Honda

The kid is one of the top A riders and has been riding these for a while. Pretty sure he knows how to start his bike better than you. Cool story tho….

Oh the irony... literally the day before he mentions in an interview that the kick-starter isn't a big deal because it only takes a single kick to start. https://youtu.be/p6I1l5vDyDU

I'm pretty amazed by it, smooth, comfy, extremely nimble and light. Great bike

I have a 22 450R with about 5 hours on it. Coming off of a '19 RWE, the bike is noticeably lighter and more nimble. The engine characteristics are similar to the '19/20 but power delivery seems to be a bit smoother. The hydraulic clutch is new to me but first impressions are positive. I had several of the previous gen. models and really enjoyed them, so I would consider myself a 'Honda' guy. Overall, this is hands down the best 450 I have owned or ridden.

I ended up buying another 19 kx450 . I found one with under 2 hrs on it for 6500 so all my stuff transfers over . At my speed I couldn't justify the extra 5k plus starting over with setup . Thanks guys for your input .

Sounds like a badass machine. Stoked to hear you guys are happy with it bone stock. Thanks for the insight bros. Shit man I want one so bad! @MX558 That’s a really good deal. People sure seem to love that 19 Kawi. I haven’t had the chance to ride one

I give you guys both less than 20 hrs of ride time, before you do some mods. That's half the fun Congrats on the bikes! Will be looking forward to hearing more ride reviews.

4 hours on mine. The 22 is now a solid bike right out of the box. Probably the only bike I’ve ever owned that I’ll keep completely stock.
