2023 Yamaha YZ450F Bike Intro 2.0 | Keefer & Matthes at Glen Helen Raceway
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лис 2022
- After our initial video on the all-new 2023 Yamaha YZ450F where Kris Keefer got his first impressions at the GOAT Farm, Keefer is back for a second video on the machine. In this video, Keefer is joined by Steve Matthes, who spins some laps on the all-new bike and provides his feedback on the machine. Having time on the machine on soft and rutted East Coast dirt, Keefer compares that to the familiar hills and bumps of Glen Helen Raceway.
If you missed the in-depth initial impressions video from Keefer, make sure to check it out.

Eli Tomac made this brand even better.
The new YZ450F is looking unbeatable .
I bust out laughing every time somebody comments about the front number plate or fender because it's so infantile like it's a reason to stay clear of the bike lol.
I'd still ride it and obviously it's a good bike but it is a ugly front end,I also run a bell moto 10 which I think looks ugly in shape,but since I think it's safer I use it.but the moto 9 looks better imo.
“…shocking..” LOL 😂
I don’t know how I ever chose a bike before I had access to Keefer… well, I guess I do know, I made bad choices. Lol.
But Keefer is the man! Period.
he kills me with this “area 1” “area 2” talk
Nice to hear the comparison to '22 YZ450F. Wish these bikes were available now. Latest shipping update to dealers from Yamaha is late December arrival🙁
December doesnt sound that bad. A few of the dealerships here were told no 450s until June for comparison.
Something about the front number plate looks odd, almost like it’s too short. But it sounds like a bike I’d be more interested in, the existing Yamahas were way too wide and “thumper” feeling for my taste.
Mathis has himself some child bearing hips! Haha 😂
Question,
Does the ‘23 model come in the XL size that Troll was riding last year?
There's still room on the fork to drop to get more stability....maybe try 3mm on the fork and raise the shock to 97mm and that would work better? I always drop the forks to the top of the fork tube and then adjust the shock.
2023 PW450F
Steve rides well for a BIG fellow
TTR 110 front fender + PW50 Front number plate 💀
I would need 2 saddle bags as well as a steering stabilizer.
Gaurenttee my vanilla and orange sherbet wouldn’t melt on the way home .
Nice bike!
I would like to build one .
I'm 210 love 250s just not enough would u suggest this over the 350?
GD Mathis is a tank, get that man a 500
Steve looks like a blueberry...hahahahahaha
I see Cookie Monster lol
Do you think if I disguise one as a wr450 with lights I could make it to and from stater bros before anyone notices?
Steve is funny.
Can cycra make a front fender for this bike not looking like pw50 length and a stadium front plate same description 🤔 😅
The free er feeling comes mostly from the clutch.
so it sounds like us guys who have a smaller budget, should keep our 22s and wait for the 24s?
dude keefer RIPS
Man I’m still riding my 2011 yz450…set up for trails and desert only. I’m still happy with it.
How much have the bikes changed?
Quite a bit.
I had a 2010 yz450f and now own a 22. The initial hit has no comparison. These new bikes are almost impossible to trail ride unless detuned. So snappy
All of Keefer's complaints are solvable with suspension tuning. What you can't tune for is +500RPMS and a diet of -5lbs....so it's the 2023 for me.
It’s not just me that hates Yamaha’s standard grips! Got these 🤞🤞🤞🤞 that it will be the base of the 2024 WR
Keefer still waiting on the quad test
It goes from 2018 to 2022 with a cylinder head change in 2020. Why does everyone seem to say that if you like your 2022, then you will really like 2023. You should be saying.... that if you like the 18 thru 22 and not single out the 22 as some sort of a completely different bike! I have a 2018 with some upgrades to keep with the 4 year run and I am waiting for my 23 but are slow to come. It's now been pushed up to January . Are they even at the dealers yet?
Steve needs to lay off of the cheeseburgers
I initially thought John Pinette was riding it.
Steve Matthes looks like a Macdonald Land Character decked out in purple with all that load!
Front fender looks like the ones on cheap Chinese mini dirt bikes.
Damn it keefer i wanted to hate on steve . but he likes the yamaha so the friend of my friend is my friend .lolol..Ilike the front gaurd it looks 80s.but i also love the yz 80 h front gaurd lolol.i will consider a yz 450f next year
can you cool it with the fuckin tribalism bullshit. i'm so sick of motocross fanboys...
don't be a fuckin corporate cuckold you numpty...
@@oliverdurgen5953 i ride yamaha for the reliable engine.. now i wont complain about the width of the bike. or the weight or the slow steering..etc.all 2023s are presold here in australia until febuary.. yamaha answered and the ktm guys will be doin their usual slander dance/
A lot of people hated the 98 , did you know with a few tweaks it was ok ?
I would think with a bit of regearing that thing could roll in 3rd all day
I could make a stock muffler perform perfectly .
Once I realized I was no Stefan Everts .
Front plate from 98
In other words larger rear sprocket and chain and move the axle back 3/4 inch and hold on for dear life ?
Put brembo brakes on it and the hydraulic clutch option then I'll try it.
You can put those on this bike.
@@3rdlineplug yep. Too bad Japanese bikes don't come stock with them.
That front fender is hideous though. Strange looking for a dirt bike
dude just said a fuel injected modern 4 stroke feels like a 2 stroke.........some people arent meant todo reviews lmao
Wow! Steve! Hiding behind that microphone gives a person the illusion that your somewhat normal size. Please get your arms around the weight! Could save your life….
Shills
It's not even a good review compared to every other review I've read .
Keefer who makes a -10 back and -10 down footpeg for the 22? flopegs?
