AGREED ! I am so TIRED of the of 14/12 bikes, they are the size (and d*mn near the speed) of my freakin 250f. I rode 10/10's a long time ago, then went to 14/12's when it first came out, now am 100% back to 12/10's. Pit bikes were meant to be small last time I checked ... Not hate'n, just agreeing ... Would love to see more solid 90's coming into the market (beside the SSR and Pitster)

Make sure theres not going to be to much rake, cause the stock crf70 rake is bad and you need about 3 to 4 degrees less rake, or it will handle poor, and i know 70's.

I disagree, the stock CRF70 geometry seems about perfect in my experience.

Your expereiece is on the road,and I would agree with you that it is really good for motard,but motard 70's don't even make up 5% of what the aftermarket is for a frame.Stock geometry is OK in the dirt but changing it makes for a much beter dirt product.

Yah if they(motovert) dont change the rake a couple degrees, people arent going to be happy about how its going to handle, Guaranteed

Kurlon how do you know you wouldnt like less rake for motard, my 70 (w/-3 degrees rake) would out handle the hell out of a stock rake on cement.

Actually, your 70 would tuck the front due to lack of feel. We've tried it. We've tried going the other way, and what we've settled on is stock 70 geometry for road race style, concrete or pavement.

Slows right, if your going to call this bike a CRF70 your going to have to rework it.

You cant put Crf70 plastic on a KlX chassis and call it good. If you do it right it will out handle most everything, if you dont,well then youll have a Flop, no one wants that,so go back to the drawing board.
