[@konnerlawrence7122]

I've meet Eli in person he said the best tip he can give for a rookie is to use the front break more than the rear

[@markostarr4062]

did you ask why? maybe because you carry more speed? as apposed to dragging that back brake? thanks for the comment

[@yzracer14]

Because you have way more stopping power with the front brake.

[@juneavino4727]

I've always used front brake and no one ever told me to do it kinda funny it just always felt right to use the front brake instead of the back i don't tbink I've ever tried using the back brake. But thats awesome i was doing the right thing the whole time even confirmed by a pro abd that's cool he gave u such good advice

[@jamc5166]

I sometimes use the rear brake to slide the back wheel into some shallow ruts but I agree that the front brake is a lot more efficient for straight line braking

[@charlottemakeup3338]

Eli is right. I've been trained and they said you use your front brake more

[@MrExicutioner]

[@honda450rider87]

At 4:00 you can see the right titanium foot peg is bent along the back row of spikes

[@Flowing_Waters]

I think they did that on purpose because the kick starter hits the peg. It happened to me with my works connection titanium foot peg on my 2014 kx450 because the stock ones are skinny.

[@Womb2DaTomb]

I noticed some comments asking about a price on this bike, so that got me thinking how much would this cost? Using ONLY off-the-shelf parts (so no factory, works parts "unobtanium"), also no engine modifications (clutch, tranny etc) I did some window shopping, tried to find every visible part I could think of, please feel free to add more if I missed anything! (Everything in GBP) 2018 KX450F - £6,999 KYB Suspension (Fork + Shock combo) - £4,500 Pro Circuit Ti6Pro - £979.99 Pro Circuit Airboot - £599.99 X-Trig ROCS Clamps - £409.99 D.I.D ST-X Rims ONLY (Stock spokes and hubs) - £419.99 Dunlop MX3S Front + Rear Tyre - £115.99 Renthal Fatbar - £66.95 Renthal Full Waffle grips (soft) - £10.99 ARC Levers (set) - £175.99 Hinson Clutch Cover - £182.32 Hinson ignition Cover - £399.95 Renthal Ultralight Sprocket set - £69.95 D.I.D 520VX2 Chain - £77.95 Acerbis plastics GREEN - £104.99 D'Cor Visuals full graphics - £129.95 D'Cor Visuals seat cover - £69.95 Total: £15,313.94

[@bbdl7042]

Casey Lee you can add a c4 stage 3 motor for 4500 cash and also the vortex cdi with tune for 900-1000, go top end hubs ( not sure on price ) clamps are 1100 and it just keeps going

[@bbdl7042]

I know some of these bikes reach around 20-25k normally. There was a fully built 2016 CRF450R making 67hp the showed full detailing on the build.

[@justinhorter4229]

Fork and shock are "A" kit... Bigger diameter fork tubes and shock slide. I believe they are 51mm tubes instead of the stock 48mm. That suspension is gonna cost you 10,000...

[@justinhorter4229]

You can buy a bike real close to this. Talon hub/ excel rims for 1,500 Pro-curcuit can do the exhaust and head mods. Stage 2 hotcam and vortex ignition will get you close to the power this bike has. Expect to pay about 30, 000 total and it will be close to.this bike but its still not a factory bike

[@bbdl7042]

Forgot to add the real cost of A class suspension. And we haven’t started doing all the smaller stuff and the all the ti bolts that’ll run a few k

Are those air forks on the Kawi? I was surprised seeing air forks on the factory Yamaha's raced in Europe. No way they work as good as the spring sss. Maybe lighter.

[@tonithompson9086]

thanks, I can't watch this clips worth a crap...still on dial-up speeds out here in the bush.

[@jackwade1166]

could someone tell me how they get the pipe looking like that?

[@cskovach]

It's made out of titanium, which can be "anodized" either by controlled heat with a torch or through an electrolytic bath with precise voltage control if a more uniform result is desired. In the case of heat, the color is simply the result of oxidation which varies depending on the temperature the metal reaches when in contact with oxygen. Light yellows = lower heat, blues and purples = greater heat. Of course some coloration will result from the temperature of the exhaust gas itself. You will notice a similar discoloration on the foot pegs as a result of the heat associated with welding the assembly together.

[@charliemike13]

I’ve heard that a full works bike can cost around $80,000? Anyone know if that’s true or be willing to tell me more about it? That seems really steep and I’m wondering what all they do to it to make it cost that much? I’m assuming there is a lot they do with the engine, however, I also thought there were rules they had to follow for keeping the bikes close to stock out of fairness? It would seem, if this is true, that the privateers don’t have a chance and that the bikes are not close to stock at all!
