Just picked up this bike and it's so fun to ride. Dare I say I got it for under 10K out the door. I'm older now but have always been a Kawi fan after having a 99/2005/2007 KX this one reminds me of the seriously fast engine on the 1999 but also has a suspension level that I haven't seen anywhere. Love it!
Kawasaki is the best bike... Eventhough it is under 10k... It's fun to ride it.. Anyway I hope I could buy this beauty soon 😊🤘🔥🔥💚
4:22 cool shot seeing the soil displace...
The sole reason why I really love this channel.
This bike looks amazing, I lov how they for the older looks for this one
I have a 2017 kx450, ill be buying this one for sure!!!!
I just bought one today Hal 2019 6700 before taxes can’t wait to try it I’m 53 always had 250 2 strokes
come on, you have to share some details.....do you like it?
First Japanese bike with Hydrolic Clutch. Only took 2 decades.
Owen Arsenault doesnt honda have it
Luke Paul only on HRC bikes. You'll likely see it in a few years when the next generation comes out.
Luke Paul Not on production bikes.
Owen Arsenault so not even works edition has it?
Luke Paul Nope only on "Works" race bikes.
That bike is going to be so nice converting to an xc racer
FINALLY MENTION OF ECU/MAP/ POWER COUPLER SETTINGS. ABOUT TIME. GOOD JOB MX MAG. THIS GUY KNOWS WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT.
It's going to be a awesome new year in the 450 class.
Dam I was going to go buy a 2018 but I think ill hold off for this one
Robert Barger hold off fam
Cant wait to hear Denis Stapleton say this bike is better than the KTM..._...Im financing one tomorrow !
I think an awesome show/ article type thing would be to compare the newest bikes vs the previous year to actually show the differences. In every review to have a control group, imagine this for the 08 and 09 crf450 that’d be huge
Oh that’s cool, bike comes with a side by side refrigerator freezer. Oh wait that’s the muffler.
Bravo ótimo trabalho gualidade total bazuka Foz do Iguaçu pr Brasil
Damn muffler looks like it came off a new duramax diesel
Merica Bass the rear number plates just make it look longer brotha
Why would anyone buy a 450 bike with the intentions of keeping the stock exhaust on it anyway? I wouldn't care if the stock muffler looked like a can of tuna because I would have a complete aftermarket exhaust system put on it before it ever touched the dirt to begin with.
Should have a good muffler from the factory..kawasaki has been using this ugly style of muffler since like 07 lol
Really to me it looks like an old FMF pipe
nice bike....love the commentary on the muffler...it does have its own area code..had to add mine=).
Thanks for the information guys
The 2018 is much better looking
Cool to see them stepping up but they could’ve done so much better with the exhaust.
what if pro circuit is paying them not to..
Why would anyone even own a 450 bike with a stock exhaust anyway? I would be embarrassed to take any 450 bike in general outside of my garage with the stock exhaust still on it. It's a KX 450 not a TTR 125.
Jon Benoit I hate the stock exhaust on my 15 yz450f but it’s a lot more free flowing on the 18 yz450f, I can tolerate it on that bike.
Jon Benoit With the brand new bike costing around 10gs, I'd have no problem at all riding if anywhere with the stock exhaust. I don't make enough money to just but a 1000 dollar exhaust for a bike that already cost me 10gs
@@thediab0lus575 Idiotic comment.
I have to trade my 17 kx250f for this,it's a must have
depends how tight is the track you ride at. i love my kx250f 2018 but my track is fairly small and technical.
I had a dream last night about this bike being too fast for me lmfao I guess a lot of people are running the smoother mapping 😂
2005-2006 250kxf exhaust muffler.. and overall looks like a 2004-2005 with a 2018 front fender snd numberplate
I’m going this Friday and get one 💯‼️
How is it?
Cyrus Fisher #19 lol I gotta 2019 yz250 2stroke instead
resethebeast51 oof
Wow nice maybe someday i hve on like dat kind of dirt bike ...
The sound is the best #kawasaki gang
Electronic start, better forks, better engine than last year, lots of improvements. This will give KTM a run for the money on the track.
I wonder what Tomac will say about the hydraulic clutch. 😁
He is a big fan of the cable clutch like Villopoto.
andreas stefanou not like he'll hafta deal with it, factory kawasaki can easily fabricate him a cable actuated clutch. I remember clear back in 2001 factory suzuki fabbing Kevin Windham a rack-and-pinion style clutch cuz he likes the feel of them even though the bikes came with a pushrod style
Probably put a cable clutch on
According to what the test riders said kawasakis clutch has a "cable" clutch feel. If they manage to do that is perfect. They have the best from both worlds
Amazing.....kawasaki KX 450 F.
450’s are more bike than I’ll ever need haha
Id win every race with this bike...
Que pedazo de moto la kawasaki
Nice bro
Pretty sure Eli is pumped. Gone are the traktor kx 450
"traktor"? What?
Everyone says the muffler is too big, too ugly, sounds like shit, etc. but why would anyone keep a stock exhaust on any 450 bike in general? Do you you even ride? The stock exhaust would be the first thing I would remove lol.... if you seriously plan on buying a 2019 KX450 with the intention of keeping the stock exhaust system on it then you probably don't have any business owning or riding one to begin with.
Jon Benoit exust is the last thing I worry about I spend my money on the suspension getting suspension done the way u like it means way more than having exust done. A stock 450 u won't use all that power anyways unless ur a really good A rider
Definitely would change suspension first no reason to spend over 600 for an exhaust system when it doesn’t give much more power for the bike. It’s only based on weight and looks which isn’t a big deal to a lot of people. Plus like said below most 450 owners won’t even use all the power of the bike anyway.
people that dont actually race are the ones that spend their money on exhaust systems. suspension is the difference between winning and losing not power.
What!? No tomac edition
Luke Paul that’s why I’m gonna wait til around December to get this because if they announce a factory edition or something I might have to wait
How are the suspensions because I really want to start jumping I feel like if I nail the jumps I could really hang up there with the pros maybe be the top 15 racer just need to keep practicing on the turns and jumps
That muffler is huge
The rear number plates are big enough to use as a pit board. The can looks like a bazooka.
Pretty bike tho.
Updates on the bike sound good, but i think the silencer should be bigger, looks like a 2stroke, maybe that’s why the dropped the F 👻
Maverick224 BIGGER?! How about a straight smokestack?
Jimmy Watt lol,
It would be high on the list to replace, I am sure FMF, Pro Circuit, Yoshimura and more will have something much more appealing in no time, rest looks dam good to me..
What off the 250 does it have electric as well?
Yes, it does...
I'm a kawi fan.. but there is a missing parts..#kickstarter
How much is this worth???
What its price
2019 bikes in June? Have no sense for me
every year it's the same, why you surprised?
Funny, every other review has literally raved about this bike - not MXA. The new fork, new engine, new brakes, new frame,.... Don;t forget to add a tooth to the rear sprocket - lol.
brewrabb Did you expect any less from KTMXA?
Same blocky motor and still a bit heavy I’m sure. Kaw fan, was my 1st bike at age 7 but had to step away until they catch up.
Wrong on all accounts. Keep the bullshit to yourself.
Does sag really make a big difference?
MX127 Yes it can.
Scott Henderson 🤣🤣 good one.
MOTOHEAD season!!!
What is that price
muffler looks like it belongs on a street bike
No.
This bike is Brand New and it already looks 10 years old....
How?
I would still choose a 2006 kx250 over this 💨💨💨
Why do kx bikes have that weird idle like a slight tick or ting in the backround
It's prolly The Fuel Delivery.... very common in the auto industry.
Finger follower cams. KTM and Husqvarna are the exact same
No kick starter?!?!
I'd be dead on 450 in the woods
Makes me want to sell off my bike right now.
polluter1986 glad I did in january for this lol
He said "cheap" test rider.lol
The muffler reminds me of the drz400 muffler its way too big
I Like pie Totally that's what I thought
It's the same size as last year model, the thing is that the numberplate is smaller
Never buying KX again! NO MORE 2 BANGERS!!
Mohhameed H ok bye bitch
Turn of the musik !!!!!!
Since they droped the f now u can kiss those 2 stroke coming back soon goodbye:/
Look like an 06
chain is too tight
When you want to be a ktm so bad 😂😂
Tyler James how does it want to be a ktm lol
Javier Romero “cause of the hydraulic clutch duuuuude” lol kawi has always been it’s own glorious thing. People don’t seem to realize how awesome these bikes have been since 2009
tymotoboy53 exactly lol... i have a 2008 kx450f its a little tame for a 450 but i love that thing
I like it, but it’s kinda plain
Kawasaki do make 2 strokes
Om vlogs Yup 65,85 & 100.
A kit spring forks my ass
There's really just a few comments saying the same things over and over. Let me save you some time and summarize all comments down to Four: 1. Silencer too big and ugly (always 1st thing replaced so I dont get the point of criticizing something thats getting tossed immediately). 2. Bike/Graphics are Ugly (looks nice to my eyes!). 3. Only took Kawi 20 yrs to add Hydraulic clutch and Elec Start (some people are never happy). 4. Still not as good as KTM (Fanboys who 99% of do not even ride). There you have it folks: The Sheeple Have Spoken lol!!!
The graphics look so bad!,
"it was just a good bike, nothing great about it" Facepalm. Try again.
A real copy crf450r
Still trying to keep up with KTM
Totally exiting - hydraulic clutch, electric start, more power, .... ohhh wait - like a green KTM only 20 pounds heavier - and still you will burn down the clutch in a matter of seconds in deep sand. How and when will the japanese bikes ever come even to orange??? In 2040 or what???
Dam thats one ugly bike
radiator should does not match up well to the curve of the frame, not a biggy but looks kinda sh*t
Can someone gift me this?
Ugly this year Honda looks well better
Ugliest pipe ever
Wow that thing is hideous
How
Joey Diamond It’s fucking ugly! what do you see that makes it look good? Plastics are smaller and uglier than ever, exhaust looks like it’s not in the right position and the bike sounds like shit. Don’t say how please
Joey Diamond engine looks like a chode, shrouds look like they're from 10 years ago, graphics are juvenile, side plates are meh.
was actually going to say, it looks like they've modelled the plastics (radiator shrouds only) on the 2007 KX125/250. Even the same green from then too
Pierce Barrett don’t forget the bike sounds like dog shit
Who cares. Fours strokes have killed the sport. It's no longer cheap, family friendly fun. You now need $12,000 and a computer and personal mechanic to work on it. It's absurd.
The BBQ Jerk i agree technology has made the sport out of reach for most people not as much fun as it used to be when everyone road 2 stroke
Got a few points
don't complain you can still buy a 2 stroke, either new or used
... this is a 450cc bike, this is a competition machine.. if you want a family friendly fun bike buy a used 2T 125cc ...
I can put 100 hours on a 450 before it needs a top end rebuild. My old KX125 had about 4 top ends and a bottom end by then.
Get over it. It's the way the sport has headed; these bikes are so much faster and better than they were 10 years ago. New 2 strokes aren't even that much cheaper than the fours anyway, so I don't know why you are saying all this.
If you wanna dirt hack go buy an old TTR or KLX 250. If you want the best, then you have to buy what the market demands...
Looks like shit. Looks like 2 bikes mixed. Side plates like ktms, shrouds look like older kx 125/250s, fromt fender still looks dated, same with front plate. Exhaust looks stupid long and if you were to loop it for whatever reason...bye bye exhaust. Most people will swap out the slip on. Hopefully FMF or Pro Circuit can make it tuck nicely behind the plate with the end cap showing. Would still buy a KTM/Husky or a YZF.
