Kawasaki KX450 Testing at Washougal MX Park

[@troyhubbard50]

I own a 2023 and I finally rode my buddy's 24 at Glen Helen Thursday. No joke, the biggest difference I noticed was the front brake! The Brembo system is awesome, obviously. The 24 falls into ruts a bit easier too. I'm sure if I bought one I could get super comfy on it. But for now I'm really happy with my 23. Kawi really outdid themselves with both bikes. I would say they are leading the class as far as chassis feel and comfort when the track gets rough.

I agree, you nailed it. The complete 24' Brembo front assembly is a direct fit on your 23' as well - Just saying!

@@CasMoto That's cool I didn't know that. I'll probably just ride my 23 for another year then grab a 25.

I’ve been on husky for about 5 seasons, this year I grabbed a 24 kawi 450 because my local dealer got me out the door at 7600 on one.. and I do not regret the color change. I instantly felt comfy soon as I pulled on the track with it I had zero time getting used to a new chassis. I’m a green believer for sure and the fact is was about 4500 dollars cheaper than a FC is even better

Yeah buddy! Love hearing these stories from new owners. Cheers

No Horsepower Hill on that circuit? Is that different from the AMA course?

[@MotoRacerGC]

He goes up Horsepower Hill at 1:00. Looks small on camera lol

[@AOL0321]

@@MotoRacerGC Yes, thanks. This course is my favorite. I always loved watching the battle between Villopoto and Dungey on this track. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn-TkqStrrJ0gM0si=TEJCJO1WfDn_RNpd

I’d still rather listen to two strokes.

My wife won’t let me ride anymore.
