Dgrit, did the same thing. Retired the 2019 CRF 450R WE for the 2020 YZ 450F. In my humble opinion the YZ is a much better bike for the 50+ vet rider. Stable, smooth power delivery and compliant. Rode it back to back on rough track with the WE. No comparison. YZ super plush stable and that's with stock suspension! WE suspension has been set up for my ability and my weight. The Honda is a great bike for PRO/FAST guys. At 52 the YZ suites me better. Look forward to racing it in my OTMX series next year.

9/24/2019 8:17pm I raced a buddies 17 KTM 350.

I was really torn between the YZ250F, ktm350 and another 450 (any brand). My son has the 19 CR250f. I almost...

9/24/2019 7:53pm I bought a new 2020 YZ450. love it! had a 18 KX450. I liked it also. At age 54 and a unchiseled 235 I watched all the 450 shoot outs I could fine about the motors and suspension. Yes the Yami is way more comfy stock or modified. I liked ML512's info and Keefer's insight. I read MXA and Dirt...

Let's address these one by one. We had a typo, that didn't effect anything, oh well. I think it's funny more than anything, mostly because now I get to tease Joe about it and we got a good reply/photo meme from it. I stated in my pre-Shootout and Shootout video I was using a 2019 RM-Z450 due to there only being cosmetic changes and a lack of 20 availability when I wanted to start. I never said anything about MXA, I actually heard Jody told the KTM crew that participating in the last day of my shootout was probably a...
