A lot of hate on this bike through the test riders and others. But I've heard its just set up bad stock. Any somewhat "fast" guys out there vouch for one or the other? Currently on Austrian bikes 250/450 and looking for some front end feel. Deciding between crf 450 and 350 sxf to be exact if anyone has that comparison.

Pro off-road guy here. I have a 22 450r. It’s a good bike. It’s horribly suspended in stock form though. Frame is rigid but that’s what makes it turn so well and feel nimble. Is it the greater bike I’ve ever ridden? No. But it’s not bad. Takes a lot to get it setup right though.

Cannot believe what a huge difference those 3 mods made.
