Mr. Keefer, You are like a friend who understands all the technical details of what's new and can provide us with the best feedback we can trust, all of it very naturally and in easy-to-digest language... 😎✊👍🏁🔝
Depending on demand and sales of their 250 and 450 Triumph would consider a 350 according to RC. I heard it a few months back on the Pulp pod when asked about offering a 350.
I have an older now Honda 450. The ONLY bike I will buy new is a 350... now that I'm older too. But I'm really liking what I see from Triumph... but its 350 or nothing for me! PS: I read recently, in an article about why the Japanese do not make a 350, (but that there is a good rumor that Yamaha maybe sooner than later), that for the KTM group, worldwide, they sell more 350s than 250 & 450 combined. If that is true, and Triumph wants to sell a lot of dirt bikes, they should seriously consider a 350, particularly before Yamaha does. Because I'll be one of the first to buy a Yamaha 350.
Great review Kris!! Threw out the years I’ve always felt your reviews are dead on from what I feel in a bike. I’m a little taller and heavier and you’re a little younger. But great job. I’m very happy that triumph made a quality product in there first year dirt bike. 😊
@@richardferrell4362tbf the 250 was tested this last year, here in europe i actually saw a couple, on track, the 250 revs so high u can tell is a triumph from far, about parts, is true there isnt many on the market yet sadly, but triumph dealrships here offer full mechanical support in case you need to repair or change part, hope the 450 does great this 2025 seasson
Love honda always. But this triumph 450 is nice so is the beta 450rx and the ducati looks good too. Man awesome for the sport beta and triumph racing already just waiting on ducati in the USA. How sick if Harley built a motocross bike. Man decisions though. Liking honda as always and the beta 450rx especially the benny bloss edition beta 450rx.
@@Willwheeler97 you’re trippin balls if you’re doing it by the manual it also says to run 10.7 bar when factory connection and nearly every other suspension tuner recommends running air forks at 10 bar… so… the manual is a useful tool but not the reality it’s more of a safety precaution to protect against would be lawsuits. By your evaluation every two oil changes I should be swapping my pistons 😂 GTFOH 🤡
Did I miss if he talked about how it turns? I feel like he kind of did, but in a “bike developer meep meep scorp” language. Does it rail a rut or not lol
@@dylanp9211 it’s not about what you won ok otherwise he’d be using Suzuki platforms and making zero profits like Suzuki…. Instead every knows Yamaha and Ktm produce the best bikes and after a few years of each successful generation they sell the license to use the old gen shit and what more genus way to make a killer bike and some dollars than by blending the two best bikes on the market and slapping a known motorcycle manufacturer logo with a former world champ who happens to be the Goat to make sales… 🤔
Just a heads up to racer x. I wouldn’t watch anyone else doing these reviews but keefer. Dude is so likable and easy to listen to
Na but FR he is very likable
Hmmmm.....sounds like a bot.
That’s weird bro
Couldn’t agree more
@@HenDiesel what is

Nice job, Keefer!👍👍👍
I love everything im hearing in this video. I wish they made a 350 though. If they did....id say just take my money now

Fantastic looking bike…..and anything developed by the 🐐is going to be brilliant
Keefer is the tips & tricks god. I wouldn’t watch this without him!
My 2025 TX300 came with a spring fork and I love it
😂 remembering your attitude from dirt rider days. That's probably the best review of that 450 I'm going to get ✌️
COOL BIKE ONY 240 WITH SPRING FORK
Trick Good job Cant wait to see look at one the local track

Great review and bike. 👍👍
This is the perfect bike for chase Sexton i think he would dig it !
Man thank you guys I can’t wait to bring this bike to Glen Helen Raceway and put some laps on it 🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
Seems like a good Vet Bike.. Nostalgic and friendly.
Because vet riders have cash money lol
@@scotto_123 smart vet riders arent going to buy a brand new brand and brand new bike. No parts availability and it isnt tested and proven yet.

Keefer. Enjoy your bike reviews. Enjoy more as you still use a trusted pen and note book Keep up the good work
I’d look at one for my next bike for sure. Seems like a Ktm Yamaha mix.

It sounds like Triumph hit a lot of the marks with this bike. I like most of the traits Keefer says this one has.
4:13 Is that dent standard or does it cost extra? Why is the KYB sticker on the shock upside down?
pretty sure it's a water droplet
The bike would be crazy on yellow black.
45 hour piston!?!? wtf I race B class and my Ktm piston lasts 100 hours and still good. Maybe on a 250f sure but a 450!?!?
All Japanese piston service intervals are 15 or 12 hours, Austrian bikes are 45. Read your owners manual 😉
Yeah that's just a recommendation for pro riders. My KTMs go 100+ cranks 200+ aswell.

Recommendation so you can buy more Triumph pistons.
Sales tactic
@@Willwheeler97nope 100 hours is the stander maybe your hours application is meant for pro riders.
i wanna see forkners sx debut with the 250
They make the same "turbo" sound as their street bikes.
Keefer rules.
What we all want to know is Kris. Is it as good as an 07 CRF450❤
Why keef still acting like he doesn’t work for triumph it’s not a secret anymore brother hahahaa
Verdict: smooth as spider silk.
Me too Kris!
Have Hinson indicated if they'll produce an aftermarket clutch for this bike?.
GNCC & Endurocross Monster 💀
I need one
When are they releasing the offroad bikes? I thought 25 was the year?
Sik!

From "Ready to Race" to "Intended to Win" ?
Sorry not the lightest 450 MX bike. The TM 450fi MX is 233lb with spring forks.
In America smartass
i want a jeff stanton edition
Keefer is a legend
Keefer why don't you make any comparisons to the Honda?
Because it’s a Ktm/yamaha clone
@christophervillarreal8565 which Is funny cause those are the only 2 brands ricky never rode or won anything on.

@@christophervillarreal8565 Yamaha ktm and honda best bikes
240lbs isn't light. He didn't say 'with all fluids and FUEL', but is that what he meant?
Free Cooksey, guys. Keefer, I like your evaluation but I don’t like the attack on Cooksey. He is correct in his assessment of the Coombs.
😑 Hey, maybe you're just too much of a moto head😀👍🏾😘😂❤️... Any 'old guy' who just rides, could definitely love that thing..
MR Ducks!!!
😂 For anybody who bought that first Husaberg, ATK, Cannondale, or YZ400?
🏁 The Triumph is probably the clear winner! G.O.A.T. influenced engineering 😔
😂 Mr Keefer, What about the cost of a motocross bike exceeding that of capable road bikes and even ADVs?
And a 3 year old BMW like new.
Idk these triumph bikes look raked out more. Are they?
RC map ,really.
RC EDITION? WTF GET REAL
450 limit is 220ibs it can lose 20 more pounds just imagine it being 20ibs lighter
