I can’t speak for “racing” but in production form the KX is just a mellower power but I don’t think the “racing” side is about power. I think Prado’s deal is chassis. Once @pulpmx has me back on the show again, I think I can break it down more.
Are you allowed to share Phil’s opinion on the Kawi? He’s not riding as well as he did on the Yamaha in my opinion.
Depending on size/weight some stock stuff on some bikes are pretty damn good.
@KKeefer120 how much should a c class rider be investing into getting their suspension properly done when they send it off
I have zero knowledge of what it is.
Do you have anymore info on it ?
I heard in August. Most likely the second week or so.
@KKeefer120 when will you get to ride the 26 Yamaha YZ450?
Kawi two stroke
What happens first? @pulpmx @KKeefer120 @FMIP222
I may or may not have heard. 😂
Is the Kawi 2 stroke coming?
My kid and I were wondering the same. It’s just how some ride. Some like to keep wrist locked, some like to play with the throttle more.
Why does Deegan rev the shit out of his bike in the air? Gotta be hard on the equipment and unnecessary?
A lot. You can roll the Washougal whoops without high centering. 😂
@KKeefer120 how different are the whoops between the ones at washougal vs supercross whoops?
Dirt bikes are hard.
Three crashes in three weeks for the Jett here. Odd
I agree. I like the KX450. Just needs a little more comfort but love the front tire contact.
I think the stock kx 450 is a great vet rider bike, it’s very planted and stable feel, the power doesn’t explode out of your hands. I had a couple ktm 350’s that I liked but the kawi feels a lot more stable to me.
The bike is fine. It might be a variety of things “Prado” needs to go fast. Also, Prado has been on steel frame for a long time up to this. Maybe he can’t get what “he” needs out of bike. In order for some to ride FAST they need a feel. Prado hasn’t found it yet. That’s all.
Do u have any quotes from JA21 talking bad about his bike?
Let’s be real.. You would have got at least 1 out of 3 if I was there.
Sir, second time I rode a factory Honda! youtube.com/watch?v=WWzZ_Y…
Yes.
Kris do you think he would be better had he stayed on ktm?
Naaaaa dude. That’s not it..
I’ll take the ignorant low road…. Maybe American moto has eclipsed the GPs again and they just stink? Vialle isn’t a heavy hitter anymore either
Harrison 9th on privateer Kawasaki. Prado 10th on factory Kawasaki. I Dunno Man….
