The key to riding this bike (you can even ride it in tight, slow going trails easily) is clutch control. People who struggle on the 450rl usually are the type who think the clutch is only used for taking off and switching gears (and holding the clutch in to rev it up lol).
@theatvfamily 2 күн бұрын
yeah i use the clutch on everything. this is still extremely jumpy even with clutch use, somethimes even more so
@roycemartin9068 2 күн бұрын
@@theatvfamily it is jumpy for sure. I’m talking about the infamous “flameouts” that people talk about. They don’t really happen to me unless it’s user error with the clutch. As far as the twitchy throttle, it’s something you just have to get used to

Dumb joke alert: Your brother was moms favorite. 😂😂😂 (I love my 450RL) I just don't understand why other people don't like it. It is the ultimate Zombie Apocalypse survival vehicle. Granted, you do need to chip, tune, and rip out all the EU garbage, but its like a goldwing for the dirt.

@@ChaosAttractor13 that’s opinion. Not everyone wants a jumpy throttle. If I want the performance of an Mx I would get it. I want precision and fine control which this does not have at all. The Klx is way better trailing slow and steady. Feathering in tricky situations

The KLX is a great bike. I love it and the 300L. Its on the highway where the 450RL shines. Give it some more seat time. I have a 2025 Sherco 500 SEF on order, so I may have to crown a new king. I loved riding the Sherco in a Super Moto configuration. Thanks for the response. Love the channel.

A throttle tamer will fix any jumpy throttle. I don't use one because I have no enduro race ambitions. I like popping wheelies. Plus, the tune calms it down a little. But I get it, the KLX is pretty much ready to go off the showroom. But I love tinkering and modifying everything I have. I am always chasing perfection.

The HoBao Hyper VS2 is of better build quality than the standard RTR SERPENT SRX8-E . If someone is going to buy a SERPENT to race seriously , they buy the PRO SERPENT KIT . The RTR is average quality , and their shock towers are weak , especially if you land on them if a jump goes awry wrong . The SERPENT PRO has 7075 CNC where as the RTR only has 6061 alloy . 6061 shock towers on a heavier 8th scale buggy are weaker and cannot take impact if landed on without bending .

I’ve had this rtr for over 2 years now. Also have the kit. I raced with the rtr no issues at all. Striped servo horn was all I did. I disagree, serpent is extremely better quality than the Hobao. Hands down. Plus serpent is on shelves at local hobby store and almost every part is available in the Miami warehouse and within a day or two. Plus the Hobao is more expensive. Serpent is proven that’s a fact. Hobao isn’t a bad unit but I don’t compare them at all. The rtr is of course going to have the cheaper parts. That’s all rtrs. But rtr vs rtr. Not even a comparison to any other company. And this is just from experience

Glad to hear it's good. My dad and I are kinda thinking about getting back into RC (and 1/8 truggy is our favorite) now that the track that's near-ish us is open year round instead of just the winter. But dropping ~$700 just for a roller (tekno, since the last ones we had were teknos) and then at least another ~$400 on electronics, plus batteries and a charger... thats just too much at once to get back into it. A ~$400 decent RTR truggy (just need batteries and charger) on the other hand... But I think we're both gonna end up getting mini-zs soon since they're cheap and look fun, and are easy to find somewhere to drive, but this is definitely in my back pocket for his birthday.

The MX wheel setup would be 21 and 19. The 21 and 18 is identical to the cross country race bikes, the RX models for Honda. I had a 2021 KLX300 which I traded in because it had an electrical issue (still under warranty) and I was tired of waiting for the dealership to sort it out. I was going to get a new KLX300 but there was a used CRF450L with only 750 miles, for about the same price. I decided to do the upgrade. Man, oh man! Huge difference! I did go ahead and invest in an aftermarket ECU which really helped to smooth out the power delivery and make it more linear, but also increased the power. I got a switch to be able to go from full power to an enduro mode which smooths it out even more. I also had to order a Seat Concepts seat immediately to replace "The Log Splitter". It's my commuter, it's my light ADV bike, and it is also my backup single track bike. It truly is a do-it-all machine. Nothing wrong at all with the KLX300.
