise behind 4Strokes.com.

New Technical Tip: Chain
Guard Flap or Extension - One day after routine
maintenance on the chain I decided to take the bike for

we went. Upon our return and much to my fear and dismay
there was a grease spot on the back of her new white jacket.
