That’s a good area to live if you like riding. 3 hrs south of there and there’s so many NC tracks to choose from. Sucks they’re so far for me though. Never rode Morgan’s Corner before. Glad you like the channel! Some plans this coming season. I’m going to try to get into regular uploads. Takes so much time to produce decent ish content, every compliment is motivation to keep it going!

Thanks man! Big plans this year hoping to get the camera back out!

The power is very smooth and controllable with that 450 pull at the top! It makes power like a 250 with no drop until the redline. When you wanna go though just give it a little more pepper and be reminded this isn’t lites bike.

Thats seriously unlucky. Hope you heal up fast man! Only thing I can say in my case, my suspension was done by Brad at KB5 and since then, casing and over jumping have been way more forgiving. Hope to see ya back out there soon!

@@MotoJustin28 yeah I just learned about KB5 right after I got my suspension done somewhere else. First ride on it got headshake 3rd pinned on my 450 and went down hard. (First time in my life crashing from head shake). Second ride came up a little short on this triple and destroyed my knee. My suspension might me too soft. Not sure can’t ride long enough without crashing to make adjustments lol. I typically rarely crash.

Falling a lot at first lol. But fr, staying smooth all the time. Think smooth. Smooth throttle all the way. Smooth steady balancing. Stay calm and let the rut take you. I hardly turn the bars at all and just lean, only staying upright because I’m trusting the rut, and giving it (smoothly) more gas when I start to fall. A bad habit I definitely had and I think everyone has for a while with ruts is jerky throttle. To help get the feel. Shift up (to lower the rpms and power delivery) and try not to use the clutch. Hope I could help!

@@MotoJustin28 ok I think that makes sense. The idea of throttling out of the lean? I guess the physics of it makes sense you can’t hold that angle with out some acceleration. My biggest issue is I tense up and don’t commit so my bike stands up and I end up jumping out of the rut. I’m gonna go and practice that smooth approach a bunch of times and see if I can get it.

@@s2_cool756 a lot of people underestimate turning and just how much of a commitment it is. Jumping has its obvious dangers and turning, at least for me, I never considered a big deal till I really tried to pick up the pace. The only way to do that is to get lower and give it more throttle. The commitment to a fast, low corner especially a bigger turn that’s higher speed is just as much if not more in some cases than jumping. There’s lots of videos on cornering (definitely watch some that discuss foot placement /tennis grip /setup etc.) but staying smooth and keeping that mindset helps me the most.

@@MotoJustin28 amazing thanks so much

I’ve got a GoPro hero 8 black. I film and upload in 2K at 60fps. I also import and upload through filmora9 video editing software. That’s for my titles and any minor color enhancements or any editing I do. Also uploading through Filmora I can choose my upload quality and change aspect ratios to match the highest possible. Then KZbin always compresses the videos a bit, that’s where my fuzziness came from on my older videos. I’m just now starting to get the hang of it. I’m gearing up for some more videos this year.

Every jump here is definitely doable on a 125. Nothing is really a stretch on the 250f. If you’re stretching on a 250f then a stock 125 doesn’t have it, but that’s not the case here. Every jump is caseable without much consequence and have nice safe lips. You should be good to send it. The more speed you can carry through the turn the better.

@@MotoJustin28 I'm getting new tires on my 125 was thinking of riding here or Happy Ramblers. Track looks fun those ruts were crazy I always end up looking down right at them. So used to riding hardpack.

Definitely a new experience. I plan on going back for more rut practice in the spring!

I’m using a second mouthpiece, with JB weld to create a flat face to glue a normal mount too. GoPro upside down. Cheap and it works. Lol. I need to get a proper mount to pull my angle down a tad.

It’s very solid. I have had no issues besides the usual loose bolts upon break in. Pretty common issue. Could’ve been dealer assembly for me, but I had my sprocket keep coming loose on me at 5-10hrs. Ended up over tightening each one with red thread lock to keep em from backing loose. More than likely I wallowed out the holes in my hub when it came loose the first time. Other than that. I love the bike. 65hrs strong with a built engine and valves haven’t moved at all. Still solid.

The only complaint I’ve heard about this bike at all is that the power is mellow at the bottom end. Those are your Yamaha guys who want a bike to hit so hard on the low end they can’t control it. I HIGHLY recommend the 21’ Kawi 450 for the opposite reason. Its smooth Low end power delivery (smooth for a 450. She still hits hard if you want her too) makes it a very good bike to get comfortable on and race. The cool part for me is that it delivers the power like a 250 in that mid to high rpm she’s a beast! That mid hit is perfect for pulling you out of turn and turns better than any bike I’ve ridden. But the most notable thing is the straight line stability. Zero head shake, like the 2020 250s and older frames. But overall. Yes. she’s a beast through all 5 gears and know it’s power is mid to top. I will be buying a 21 kx450 or 250 for myself this year for sure. Waiting for warmer weather. Lol

How is Honda crf450 I heard new Honda crf450 is not best bike of 2021 is good as Yamaha or kaw is power there Which one out Honda kaw or Yamaha ready race of showroom floor im big fan of Eli tomac is his bike stock How do you like Yamaha yz450 What will these bike do on top end 2021 Yamaha yz450 This will be my first 450 bike never been on 250 or 450 I been on 125 rmz and kx100-125 they wasn’t stock bike either U think be happy with kaw 450 2021 I want bike has raw power hit Can kaw 450 do that Does all 450 do same speed top out

@@carlboykin6534 I’m assuming your rmz125 is an rm, and kx125 are both 2 stroke Mx bikes and not the 4 stroke trail bikes. Either way if you’re riding even a factory 125 It’s not going to compete with a new 250f. Fully recommend getting a 250. All around great bikes. No Honda’s or Suzuki’s. Both 250s are pretty gutless. All others are going to be fast and hit way harder than a 125. Best thing I can say is there’s no jump I couldn’t hit because my 250 wasn’t fast enough, and typically a 250 can jump everything a 450 can.

How is new 2021 Honda crf450 Is fast bike on market or does it suck I’m thinking about 450 but 250 maybe How is Yamaha yz450 is good as kaw 450 I into motocross not fan of trail riding I like jumps hit wimpy dos but will 250-450 go through trail if have to Can 450 go over 100 mph How does kaw 250 and 450 handle Is power in every gear like kx 100 was Is 4 stroke stronger better then old kx100 2 stroke Eli tomac kx 450 is it stock

@@carlboykin6534 Its all preference too brotha 🤷🏼‍♂️Every rider has their favorite bike. Like he said tho your best bet is a new kx250f or yz250f they are the top 250s for the money ready to race.

Dirt is crazy. Dublin Gap Mx in PA. Great technical track, with lots of riders like the day I went it was very deep 2’ ruts in some spots. I love the Kawi! I’ve rode just about every new frame out there and in my opinion Kawis are the best all around bike. Now 2020+ their engines are fast, High revving, and pull so hard. By far they feel the lightest and are so much slimmer than the other bikes. Unfortunately I’m 5’ 9”. But being a slim bike I’m very comfortable on them. ‘21s are even better.

Nice! Love the kx superminis!

@@MotoJustin28 yeah their sick

Yeah it’s all the same track. It’s huge!

@@MotoJustin28 Damn!

AKZ magz I like the bike for so many reasons. I’ll be turning 50hrs in my this Wednesday and no engine problems. I run nothing but Royal Purple XPR and change it every 5-8 hours with oil filter. I change/ clean air filter every ride and occasionally go through bearings and grease each one. I have Brad Keeney at KB5 do all engine and suspension work. He built the motor for me and re seated valves. Checked everything up top and it looked good at 32hrs. I know I’m hitting that limiter a lot and I know it’s hard on the bike. Maintenance and tuneups are what keep this bike together. Like all Kawis. I’ve had a few bolts come loose, but blue thread lock on and they’re all good.

Crater I’ve seen my channel boost a lot switching to chin mount. It’s my favorite so far. I’d like to get it down a tad. But I need to buy a proper mount, you should see the diy jbweld/tie strap mount I made. Works well but it’s as low as I can go with it. Got any ideas?

Moto_Justin_28 me personally I don’t use GoPros at all or anything like that so I’m not exactly sure but I would just look up different mounts and reviews of people using them and also if you find a big motocross youtuber with a camera angle you like I would just try to find out what they use

ballou1777 thanks! Usually I’ve got it consistent. But it was cross rutted at the bottom and slick. I didn’t like the setup for it at all that day and wasn’t gonna risk it on a practice day.

L B I hit it a couple times but bike had 1.5 hrs on it when I rode so wasn’t going to hammer it. Camera doesn’t pick up the limiter very well though. Kinda disappointed in that. 😂

Emily Queen Disputanta VA. Great track!

xsnes FTW thanks man. I’m trying to get back out tomorrow and actually remember the whole camera setup. (Not forget SD card in the laptop again 😂) It means a lot really!

They’re both pretty similar and I like that. Comparing frames only the new frames feel lengthened and almost stretched. Not as y’all of a bike. But it still turns very nicely. Maybe it’s because of the 450 power it pulls you right out of a corner but was not bad at all. The new frame feels a tad wider around the shrouds but not by much and straight line stability is even better than my 20’. Dive into braking bumps with confidence. Both bikes ride and feel like kawis. This video is my actual first time on the new frame and I got totally comfortable by the 3rd lap.

Steve Lucero I’ve got a GoPro hero 8 black. I film and upload in 2K at 60fps. I also import and upload through filmora9 video editing software.

@@MotoJustin28 love it! Thanks ma man for taking the time to write me! I will give it a try as I just getting back into riding and never filmed or done editing either! Excited to try it out! I have a 2021 KX250 so excited to get the thing! Be safe! Braaap

Steve Lucero you too man! Be safe as well. I like seeing guys getting back into it. The sport is slowly growing again and it’s awesome!

ballou1777 definitely like it! I’m very tempted to do what I did last time I rode a new kawi...

AeroR I got the recall too. When I get some time I know I’ll be off the bike I’ll drop it off at the Kawi dealer. My engine guy said the stock springs are a little thin and in a couple instances a very small piece may break off the end of the coil. It’s not too common and I just had this engine built 5 hrs ago so they’re tight. I wouldn’t be too worried. If kawi’s gonna fix something for free though, imma get it done. Thanks man!

Derek Hallman thanks man. You were too!

@@MotoJustin28 nooo I was slow lol!

Jimmy Meister wish I knew better back then. Too late now. I’d have to kill all the audio. I fkn hate it too.
