2021 KX 450 X Walk around: What makes it different than the MX bike?

- Опубліковано 25 лип 2024
- * Update: Since recording the video Kawasaki changed the name from Kx450 Xc to the new name of Kx450 X.
Trent goes over what Kawasaki did to the KX450 to make the NEW X model and why it would make it the perfect bike for a lot of riders in the West. With this exciting new addition to the XC range of bikes, Kawasaki has a winner on their hands and one that is sure to match up well against the Yamaha, Honda, KTM and Husqvarna XC offerings.
From Kawasaki: When it comes to KX™ motorcycles, winning runs in the family. The all-new KX™450X motorcycle is powered by technology that hails from a legacy of champions and tuned to take on the toughest terrain. Get the off-road edge on the bike built to ride ahead of the rest. The KX™450X motorcycle is built to meet the tough demands of cross-country racing. Cross-country wheels (F21"/R18") are paired with specific Dunlop Geomax AT81 tires developed for GNCC racing. A factory-style skid plate and a convenient side stand both come as standard equipment.

Should’ve kept the kick starter as a back up.
We need Kawasaki to make this version to a dual sport Street legal!!!
Bring the KLX 450 back to the USA, sad that it went away, we only had it in 2008/2009
Thanks! Common question, thorough answers, perfect presentation! Subscribed.
You actually did a great job on this video thanks
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment
fantastic review thanks uk
I very much enjoyed your explanation
Glad to hear that! Thanks for Watching.
Great review!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Great video guys, but the main complaint I have with this bike and the RX models from Honda in terms of the desert side is no wide ratio gearbox. Yamaha was the only one to do that so far. The close ratio is good for GNCC, WORCS AND GP racing but in the open desert you will have to gear it taller which will affect your slower technical areas. And its lacking a better bigger skid plate which is crucial for offroad. Just something I noticed.
Probably should of put a bigger gas tank on it but I love it 👍
And a kickstarter
Congratulations for the video. In your opinion, which version would be better to transform into a supermoto (motard)? Thanks
I want one.(2023 model). But I need it to also be the best bike for a timbersled kit. MX 450' bikes are the best for that. So how easy is it to change it back to mx mapping to have full power?
Are the transmissions on both bikes the same? Both close ratio?
Nice bike specs analysis. But a bigger tank and a really luminous headlight would be appreciated, thanks. I didn't hear, does it have electric start? That be nice !
It is Electric Start. Hopefully Kawasaki Puts out another model with the light and bigger tank soon.
@@rexburgms nearest I could find was a Clarke Tank from an earlier model, but wouldn't have the fuel pump installed.
What's the output of the stator?
What the difference between the kx450xc vs the other cross country kx450x? 2021 seems to have both the X and XC.
Now this is interesting , I understand that kawasaki changed the model to kx450x instead of the xc, do they still sell the xc because I haven’t seen one with that
The First one that our dealership saw was marked as a XC but the ones since then have come in as X models. So there will be a couple XC models floating around out there.
- Softer suspension components
- Kickstand
- 18" rear wheel
- Different tires
- Mapping & timing more linear
- 51 tooth rear sprocket

Yes, Thanks for watching.
@@rexburgms Just helping others. Time is money ;)
Bought a new 450kx xc maybe rode for 30mins and now it has a ticking sound. Any idea what that could be? The bike runs great just worried on the sound. I see most post on this issue are its normal, because of the new finger system.
I just bought a 250kx xc , did you happened to find out what was going on?
I had that same problem it’s the rear sprocket being damaged and chain being loose, buy a steel rear sprocket and oring chain
@@ws8190 good look, i recently bought a 21 kx450 and have the same issue
Is the maintenance any different? Longer between oil changes etc. Thanks
i doubt it. the motor in the xc is the same as in the mx. just different mapping
The Maintenance intervals are the same between the bikes.
@@rexburgms thanks
No sixth gear😕 no enduro. Europe do it better. But japanese quality is awesome
Motocross action magazine days the mapping is exactly the same as mx bike 🤷♂️
does it come with optional kick start also?
They don't have the kick starter bosses on the cases anymore so a kick start can not be added
And it's going to need a large fuel tank so save up!
bear min ...? ktm is the best ......kawasaki sucks... they could have done alot more ,and need to
Kawasaki is good
Then why are you here you queer, you must hate kawasakis cause they always smoke you
