@@Justin-os2zc no danger at all. No more than a bicycle as mentioned. weight is not a factor. Two wheels if it falls is a direct fall to concrete and more and likely heads hitting first which seems pretty dangerous at that same 5 mph. Rather than 4 wheels in dirt or sand at same speeds. I would say it’s a lot safer honestly. But they worked great no issues

The HoBao Hyper VS2 is of better build quality than the standard RTR SERPENT SRX8-E . If someone is going to buy a SERPENT to race seriously , they buy the PRO SERPENT KIT . The RTR is average quality , and their shock towers are weak , especially if you land on them if a jump goes awry wrong . The SERPENT PRO has 7075 CNC where as the RTR only has 6061 alloy . 6061 shock towers on a heavier 8th scale buggy are weaker and cannot take impact if landed on without bending .
@theatvfamily Ай бұрын
I’ve had this rtr for over 2 years now. Also have the kit. I raced with the rtr no issues at all. Striped servo horn was all I did. I disagree, serpent is extremely better quality than the Hobao. Hands down. Plus serpent is on shelves at local hobby store and almost every part is available in the Miami warehouse and within a day or two. Plus the Hobao is more expensive. Serpent is proven that’s a fact. Hobao isn’t a bad unit but I don’t compare them at all. The rtr is of course going to have the cheaper parts. That’s all rtrs. But rtr vs rtr. Not even a comparison to any other company. And this is just from experience

Glad to hear it's good. My dad and I are kinda thinking about getting back into RC (and 1/8 truggy is our favorite) now that the track that's near-ish us is open year round instead of just the winter. But dropping ~$700 just for a roller (tekno, since the last ones we had were teknos) and then at least another ~$400 on electronics, plus batteries and a charger... thats just too much at once to get back into it. A ~$400 decent RTR truggy (just need batteries and charger) on the other hand... But I think we're both gonna end up getting mini-zs soon since they're cheap and look fun, and are easy to find somewhere to drive, but this is definitely in my back pocket for his birthday.

The MX wheel setup would be 21 and 19. The 21 and 18 is identical to the cross country race bikes, the RX models for Honda. I had a 2021 KLX300 which I traded in because it had an electrical issue (still under warranty) and I was tired of waiting for the dealership to sort it out. I was going to get a new KLX300 but there was a used CRF450L with only 750 miles, for about the same price. I decided to do the upgrade. Man, oh man! Huge difference! I did go ahead and invest in an aftermarket ECU which really helped to smooth out the power delivery and make it more linear, but also increased the power. I got a switch to be able to go from full power to an enduro mode which smooths it out even more. I also had to order a Seat Concepts seat immediately to replace "The Log Splitter". It's my commuter, it's my light ADV bike, and it is also my backup single track bike. It truly is a do-it-all machine. Nothing wrong at all with the KLX300.

@@mrcolin2u The 450RL will certainly give you the power you're looking for, but I don't think the hand vibrations on the 450 will be any better than on the KLX, at least stock. I still have a stock handlebar setup on my bike, but hear that a 1 1/8 bar will vibrate less. I also don't remember for sure if the 450 vibrates any more or less than the KLX but do know for certain that if you're looking for more power than the KLX, the 450RL vibrates much less than some of the other competition like the KTM 500/ Husqvarna 501.

I have the 450L, which is essentially the same, and you have to be a little more active on these bikes. I ride mostly desert with some mountain trails in the Cascades and medium to fast it's a dream machine. Slow, technical, or something similar is way outside it's design. I have added quite a few mods over the years and at one point tried to set it up for more technical riding and it did not do well. Probably related mostly to my lack of skill with that type of riding but either way I set it up again for faster desert riding/racing with a tower for GPS for some ADV/BDR stuff. As of now I couldn't imagine a bike being better for me.
