Ive never seen a bike that was ridden on saturday.. thats made me want to place an order on sunday.
Hunta rode like a great salesman!
It’s clear that he was mentally in this one. Passing Sexton back and showing that he was not gonna roll over for him. Sexton has done som spicy passes on Hunter this season and now he did one back for once.
It's going to be the bIke to have in 25 anyway. This just stamps it
Chase got too confident that he'd be able to pass Hunter at will, IMO. Shouldn't have waited
that was insane. When dungey rode the 15.5, I placed an order that Tuesday. Absolutely insane how good he looked. What a race! Track is so sick...

The 23 Honda must have been the bike to have to if we base it on results 😅
I have to ask…how many here really believe that Honda was bone stock? Seriously? I’d be shocked if it wasn’t running factory suspension and other hard parts not on that you’ll see on the stock bike when it’s released. Hunter is good…and rode well today, but he beat full-on factory bikes.
I don’t think anyone thinks that it’s stock. But it’s still production-based. So if a stock model is better overall I’d imagine it’s a higher floor to start with.
The bike looked very good.
Ofc it has factory suspension, brakes, clutch and electronics. It has been ridden in MXGP the whole season and they have plenty of parts they can use from that program.
I have to admit this is the first Honda i’ve considered since I bought my 1998 CR250, which ultimately made me switch to Kawasaki and then KTM.
No one thinks it’s bone stock… who ever said anything about that? Lars clearly said they tested it for 4 days and came up with a setting that Hunter felt was better than his 2024.

Ouch. My hands still hurt from that thing.
I must admit, Hunters Honda looked much more planted than Chases KTM. Up until today, I wouldn't have ever thought that. Maybe Honda has something for 2025
so does my right shoulder!
First break in ride on my 97 CR250, 6 hour trail ride. My torched monkey butt ass has never been the same since then.
I think Lars said "race trim" a few times in that interview
I didn’t read, watch, or hear that interview with Lars. When I heard Hunta was riding the “2025 CRF450” I assumed it was being promoted as a pre-production model. My bad.
The 25 CRF's have been released so not a pre pro. Your making your profile pic look bad. Lol. Hurricane!!!!!!!
Ring Ring …… Hello Hunter its Lars. We will double your bonus money IF you can win a moto at Unadilla and triple it IF you win the overall …… talk about motivation !!! ✊
Pit Row
Dangggg the 24 Honda laying it down on the 25 Honda this moto!! Everybody quick call the dealer tell them you want a leftover 24!!!!
Going to need to call them back and say nevermind I want a '25.
They made the Honda feel like a KX or a KTM.
And still got stomped today. Dang. Too bad
Stopped isn’t exactly 1-2 versus 2-1 thats kind of equal 🤣
Oh god. Hunter used the break to rest and recover. That crash at Red Bud rang his bell more than they wanted to let on. He's back to looking as good as when he had Jett out there.
Am i the only one that thought it kicked his but more than ussual?
Before you flame me, Hunter is my #1.
Great sales pitch by Honda. Looks like it worked on you guys.
That is why the factories go racing, after all.
I think they probably made their quota after today.
The bike was NOTICEABLY much more planted to the ground and it looked like it was on rails and went wherever hunter wanted. Looked much better than the 24, jett is going to be a problem on that bike.
Not because of Hunta's ride but the magazine tests, I've steered clear of Hondas because of the setup and steering issues. It definitely wasn't a vet bike. I might be thinking about it again. I've always liked Hondas.
Lots of suckers. There's one born every minute, they say.
Not in the first moto, but yeah I noticed that in the second. Could have been one of a few things:
They tweaked the setup slightly from moto 1, but missed the mark.
Hunter wasn’t pushing as hard, so the bike was reacting differently.
The track was drying out and the bumps had more of a square edge.
Or a combination of all of the above.
