Bike Test: 2022 Kawasaki KX450SR Review

[@chrisvozza6530]

I think it is the best looking factory edition bike. The green with those KYB gold colored forks looks soo good

[@Team_Banchamek]

i put the Troy lee gas gas factory edition at number 1 tbh but Kawasaki are my fav

[@herdfreak2]

David Pingree does a great job!

[@mprud2579]

AS soon as i seen the STASH i smashed the the thumbs up ....Rock on Ping!!!!!!!!

[@MacNSteeze21]

My grandpa bought one for himself for Christmas , it’s GORGEOUS in person and sounds GODLY.

[@MacNSteeze21]

@@AnonymousUser-kf8lc Hahaha he’s coming up on 60. Him and his Brother both bought one ! And they still rip out on the track 😂😂

[@erichildreth7562]

Really enjoy watching your reviews Ping! You know what works and what does not and you just tell it like it is!!! Thank you and I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!! :)

[@brokewheels5]

Great video. The factory "works" bikes will be a cool comparison. Dyno numbers on these bikes would be interesting to see the difference over stock.

[@scotto_123]

The stock kx 450 only makes 55hp. Ktm 350 makes more hp. Lol

[@MXJEFF94]

@@scotto_123 Bruh....a few things. The KTM 350 (To make more power) has to be at 12-13k. No one rides there unless you are a pro or have a death wish. The 450's in general are just easier to ride. This is coming from a KTM 350 fanboy (I've owned 3 of them).

[@lewdog8326]

Ping has always been one of my favorites. Sick style. Fast super fast. Was there in Anaheim for his win and laroccos win. 🤙🤙

[@rudysavelli483]

Very cool Dave good informative test thank you my hat goes off to Kawasaki for finally stepping up to the plate and building a special racer race bike very cool now we can all go out and try and find one and try to ride like Eli Tomac nice bike Kawasaki keep up the good work

[@anthonylemke284]

this is my dream bike! thanks for doing this!

[@mrfaceforest]

Yeah yeah, sick bike for sure but can we just appreciate the moustache! 🙂👌🏻

[@jake_thecak3]

WHY did they forget the fork guards...c'mon they should be green with some funky stickers ! It just poke my eye when the rest of the bike looks awesome😍💚💚

[@marynapier3962]

Bad ass bike

[@Kawiboy]

Sweet ride 👍.. Looks and sounds factory as hell.. Thnx Ping 👊

[@mrrandy1]

great bike

[@DavidJDiehl]

Do I need it? No. Do I want it? Yes.

[@craigmccall7450]

Suspension? Not needed. All bumps from Starwest were sent over to Glen Helen a few years back.

[@happyman8488]

Good review, but all I can think about now is Sark Varg. Everything else is just blah blah old news. Maybe if the build these bikes more long lasting I would still be interested.

[@Efemedio1]

Ping, your a very talented man! Great racer, journalist, and of course a firefighter, which I have a lot of respect for! But, its hard to take you seriously with you wearing a beanie and that handlebar mustache. You look like you should be talking about Harley's! LOL!

[@t.wosylukconstruction4892]

looks great

[@sdb92]

Kawie! 😍

[@bretmorgan9367]

yes

[@Davido50]

How many will they build? My local Kawi dealer says he's getting 2. *Not quite sure when tho yet ...leave a dep* . I think I may get a KTM.

[@vitalmx]

400 and a couple were taken for team and media usage.

[@Davido50]

@@vitalmx Thanks for prompt reply. I will talk to my kawi dealer here in Ohio find out when exactly he's getting them. Otherwise it's a KTM SE.

[@jackieonassis7438]

Sick. I want one. Wait, I will need two (gotta have a buddy bike).

[@sigsauer8386]

Kawa 450 il top 😎😎😎

[@ianmcpartland443]

Sweet bike but they already cost to much bring back an Sr 250 two stroke

[@dustin9035]

Its Dirk Diggler!

[@Mostmusicclips]

Kawa want to make allround electric bikes in the future i always love Kawi but only gasoline mx bikes

[@jameshaug6256]

WHAT ARE THOSE GOPRO SETTINGS

[@richardbirger5205]

An a kit suspenssion ?

[@mikestrophytruck]

Anyone know what weight the KYB suspension is setup for?

[@benjimalcom1741]

why doesn’t yamaha have a full factory ride?

[@c01by25]

💥💥💥

[@StayTunedMoto]

12 positions on bars

[@mixgashaulass2988]

“SR” short ratio gearing?

[@vitalmx]

"Special Racer"

[@LegalViewBot]

FIRST BABY

[@Davido50]

First on race 🏁 day tho? 😀

[@joshuabower61]

Over rev? Floating the valves? This is 2022, this bike most definitely has a rev limiter. Which defeats both of those things from happening

[@evanmiller1642]

I to was like wtf did he just say. Float the valves lol

[@jeremysmith7898]

hinson clutch cover is stupid

[@DGfilms1996]

How lol

[@grantchristensen9995]

I like the Honda but all these bikes are more than 90% of us can handle
