Also, even though a ton of 450RX parts are compatible with Beta's RE/RR/RS line-up, which also means great availability, there isn't much aftermarket stuff and research available solely aimed at the RX.

I'd love to be able to get the ecu tuned to move the power around a little on mine, but it's not really possible at this time. Plus with there being such a small amount of units around it doesn't make financial sense for Twisted or XPR to put any time in development. 

Don't even get me started on that $899 retail FMF slip-on.

Lil' D, where you at? Laughing

Thanks Manny. FMF just released their 450 full ti system, and while on par with other full ti systems cost wise, it would just be for the bling factor as my bike already has plenty 'o power for my slow ass. I'd much rather have a re-programmed ecu to spread the midrange out a little.

Suspension is going to Enzo asap. Can't wait to see what Ross is going to do with it. The forks are harsh in braking bumps and the shock is harsh on acceleration bumps, but I am about 10 lbs over the the window. That said, it's super stable, doesn't do anything unexpected or ass puckering, and other than the shitty Maxxis ST front tire, it turns really well.

Do you have an RX?

Finally saw a triumph in person yesterday. Fit and finish seem excellent and to me it’s exactly what I thought, a ktm/yamaha combination. I dig it and if they ever get on the 350 train I’ll be a buyer. I’d be nervous to snag a 250 now though for fear of parts availability.

I haven't seen one anywhere around the local tracks here and usually you see all the new models first. Shit, the two dealers by me STILL haven't gotten one yet.

Dear God, Manny. I was talking about seeing a Triumph. Laughing

I have a 450RX already.

That price is almost in KTM land by the time you throw tax at it.

D&D Cycles in Pensacola has a few Triumphs in stock last I heard. I figured they would fly out the door but that doesn't seem to be happening.

I thought someone posted they had one but I can’t recall where it was, could have been across the pond.  I think the dealers say is coming soon.  

I've only seen one person actually have one.  And that was a couple days ago on IG.  My local dealer says they keep getting delayed and they were promised them months ago.
