Unfortunate, when I was a kid i was his neighbor. 1989-1991-ish, I was all into dirt bikes and realized who my neighbor was. I'd do circles on my street, hovering on the bmx, waiting to see his vehicle in the driveway and would go knock on his door. He'd almost always come out and spend 10 minutes with me making 80cc noises and pitching his hand sideways. I must've been a real pain, but he was sure a class act to do that! I thought he was such a cool guy, still think so!

@tk2stroke20 сағат бұрын
As a KTM owner, I don't doubt them that this is the best KTM 450 yet with all the adjustments they made to improving comfort and compliance. With that said, we all feel like hero's on a perfectly prepped track and every bike feels amazing. I think the reviewers opinions were affected by "perfect riding day" syndrome.
@bebble98519 сағат бұрын
So then every single bike would be perfect? They test all kinds of bikes on a perfect track to see how each bike preforms. If conditions are unchanging, then bike reviews will be more accurate. This is where i think the mxa guys do really good by actually racing the bikes and thereby testing them for actual race scenarios - where these bikes are made to preform. I get your sentiment, but it would only work if they only tested one bike.

I added the connectivity unit to my 24 350 and I love it !! I can take the engine break to nothing .. it was 250.00 bucks but for me it was worth it. I'm sure it would also be great on the 450.

It’s one of those things everyone should do at least once if you can. When I bought my first one, I mistakenly said I would “never” buy a Japanese bike again…fast forward 3 years and there’s a Yamaha in the garage again.

@reineherrera889717 сағат бұрын
@@OtisFlint They do make a quality product. It's undeniable how good the brakes are in comparison to their Japanese counterparts and the clutch is super durable. Aside from those two standout attributes, I don't think it justifies the $2,500-$3,000 difference in price in my view. Especially when you take into account the suspension performance of their competitors. One would think that they are saving some money in production cost as well when it comes to the WP air fork as the air-side leg is identical in all of the full-sized bikes and they really just change the suggested air pressure (Spring rate). That leaves just one leg to valve per model, for example, in the MX models during manufacturing process. Essentially, for every 2 forks someone sits and valves for an AER KTM, 2 bikes get done while everyone else just has 1 bike done for the same amount of work. That over thousands of units I imagine equates to a lot more bikes finished up than the others, right? Not asking rhetorically, just an observation and wondering if anyone else has the same stance.
