Fantastic to see you riding so confidently on this new bike, can hardly believe my eyes. It's a massive change. I would suggest this has the potential to be your best season. Therefore I'd politely, but strongly suggest getting an identical practice bike, getting yourself out tracks which need a different suspension set up and throwing as many laps as is possible into a practise bike, saving the race one fro when it counts. Yes that's a big investment into yourself, but hopefully a worthwhile one too. Whatever you do, I can't wait for the season to start and to see you much further up, mixing it with the big budgets. All the best from the UK

[@NickZambeck]

Thank you for making my lunchtime better 🫶🏻

Holy smoke, man. You're absolutely hauling a$$ on that thing! No hesitation in the corners at all, very smooth transition from braking to acceleration. I don't know what a stopwatch would say, but you definitely look faster on this bike than your previous bikes. Glad you found something that gets you excited to ride and race! Can't wait to see more.

[@thecosmicowl928]

Man watching your vids makes me crave for that 4-stroke fun and I've never ridden a bike before (still trying to fixing up my RM-Z 250) can't wait until i can swing my leg on a dirt bike. Soo while i wait for parts I'll be addicted to watching your vids. Keep it going jeff💪💪

[@thomasphilyaw8593]

I know it's in the same family as KTM, but it's so nice to see you on a Gas Gas and feeling so good. Looking good on the track too.

[@motoxguy7]

Daaaaamn! I actually just paused the Supercross race to finish watching this video!! I can’t believe how that bike sounds. It a nice and mellow rumble with no real big changes between cornering or pinned in the straights! You look fast on this one! Looks like you’re comfortable and taking a bit more risk in the rough areas then you normally do!

[@uncleyetti9553]

Heck yeah that's awesome you/he found something he's happy with and is actually having fun riding and training. Which hopefully in turn means some good results!! Lookin good, JW!! We're excited to be with you this coming season and looking forward to some battles!

[@Kx_287]

Let’s go jeff new bike must be nice

[@tndeere2]

Great job! Look forward to watching this season. Best of luck.

[@Rideordie3143]

Yessssir let’s gooooo new gas gas babyyyyy❤❤❤

[@TB.202]

Love the vids man glad your happy now on that gasgas 🔥

[@kylegarrett4071]

Quite confident on the edge of the track/rolling those fast outsides. I seem to struggle there & new model turns best when I dip into it vs slight sweeping turn. Look solid. Stoked you are setup; it will be here before we know it!

[@kylegarrett4071]

Would love to hear why you are jelling with prev gen

[@mxracer158]

Congratulations on the choice bro. Glad your happy and comfortable on it, your looking solid, good luck this summer. Looking forward to seeing ya qualify and run with the pack.

[@grantflewwelling1260]

Fun seeing you ride at Martin on Sunday!

[@user-mo8tm4jw2l]

Atta boy. Way to go back to a chassis that actually works. Last of the last wit that one. You’re going to be in love with good a kit and chassis this season. To this day that style setup on that era ktm is one of the best bikes I’ve ever swung a leg over. Pumped for ya dude lookin forwards to this season. I’m still going back n forth between the old ktm chassis and my 23 yz450, which I love. Struggling with ergos a bit tho. Your shredding and lookin comfortable man. 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@damonforrest1570]

Just wanted to wish you a safe and healthy season. And hope you can get better overalls. I know it’s very difficult but I know with the proper set up you’ll do amazing.🤙💯✌️🙏🇺🇸👊👍🙌✊

[@jackbozinovski4703]

Jwalk putting the 4 fiddy on rails! Looking sharp brother 👌

[@jpc9168]

If you get back to Florida, you need to stop by 74MX. The new owners have redone the main track and added an advance rider track.

[@patrickmartin459]

Holy Sh@$… i’m super tense just watching the video, you’re ripping it solid 😮😬 👌

[@LilLefty27]

That gen GasGas is so sick. I hate the new plastics on the 24 bikes. Glad you’ve found some comfort!

[@shawnsmith4511]

I haven’t gotten rid of my ‘21 GasGas, just like the feel of it so much better than the newer bikes.

[@ODRoach]

I love this, so happy you found a bike that makes you feel like yourself again! i Rode a 23' 350 last weekend and though it was the best bike i have ever ridden. (coming from a 2 stroke only guy) But just like you I'm getting shoulder surgery so hopefully I can recover!

[@kawicepticon8866]

We can see how smooth you are on the new whip. Smooth is fast my man smooooth is fast

[@taylorj9920]

Man it's been a hot minute since I cut some laps in the dirt but man seeing this makes me miss all out give it all you got and come off feeling like you've just unloaded a years worth of stress in 10 min sesh

[@JeffWalker84]

Get out there man!

[@taylorj9920]

Man for real I need too transitioned to street years ago and it's all cool but it's not the same as literally flying!!

[@ghpjerry]

Nice! Hopefully some Mains coming up this yr. Best of luck.

[@matthewcason5962]

Man your way faster keep up the good work theirs definitely a difference by just watching you ride speed and everything

[@danip113]

Jeff, you look very good this time round. You look very promising!! You are doing very well!! As always following you!! Dan

[@brettegbert6985]

Looks like it was a blessing in disguise ur ktm grenaded! Sucks that it happened but it allowed you the opportunity to explore options. Have fun and ride ur heart out this season! But HAVE FUN doing it! Like my wife says “you can’t ever be too upset about riding a dirtbike” , her response when I get frustrated with my riding

[@Declan_conlan]

5:50 props to the yz250 rider for keeping a decent speed against the machine that is jw lol

[@87motoring]

Just picked up the 23 MC450 last week myself. Local dealership was dumping them and it was too good of a deal to pass up. Excited to see how your race build comes along.

[@nickstillwell3892]

Hey Jeff could you do a video on your bike upgrades I think that would be sweet, looking good though praying for you this year you got it!

[@mryamahapro12]

Love the videos man, haven’t ridden in years and you’re a pro, tbh I think if you stand a bit more on some of the sweeping corners you can gain some time and roll the gas on earlier. Not a critique! Good luck this season!

[@Haydens_Clips]

I was at Martin when you went and it was so fun to watch you ride

[@Dirt_Bike_Dave]

Hey Jeff, you gonna be 100% for outdoors? I know you recently had shoulder surgery and last year I rember your knee giving you trouble. I know you'll go out there anyway just checking your status so far...As always Big Fan and Good Luck..let's Goooooo !! 😃👍 🤘🏁

[@damonforrest1570]

I can’t imagine how fast the top 5 are going cause it looks like you’re going faster with every lap. 🙏👊🇺🇸✌️🤙💯

[@ridingwithtuthless]

Bro you were flying holy balls. I've been wanting a gasgas and this might've sold me on it!

[@yfngme6730]

Brother your shredding 😳😳🔥this is a video I’ve been tryna see 2023 mc450 👌🏼👌🏼

[@SupermotardKit]

to be honest i would love that the POV videos have you talking over it the hole video maybe answering some quiestions, talking about some racces or wahtever

[@Biketherapy113]

surprised you didn't swap to Yamaha after riding that. What do you like about the gas gas that makes you feel like it's the best bike you've ridden?

[@keaneoldknow1633]

This guy better be top 5 at the motocross bc I have never seen him ride this fast in 4 years

[@gerardmongro2475]

Yeah my dude you were fast on the orange bike you’re way faster on this thing🎉

[@Haydens_Clips]

You need to drop the video from last Sunday at Martin, track was gnarly and I need to see what it looked like on the GoPro

[@JeffWalker84]

Dropping soon!

[@Jclutch089]

@@JeffWalker84I would love to see you do some more trail riding videos. Those few trail riding and hill climbing videos you did a few years back are still my favorites you’ve ever posted. I still go back and watch them. I own a 2019 Kawasaki KX 450 and exclusively trail ride and absolutely love it!

[@Chrisworksedition]

Pumped for you brother! Go get em

[@DLoud]

Love the new bike Jeff! Do guys really run stock motor and exhaust in pro nationals?

[@Jraksdhs]

Most 450 guys do. Really no reason to mod the motor. It makes more power than needed. That’s why a lot of privateers run 450’s because they don’t require as much motor work or maintenance.

[@MichaelWoljevach]

do you think also the track itself is a little faster? the wall jump flattened and a couple jumps look a little more laid back. the engine sounds really smooth during acceleration and doesnt look jerky our out of hand at all. 9.27 you passed kawasaki spiderman! dododododoooo. bike looks good tho! suspension gotta be good you send that jump to flat you didnt care where the landing was and thats good! you need to hit up a more dirt track than sand with it to see how it reacts to the hard stuff

[@superswede97]

When it even looks fast on the gopro, that's when you know..

[@Chuck0820-t2l]

Aw i thought it said “first race” so i thought Jeff was actually going to learn some race craft… i dont understand how you can line up to pro nationals without doing any races leading upto it, i would think it would help a lot

[@mattlikesrice_7]

yeahh but he would probably smoke everyone

[@Chuck0820-t2l]

@@mattlikesrice_7 not likely because he wont get to take the perfect smooth line around the whole track every lap, if there even would be one.. and when does he ever practice race starts? The pros do starts every week practicing and on race days

[@ONKINGDAVID]

Holy smokes. I had anxiety watching 😂. I have the factory ed. I thought it was a totally different set up than the 2023. You found it to feel similar?

[@BrettDavidWilliams]

You’re shredding!!

[@andrewwilson9130]

I have a older gen ktm (2021.5) and I was just wondering how much did you pay for the rear Trax shock?

[@flexdubel5870]

At least not 3 sec slower XD good luck for the season man!

[@bikerfail57]

How'd the brakes feel compared to the KTM's brembos?

[@granttcombss]

that thing looks solid

[@MOTOSYMOTOCICLTETAS]

stock ecu? Will you buy the switch to change the maps? Best regards from guadalajara mexico 🔥

[@cannonsmith7429]

Nice! Love my gasgas

[@Jarc22]

hi, i have a question, do you fast guys have a loose grip when braking with the front brake?

[@twitchytwitch9503]

Hey Jeff quick question? What twinwall bar would you say has the least amount of sweep? I wanna get some twinwall bars but I want as little sweep on the bar as possible!

[@connorcrago597]

hey jeff! where is bridgette been? it’s been a little while since we’ve seen her?

[@gw4717]

Nice bike I wish you would of tried the Husqvarna I love mine I won't ever ride anything else I like the gas gas too you rip on that bro

[@tylersvensson4468]

How much better is the xact pro suspension compared to the stock suspension

[@xanderrage9137]

Can I ask what you prefer about the Gas Gas over the KTM

[@London11Kyle]

What didn’t you like about the 2024 450 sxf?

[@ReklessStandard]

Holy shit you did it. Oh man..

[@tobywonkinoby8916]

Congrats on the new bike! How does it compare to your ktm 450sxf?

Jeff where you at Irish Hills today?

[@JeffWalker84]

I was indeed!

@@JeffWalker84 Nice! I was there. My dad said he was riding behind you some of the time, his number was 323.

awesome man! Have you tried the One gripper seatcovers? they are awesome and really grippy

Is there a difference between the red, white and orange bikes? Im on a 17' ktm 250xcw and im wondering how much of a difference there is with a new bike. What's the difference that sold you?

There’s not much of a difference

omg lookin solid💪💪

[@tommy2wheels943]

Flying 🤙🏻

[@brandongambrell]

Seems like the overall consensus is the slower amateur guys love the new frame and pros don’t. Interesting

[@dougiep8464]

I see KTM have admitted they got the chassis wrong for you fast guys. The new MY25 models have heaps of weight removed from the chassis. The media brief talk about 'feel and flex'. Not that I can tell on my 24, you'd lap me twice in one lap.

[@mxqos901]

We are gonna see a different Jeff this year 🔥

[@Joz409]

What camera are u using ??

[@mav459]

You're hauling ass man. 🤘 I'm curious. What do you do for your break-in process when you buy a new bike?

[@woodysrockspyro6436]

Grip it and rip it. They have already been run in at the factory. Change the oil after the first ride though... fast guys change the oil every ride anyway.. or they should oil is cheap.

[@coldsteeloffroad]

@jeffwalker84 you gonna' throw a map switch on that steed?

It's just a 22 ktm on the old frame before ktm made the frame change.

I don’t think you should keep your bike stock gonna be hard to compete for top spots going against factory bikes

So why is this bike so different from your KTM? Geometry, ergonomics, power delivery, combination of all 3?
