    I'll have to keep riding my 21450RL till October I suppose. The standard graphics are available I guess. Thank you for responding and I'll definitely check that out

    I’m about 99% sure this is the 450 for me. The smooth power and active nimble chassis sound awesome!
    Especially since I want to be on a bike that keeps me conscious about my technique
    My only concern is that i’m only 150 lbs so I think the suspension might feel a bit stiff.
    What can I do with clickers to make the bike a little softer if necessary?
    I guess getting the valving redone for my weight might be a good idea huh?

      On a 2023 with the updated suspension settings, springs go quite a ways before going straight to a revalve. At 150lbs I'd probably drop fork oil (20-30cc's) and go out on fork compression at a minimum. Last years 54Nm (or even lighter optional 52Nm spring) are probably better suited for your weight. May even have to match the front with lighter springs to accommodate, but a stiffer front seems to help these bikes in the handling department. Best to talk to your local tuner and come up with a game plan!

    Crf turn better than sxf 450 19/22? Which one is smoother and easier to drive?

      CRF turns really good, but can be too good on faster (3rd/4th/5th gear) tracks. The 2019-2022 KTM is a better package out of the box, but owners would be well advised to learn the ins and outs of their AER air forks to find best comfort. Bottom line - CRF has more aggressive engine and handling, KTM is probably better for more riders. Cheers

      Renthal 839 FatBar is stock...Has been from 2019+ on the CRF450R and 2021+ Kawasaki KX450. 827 bend is similar, but slightly different dimensionally. Cheers

    what are those things on the grips? I see a lot of pros with them but I've never understood what they are

    • @CasMoto
      @CasMoto  2 роки тому

      Safety wire, installed with specialty safety wire pliers; They help keep grips from spinning. Most wire is thin gauge 0.8mm (0.032" American), not the thick stuff for rebar/fencing/general construction. Cheers.

      Yes, much smoother. Honda slowed it down, but in a good way!

    What is the price

    • @CasMoto
      @CasMoto  2 роки тому

      In USD, $9,899 plus $400 destination and $200 freight charges. It's $300 more than the standard CRF450R colorway, and worth it in my opinion!

    You need to show a walk around of the bike. Too many vids now days show the riders view of the ride only. Who cares about that I thought the video was to show the bike not the ride.
