Great video, thanks for the content !! Question about the bike's handling if you would ? At the start of your ride, turns appear to understeer/headshake, not track as intended. Then you appear to of gotten used to the twitch some commonly refer to it as. What's your driver weight, sag, fork position and bars, I assume suspension is in it's stock clicker settings correct ? I'm a diehard Honda owner, first time ever I bought another brand over the 21-22 bikes. Pro-vet rider, best handling frame are the 2018, 2008, 1987 in my personal experience owning these model years so there is some bias.

How does this compare to the R version.

[@chrispnz]

Same bike with little off road tweaks. So it's very very similar

[@ShorrockPaul]

@@chrispnz i read that the ECU settings are different . basically the most aggressive on the RX is the least aggressive on the R . Suspension is softer /more plush than the R. i am yet to ride so only going on what i have read. (seen on youtube)

[@chrispnz]

@@ShorrockPaul yes. It's been tweaked for off road riding as you mention. I still think the mapping is aggressive so I'm not sure on that part. It's certainly not lacking in power!

I just got my 250rx I traded in my “16 rmz450 cuz it was way too much unnecessary speed for me and I’ve ridden a “20 250r and my rx is a 22 and they feel almost exactly alike
