Some people are saying gear shift is very smooth but i find my downshifts r not so smooth. But then i again, just picked up mine and have only clocked 70kms so too early too tell. All i knw is that i ❤ mine! Nice video by the way
Nice audio and ride. I'm in Mulgrave so I do go up that way a fair bit. There is a nice dirt back road that you can take from the Basin to Olinda, running along mount highway. I'd try that road first if I ever finish deciding which ADV to get. Question, would the 450MT be under power with a pillion? I take my 13 yo son on the back of my Z900 currently.
Ah a local…. Good old Gembrook isn’t to far away, some good dirt roads up that way and beyond. I don’t think it would have any issues with a pillion at all, obviously coming from your Z900 you will notice a difference though..
@OzzyADV I remember my first LAMS bike, Ninja 250 and it was gutless. I just need something with a bit of power that can do 2 up, suspension travel ~200mm and can ride anywhere that has light dirt roads/asphalt.
Sounds like the 450MT would suit your needs. My daughter used to come for rides with me on the Harley but she is at an age now where her social life is way more important lol. I’ll see if she is keen to try out the 450MT and report back. Don’t like my chances though lol

Yeah I think it just needs more time to bed in and it will get smoother. Yeah it’s a fun bike, that’s for sure.
Thanks for sharing. Very nice! Subscribed. Hope your back feels better. Can’t wait for my bike to arrive in Kenya…30 more days!
Thanks mate, yeah I can’t wait to get it on the dirt….
Think the trick to finding neutral is to pull the clutch fully in.✌🏽 Works on mine anyway
Yeah tried that! I did find it getting easier as I put more Ks on it, must be just bedding in….
Congrats on your new bike✌️did I hear it was vibey🤔the motor sounds sweet. P.S. your driving on the wrong side of the road🤪
Thanks mate, no not vibey at all, it’s really smooth. lol I was just following the cars…..

@OzzyADV thanks mate. I was also looking at getting a second hand gs 800 for a bit cheaper but of course it doesn't have any techs like this bike.
@@charliequach6399 sometimes it can be hard to choose which way to go….
nice. colours are weird on video
Yeah I noticed, no idea what went wrong so I reset the GoPro settings just in case
It looks a bit hdr ish and washed out. I have had this before when camera does one thing and editing software does something else
How are you finding the wind buffeting?
Yeah I do get a little around 80ks, might need a taller screen.
