Every year since about 1987 i've been looking out for the next years bike. Either in old school magazines or the internet. Best thing ever seeing the next years bike. I had a 2006 KX250 late 2005. Best purchase of my life. Edit: Came in a wood crate with the bars off. Braaaan new. Backed the compression off 1 click and it was absolutely dialed, on rails, 5th gear ppinned all day.
I bought a brand new Honda FR450R. L. In 2022. I already put 4000 into the bike. And the suspension is the stiffest suspension I've ever had on any bike in my life. Stiffer than a covered wagon 200 years ago and I had the suspension all reworked valving everything done to it and it is still stiffer than a covered wagon. And I weigh two hundred pounds Other than that, the bike is great. Too much to list What i've already done to it The guy who did this suspension specializes in suspension and porting. We already talked about it. I'm going to take it back.!!
All it needs is a 350cc to 400cc engine, lower compression ratio, a wide 6 speed transmission, 3 maps, Showa A-Kit suspension, traction control, longer rake, DOHC, larger gas tank, LED headlight, and a larger oil resevior.
Can the mxa crew contact Suzuki directly and tell them what needs to be done to save the RMZ range could be a great bike if the development into the bike YAMAHA ARE LISTENING TO TEAM AND TESTING CREWS TO KEEP THERE BIKES UPDATED
These new 2025's have the first plastics I have LOVED on a CRF since the first generation bikes in 2002-2004. These new plastics look awesome, and anything they change about the looks will just be a downgrade.
I live in Indianapolis. Love Ironman mx such an amazing track look how perfect it looks ❤ better than cali tracks for sure imo. Love this new crf450r as well. Had a 2006 crf250r and a 2002 crf450r loved them both. Thinking about selling my Harley dyna and gettin another motocross bike i miss the dirt no cops either lol. Idk what i should go with though an older 450 again a 250f i weigh 205lbs definitely not a smaller rider
I want to ask you guys a question: I'm a beginner rider and really am considering getting this dirtbike as my first ever motorcycle. I'm 6'1, 210 lbs, in good shape, and have a little experience riding a smaller dirt bike. Most importantly, I have been riding BMX, MTB, and E-MTB's seriously for over 40 years. I know that a dirt bike is much different, but I also know that riding dirt bikes and MTB's have a lot in common. I rode a 230cc dirt bike and picked it up quickly. It was super easy for me to ride it, so I am confident that I can learn to ride a CRF450RL, granted that I approach it cautiously and with much respect. I'm also first going to take a motorcycle safety course before I buy it. What do you guys think about me buying it as a first-time bike?
You would think all the money these bikes cost they could get it right from the factory but instead you buy a new bike then you’re spending a ton more to fix all the bull shit

Edit 2: got a really good understanding of suspension set up if anyone needs any help
Appreciated hearing more than usual from Dennis Stapleton. Fount of knowledge. And a more regular sized guy.
Good to see 26 on the bike you don’t hear much frm burner any more and never see him on vid . Well done boys great vid
Love byrne he was a awesome rider still would be
MXA first test, Dennis and Josh great showdown.
Joshy boy! Rest up brother
Well done boys! The ending 😂
Seems like if it was blowing thru on the smooth track at GH it be even worse. Can’t wait for that review.
JBI could make the suspension work amazing.
@@jpesicka492 I wanna get those JBI pro perches for my 24 yz450f

Wow thanks no bullshit mxa
With Josh Mosiman injured look who steps into the breach... Josh 2.0!
Riding in the smooth map but was expecting more power. Huh? Put it in the normal map or fast
Trey you mean 41% change of rain 😅
John pork on my wrist 💯
That's all you need is a weather man at the beginning 40% What is he like
I don’t think anybody cares but Josh Fout is my brother
Should we add a tooth to the rear sprocket?

And collarbone guards.…🤭🤭🤭
Just need 2 color options Blood red late 80s and Red orange mid 80s
Flash Red, you mean😅
Too much $$$$$ and no Torque
Gimme a ring-ding every time !!
You have a new dog Josh. 👍
The one thing im not liking is the smaller plastic. Need some room for sponsor stickers
I notice honda is trying to use less plastic so there is less weight but I kinda like more the 2024 design
❤

The side number plates are so bad, especially the intake side. Such a shame
Why the ktm helmet tho 😂
So they’re all making a stiffer chassis…. where Suzuki has been 😉
Side plates are hideous. Not a fan of the shrouds either.
Not really a test, 20 hours plus would be a test!
