JB479 Added a reply to 2020/2019 KX450 to replace Husky FC450 Rockstar Edish
10/6/2019 11:48pm Not sure if it helps. I had an 18 fc450 then a 19 350sxf (cone valves on them). Bought a 19 kx450f. Done about 30hours on it. Im riding better then i ever have before. All ive done is had the suspension revalved. One thing to consider is the quality of the kx compared to the euro bikes isnt as...

JB479 Added a reply to Do you modify your suspension?
9/13/2019 3:02am Ive had cone valves etc on my ktm but this past 2 months bought a new 19kx450f put 10hours on it with stock suspension. Then sent it away to have revalved. i gave the tuner feedback on what the stock stuff was doing. When i got it back ive never noticed such a big difference from stock to setup stuff...

9/7/2019 10:12pm I just replaced my oem chain and sprockets at 18 hours but my chain guides top and bottom still have plenty of life? I only replaced the lower chain roller because it was pretty worn. maybe different track conditions and riding styles?

8/24/2019 2:59am The most frustrating part is the kid has really good technique and is a very smooth rider.
JB479 Added a reply to Geico running production showa forks?
8/22/2019 9:23pm It looks to me like hunter and rj are running the same as their amateur team now compared to hangtown and early rounds where he ran Kit kyb stuff.

8/22/2019 5:09pm Anyone know why hampshire and hunter have switched backed to the showa fork? It doesn’t look like it even has lower coatings. Sexton is still running KYB. Maybe ML512 can explain

8/10/2019 9:10pm Did u change the shock at all? Id imagine your stock shock setup would be to soft for the new fork setup? I rode mine bone stock at a rough sand track. Could not get on top of the sand. Bike was just getting sucked down. Way too soft.

8/10/2019 9:01pm He past amart on the last lap of the 2nd moto, theres no way he goes back to amateurs. Hes ready for pro’s.

8/7/2019 1:39am Alot of people wont know this but Jett Lawrence will only be on his amsoil bike not a factory geico bike. Those amsoil bikes are really close to stock. They run production suspension, stock clamps etc. If jett could get a top 10 on that bike thats huge. Shimoda will be fully factory so i think he will do better

7/30/2019 11:06pm He turns 16 early next week what’s stopping geico from putting him on hunters bike for the last 3 rounds?
JB479 Added a reply to Let's see/review those 2019 kx450s
7/29/2019 1:05am Only got 4 hours on it and my last 3 bikes have been euros 450s and 350s. To be honest the kx feels alot lighter on the track and turns better then my 19 350. I have noticed that the ktm/huskys have better connectivity to the rear wheel. but im still running stock suspension on the Kawasaki. I personally think...

7/28/2019 1:16am Picked up a 19 new last week, done about 4hours on it. Really happy with it coming from a 19 350sxf with cone valves. Obviously im still running stock suspension and havent had it revalved. Has anyone had trouble with the front end pushing/knifing in more sandy turns especially with a hard base underneath? Im running 105 sag and forks...

7/14/2019 2:17am Yeah man, he went 1-1 at Assen. He had only been on a 250f for 12 months. Pretty crazy. Yeah i watched those vids. Its hard to say cause i think jett’s amsoil bike is probably alot slower then hunter factory geico. They dont run akit or anything on there amsoil bikes. I hope he does the last 3 rounds...

7/14/2019 1:01am Silly question but besides plastics/graphics. Did kawi change anything on the 450 for 2020? Like suspension settings etc? Its hard to find info.
JB479 Added a reply to Hunter Lawrence - Outdoors (Redbud for eg)
7/14/2019 12:43am Hes probably better then hunter at assen. I would send jett on a 250. Hunter and beaton/evans on a 450 but jett will get overlooked which sucks. People dont realise how good jett is. He has throttle control they you can’t teach. He natural ability is amazing.

7/3/2019 12:22am Hes been riding well just needs a top 5 start. Im pretty hes driving to all the races aswell with his family and mechanic?

6/29/2019 11:05am yeah watched every race. He was never on the best equipment (apparently) in europe, (slow factory suzuki and privateer 114 team). So i thought him being on a factory geico bike he would be consistently doing better especially in sand..
