Rode/Raced our buddies 22 and it was amazing. Smooth as silk over the small chop and just a perfect motor for anyone above a beginner .. Appreciate it fellas 👏👊✌️😉
That's the bike for me!! Im an older vet guy that rides a '21 KX450. I love my bike but would love to try that Factory Edition. Don't think I could afford double the price though.
I haven't ridden a Kawi since 2018 but the love it's been getting the last 3 years has me wanting to throw my leg over one to see what it's all about. The last KX450 I rode was underwhelming to say the least. The components felt cheap and the guy I knew with the bike had nothing but problems. I'm a converted Yamaha guy (didn't start that way) but it just seems to me the YZ450 is a better value. Stronger engine, generally speaking better reliability, superior suspension (I was stoked last year when Kawi's SR used KYB suspension) and unbeatable mapping customization that makes many aftermarket engine upgrades unnecessary for 99% of riders. I still can't believe Kawi has stuck with the coupler system. That being said, I'm open minded to the idea of it being better than I remember any previous green machine I've ridden. I still want to know how the SR's reliability stacks up to the stock bike long term? This has always been Kawi's downside to me.
@@hunterhill1013negative, a kit by definition is titanium components in a oversized body cartridges or shock bodies. Most of the time 52-53mm in diameter over the most time standard 48mm body
For $13K I hope they at least matched up the Clutch and Brake levers. A kit suspension and only a $13K price tag? I'm having a hard time believing that.
Always like watching your reviews. Thank you for them!!! Motor to motor...how does this compare to the 2019 CRF 450 RWE?I remember you guys talking about how great that motor was. Thanks again!

Team Green ALWAYS!
I wish they kept KYBs. Now I’ll have to get the YZ450
Stock 2023 YZ450F is better anyway , much much cheaper , more power , better suspension , superior engine mapping system etc...
I'm sure the bike is much easier to ride also when dudes don't land on you. Glad Kyle wasn't injured. The bike looks awesome. Great stuff as always.
Come on man!!!! LOTW weekly post!!! Let's F'ing GOOO!!! Where's Frappy Mike?!!
Cannot wait to get one!!!!
I absolutely love my sr ❤️
Too bad they moved away from the KYB, but I may still want to get one. The power character sounds great.
Kawasaki forever 🏆

Everything iv seen makes it sound like the suspension is not kit suspension. Just stock stuff with coatings and maybe different springs/valving
What do yoh think that A kit suspension is?
Its just stock stuff with coatings and different valving and springs...

@DB316 wow. Here in Colorado I saw it for $13K
@DB316 ouch.

@@craigkosters716 got a local dealer here in Denver, $12600!before taxes
They say 12,500 but after checking 5 dealerships its out the door at 14k to over 15 thousand on the quotes.
If kawi knows the motor work better with these port changes why wouldn’t every bike have that….

I just got the 23 sr my 22 crf450r was faster for sure
@@KICKERMAN124 How do you compare both? I am on the fence, whether to purchase a new SR or a 24' CRF WE?
