Trailmaster TM 38E Review

I wonder if you can get a slightly richer injector

IF there is not a tuner for this bike...unfortunately ill have to look into my other two Chinese options. Orion RXB or a GXP FSE. Have you rode either of those two?

Glad you made this video, numerous GPX guys had the fuel relay and fuse problems. Some started carrying spares. Seems like the carb'd version may be better but they also have issues with running on a dead battery....they won't. If I get another 300 it'll be changed to an a/c CDI and stator so it will run without a battery if needed.

awesome video and information.i have a tm 38e too . i woods ride mine got to kept the revs up like a two stroke in the tight woods ,ring its neck. the forks are weak but im heavy now. check the head temp sensor by pulling the tank up , the tank will rub against the wires and break them i have to move the sensor. the brakes are awesome, i give mine hell kinda fast i kinda love mine. lol

We’re you able to get this street legalized???

Sounds like the carb model would be the one to get. How was the shipping? Did they deliver it with a semi?

What a sad ending 😢

How did you get a kick starter? I don’t see them advertised with a kick starter online????

My TM38 is 2 years old, I put a Enduro light kit on it & drive it on the RD. Geared up does 71mph . I love it! I just recommend buying the oil filters instead of the screen. 30hp it's peppy!

I will soon buy a tm36 model, do you know anything about that engine? Can it last for a while? I will maintain it as much as all my motorcycles so far...

Hello, did the bike start stuttering and cutting out, then just shut off? Mine runs fine while you are moving fast but when you get to slow technical riding and the fan starts coming on it starts stuttering real bad and then dies.

I bought my tm38 last summer. I didn't have that issue with it acting like it was running lean. I was up in the altitude a bit. 9,000 to 12,000 feet so maybe it helped it run better. I thought the power was great for a china bike. First time I was out with it, it pulled my fat patoot up some big hills here in colorado. I would compare it to a honda xr250. My dad had one when I was a teen and it feels like that kind of power (more trail bike than race bike) but still gets up a boogies.

What kind of tuner are you going to get and can you make a video of it

You're brave AF going out that far on the bike that's made in China. I have four China bikes. I don't go more than a few miles on them in the first 200 miles. LOL I trust my bikes about as far as I can throw those things. I've been buying them one for price and two because I like to play with new model stuff. They've been fun only stranded a few times. I've been looking at this model you've got the TM38E I have the TM31 and the TM35. Yesterday the TM35 I took out for an hour or so. Coming home 3 miles from the garage it went into high idle. I was like WTF. The throttle had stuck on the bar. I fixed it pretty fast but no it's not a Japanese bike. I also have a heavy TT250, now it has better parts and more support out of Cali. Yet it is a heavy enduro. If I'm going to spend over 6K on a bike I'm going to just buy a Japanese. China better lower the prices for with the tariffs or they aren't going to sell these bikes.
