Kove 450 rally uk 🇬🇧 watch how this bike handles 😀

[@Matthew-zw9su]

Heck yeah 😊 Assuming the stars remain aligned, one day soon, a lucky Kove Rally will likewise shred miles with me.

Honestly blown away by this machine we are going to get alot more testing, racing and videos done on this 👌😁

I went on a group off road4 day trip in june in Greece .2 guys had koves,they handled excellent and you can track fast across the terrain without them losing the line.All the wind protection means a smooth ride as well.They are very good machines. And this guy knows how to ride one.😀

@nickg2431 yes totally agree with those comments pal. And thankyou ☺️

@@Kove450rally I was on a modified crf300l with proper suspension.With camel adv bikes i have no problem keeping up or beating them off road if rider is same level as me.With the Kove i could not keep up some of the time.They get very fast average speed across the terrain and corner well .The kove rally 450 will probably be my next bike.

Wow, if you didn't mention UK, I would've thought this was one of the hills here in California.

So it does what every other 450 will do, just slower. And less reliably. 🤡 bike.

[@Kove450rally]

Less reliability ? What's that based on? Not every other 450 can ride 300 miles without fueling and be comfortable. 😊

@@Kove450rally In real world riding, where are you going where you would need 8 gallons of gas? It's impractical and to much extra weight to haul. A DR650 with a 6.6 gal tank will get you 300 miles ish, but even that is stupid. Are you racing in any events that require 300 mile fueling? Are you going to tell me the Kove is reliable....lol. Have fun finding parts, Kove is in turmoil with the founder leaving the company. There riders are signing with other brands also. The good news is, I will be able the get parts for my 450 for 30 years.

[@Kove450rally]

​@jonwoodworker the engine has been in other big named brands for a good few years now and the manufacturer of the engine makes more engines than alot of the big named off road brands. The fuel range is good for touring or adventure riding😊 I will race this in all sorts of events this year and it can do pretty cool stuff. I have raced enduro for many years now on smaller bikes and this puts just as big of a smile on my face as any of the others I've owned 😊

[@jonwoodworker]

@@Kove450rally What other big name brands have used the Kove engine made by Zongshen? There are a couple name brands that use CF Moto to build their stuff, but I'm not aware of any using Zongshen. Not knocking Zongshen, but their successful engines are copies of old Honda engines, mostly.

[@Kove450rally]

​​@jonwoodworker fantic use the same engine but woth sohc on there caballero I believe 😊 reliability doesn't seem to be one of the issues with this engine. Agreed it isn't as powerful as other 450s but power isn't everything depends on the level of rider and the terrain it's being ridden in for sure.
