You had me at “Renthal Bars”

[@jestonjump5647]

Keep em coming

[@lrrs428]

One of the best ones yet

[@guyjeffrey3999]

That thing is sooo trick! Kawasaki factory race bikes are amazing, the fact that they are CNC machining their own parts, that is as factory as a team can get under the production ruling.

[@chrisvozza6530]

Beautiful 👍👍

[@garyeasdale1004]

all the works finshed. ride time

[@motobisVlog]

Wow! Thats my dream Bike Can't wait to have it soon🙂

[@simonsimcic8154]

It would be so cool if everyone would have factory bikes

[@TOMVUTHEPIMP]

All that tech and Dean Wilson on a privateer bike still smoked him.

[@patrickfarrell7598]

His bike is faaaaaaaar from a typical privateers bike!

[@Aint1S]

Pat's right, Rockstar got him hooked up! Rockstar ⭐ FTW 👍🏼 Dean is a Rockstar exclusive rider, they went above and beyond to give him some real help. Best energy drink every. He may not be a member of Rockstar Husqvarna, but his results are reflectant of a sponsor who takes pride in their rider! It's a love story! ⭐

[@patrickfarrell7598]

Facts bro! Only thing his bike lacks is factory suspension which doesnt seem to be effecting him too much! Shoutout Rockstar 🌟 for hooking him up but Deano deserves a FULL FACTORY ride!

[@radtothepowerofsick1]

Will be interesting to see how Osborne goes on the 450 factory husky might be kicking themselves for letting deno go!

[@ryderdell5117]

Yeee

[@mxracing29]

Savagy's going to need more than that to have any chance to podium....stay in the gym longer savagy that machine is a privilege

[@michaelstewart3042]

Kawasaki forever

[@TheJoesmoe1987]

Dope

[@Aint1S]

This guy makes the mechanic for Tomac appear to be just a little less knowledgeable... Okay, it's really noticable!

[@peanutjellyman]

Haha right, I was just thinking that. He really told us nothing about Tomac's bike lol

[@patrickfarrell7598]

Eli and his mechanic Brian K are just more "hush" dont tell kinda guys! They have also been fighting for championships for the past 3 years they are NOT going to tell all about the bike in fear to show strengths and weaknesses to competition!

[@Aint1S]

@@patrickfarrell7598 To be honest, all of the bikes are built to the maximum spec that could be allowed. It's only about the modifications for rider preference and hardware they're running to suit their needs. Doesn't really matter if they talk about the hardware because they're not breaking down characteristics of how the bike performs and nothing more than rider preference. Rider preference with hardware is the limit of how far they're going with these and even Shantie knows Eli's settings... Not too much of a secret. ET's mechanic was pissing in the wind and you're soaking it up. You can take up for him, it is what it is... Savatgy/Shantie are going out of their way for moto publications as well as their the fans, but they're definitely not revealing anything about tuning curves etc.

[@yourefireed]

Aint1S I mean, the fuck you care if they talk or not? Pretty much sure he has way bigger knowledge on dirt bikes than you are.

[@jase1911]

Really would be nice to make the pro's ride a completely stock bike like what we normal people would get

[@ronaldosanotos8248]

Colocar legenda em português Parabéns muito bom o video

[@nicholaspeccarelli4587]

I need those footpeg pivot covers

[@aaronanderson7619]

Beautiful bike, I still think the team green chevy truck 2 strokes are the prettiest. Oh ya, cone pipes and Flo green plastics.

[@caydenthompson126]

That extra chamber on the front of the header is for sound reduction...

[@caydenthompson126]

@Moto3 oneone yessir

[@radtothepowerofsick1]

You would recon that Kawai would listen to some of the changers and mods that these boys do and transition them to there mass production bikes I'm sure some of the little things they do wouldn't be that expensive but would have big ramifications down the line

[@rickeddins302]

diggie smalls like what? It’s essentially a stock bike with rider preferences and bling littered on it. Minus suspension and motor mods.. those are rebuilt every race, which is why they don’t build the motor like that for the public

[@stevematthes4325]

Some people are saying that Savatgy is just a "Fluffer" for Eli Tomac this year. I wonder what they meen by that???????? 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@user-ls4dy9co6v]

สวยมากชอบ ราคาเท่าไรเนีย

[@pablohsu6577]

any idea if they sell these new arc front brake levers yet? they look different then previous models

[@rickeddins302]

Pablo Hsu yes they do it’s called the arc power lever. Or you can get the standard lever for cheaper without the adjustments.

[@TheL8P]

Smart, Very Smart!

[@mrgreen9388]

Very SR

[@1Corinthians151to4]

as a cnc machinist, im going to make your custom brackets for rigidity.

[@jasonsilvers825]

Better pro race pipe 💪

[@darrenjones6965]

Hi do you sell off these bikes at the end of the season . That would look good in my garage.👍

[@mattjones1792]

Better video then Eli’s his mechanic didn’t go that far in depth I like it

[@Mbowman223]

Don't wanna show all the secret perfections on his bike!!😉

[@rakionoys]

i'll take two please

[@swoleturd4271]

You might want to say looking at the "Outside" of Joey Savatgy's bike because I didn't see any internals.

[@904films3]

3 wins the title

[@purebloodheretic4682]

Can Anyone Tell me What the Star Shaped Button on the Front Fork Guards is Used For? Does it Record Front Fork Travel or Something?? -Cheers 👍😉

[@dadocta3627]

duncan wood holeshot starting device... holds front end down until front end dives under braking!

[@purebloodheretic4682]

+Da Docta 👍Cheers Mate! That makes Sense- They Think of Everything These Days! That Would Help Stop Unwanted Wheelies- & Get Full Traction! Thanks for Your Reply👍😉🍺🍻

[@AMM1998]

That thing is a work of art. Anybody else think those graphics are hideous? The pattern looks tacky/cheap and I would've preferred darker plastics over lime green.

[@anakjalanan1582]

Mantap...

[@modsquad8817]

What is the suspension set at?

[@patrickfarrell7598]

Forks are 7 clicks out comp 10 reb. Shock. 10 out comp 10 reb. Oh yeah be sure you purchase factory showa suspension with supwrcross valving! Good luck out there!

[@jase1911]

No radiator braces??

[@keystonerider1308]

Brad Griffith not worth the weight when you can just replace it. At this level esp.

[@bradgriffith6234]

@@keystonerider1308 true. But think about, it can cost you a race or a championship!! Why take that risk?

[@toodanderson351]

If you crash that hard I don't think you would have a race anymore.

[@bradgriffith6234]

@@toodanderson351 Doesn't take much to crush radiators, a simple tip over could do it. I know, have had to replace a few😄

[@Factory928AC]

I paid $10k for a stock bike.... this would make sense to be 10k lol dammit

[@rickeddins302]

A C uhh that bikes worth a lot more than 10k not to mention all the unobtanium parts littered on it.

[@Lord_Internet]

With the added cost of R&D for all the Factory SR parts and all the other R&D for suspension and motors, then id estimate the bike to be worth 150k plus. I mean back in the day around 2004ish Carmichaels Honda was valued at 60,000. 15 years later and id say that its atleast doubled.

[@derricklawson34]

I'll take a set of those plastics u take off every week

How much is this bike worth? 😮

[@simenhanssen]

so it's barely anything from a stock bike? from this video and the racerx video, they almost change the whole bike

[@AMM1998]

Yeah pretty much every part gets touched on factory bikes. They are priceless when you factor in the r&d that goes into the engineering of these machines.

[@rickeddins302]

It’s like a Tailored suit but for motorcycles every little thing is custom tuned for that specific rider

[@shifttube1283]

how come joey dont get the trick front fork and rear shock system that sees how far and how fast each and every stroke the shock makes racing damn that sucks well hes does run diff brand than tomac but if you see tomac's front forks and all the little hoeses and nob's to turn on tomac's also tomack's rear shock is all fuck up chip and shit but that shows ya that the rear shock is old compare to the rest bike what im saying is they def have sum crazy shock's and forks on tomac's

[@guylamson6555]

Who cares about that sooner than he thinks #PRIVATEER #SCRUB

[@kirkwilliams6938]

Can hardly understand a work he says... you've been given great marketing platform here, slow down and speak clearly. Bike is SANO for sure. Hope Joey does well, A1 not so much. He should do good tomorrow. Factory Mechs these days mostly bolt on book off guys. Cool job though.

[@AMM1998]

I understood everything he said man.
