Kymco MXU450i Review

[@MrComputerguy2010]

i have a 2021 Kymco mxu 450i love it paid $5573.00 out the door great machine . and it is fast

[@keithlynch3086]

Love our Mongoose 90 and MXU 270 but you got a great deal on a good machine. MXU 550 EPS is probably next for us.

[@gregorymandile2321]

the kymco 450 is the best machine in that class

[@gregorymandile2321]

just bought a brand new kymco 450.love it

[@protectork9831]

How much

[@mikemoore466]

That hesitation was the damn rev limiter so you don't blow the engine up by holding it wide open in neutral.

[@TerraFirmaX]

lol, yep

[@Benedehh]

4 years after this post. I’m looking for a hunting rig. How’s the reliability of it now that you’ve put more hours on it? Battery placement sucks, but all else? Thanks in advance

[@protectork9831]

Thanks for this video . I really appreciate it

[@shotgunz124]

Just put 25 in tires on it And it’s done The newer king quads have 2 in receiver and 500 and 750 have independent I have a Kymco 300 mongoose it’s a good quad plastic is better than my Suzuki The Kymco just need work on shock valve settings and soften them up That is my only complaint If u change them to a better shock it helps a lot

[@gregorymandile2321]

the kawi 300 is a kymco made by kymco for kawi

[@kb6069]

I am looing at getting a new bike, do you still like the Kymco 450? I am attracted to it because of its narrow stance and locking Diff, do you still recommend it? Have you had any problems with it? Any impute is very welcome. Thanks!!

[@CedarOutpost]

I still like it. Has a lot of power. I wish the steering were easier. A visitor just rolled it and the parts are reasonably priced.

[@kb6069]

@@CedarOutpost thanks man, I needed to hear that; did your bike come with a locking Diff?

[@billholland9366]

First, i hope you put the oil cap/dip stick back in before ya started and rev'd the crap out of it.... Second, no reason to hold the throttle open like that, it's called static reving, good way to float a valve or just abuse an engine in general...

[@Mike-hh6ib]

15years on a farm the yamaha hydraulic brakes would last 6 months(one good panic squezz) at the time on the front of the Bruin 350 where as the the cable brakes would last maybe a year be services but they too eventually became unrepairable .....now everybody on the farm drives the quad sensibly as there is no brakes just the cvt and cuttting the engine

[@olegzaretski6977]

Hi, any updates on the kymco? Whats the mileage on it now? Was looking to pick up a 2020 but dont know much about the brand.

[@CedarOutpost]

Don't know the milage but no problems. Only thing I had to do was replace battery which is in a strange location and not easy to access.

[@Keepingitreal98]

So how do you like your Kymco now? Does it have power steering

[@CedarOutpost]

No PS. It does not steer as easily as the Suzuki. It seems better after I stiffened the shocks. The battery compartment is above the right rear tire--crazy inconvenient.

[@Keepingitreal98]

Have you played with the governor screw? I don't know much about quads in general but would opening it up make it faster? I use ours for our mini farm and it does good up in the mountains trail riding.

[@CedarOutpost]

@@Keepingitreal98 I have not looked at adjusting the governor. I did use the screw on the throttle to slow it down. It was crazy fast and it's primarily for my kids.

[@dan43213]

ZOOM OUT!!!! DAMN!!!

[@mikesenko1]

well its been six months what have you found that you like and dislike about the mxu 450?

[@CedarOutpost]

Steering is not great in corners. Otherwise, I still like it.

[@mikesenko1]

@@CedarOutpost what is it about the steering you do not like?

[@CedarOutpost]

@@mikesenko1 It takes more effort to steer compared to the Suzuki.

[@protectork9831]

I missed a deal of lifetime Suzuki king quad 400 with 50 miles extended warranty for 5k

[@borismcgillicutty3042]

Ok does kawasaki use kymco engines or what?

[@CedarOutpost]

Only in the 300 as I understand it.

[@wendyjamison1850]

@@CedarOutpost Kawasaki, Yamaha, Arctic Cat, Honda, and Tracker Offroad all use Kymco engines on some of their vehicles.

[@supermaga5351]

Any idea what the top speed is on it? I am looking at picking one up this weekend.

[@ExploringCabinsandMines]

about 110 mph

[@supermaga5351]

@@ExploringCabinsandMines, perfect thank you. Sounds real fast...

[@Etruscan70]

I hit 62 mph on mine.

[@elijah973]

Dang I’m sad cause they out of stock right now

[@andrewsomers1909]

I cringed when the poor bikes were pointlessly revving their guts out, governed right out, couple of light shots of gas would of been sufficient

[@WeSRT4]

Apparently he has no mechanical knowledge at all

[@gregorymandile2321]

never red line an atv like that,i can't believe u did that

[@TerraFirmaX]

[@dan43213]
