Motocross Action's 2024 250 Shootout

[@pieterdejong150]

It’s always about performance, never about maintenance, easy to work on, reliability, costs of parts, cleaning etc. For the weekend warriors, way more important than hp.

100% agreed! I’m more worried about value, maintenance, and longevity/reliability rather than tune maps, peak hp, and other insignificant features. There is a $3000 cost differential between the Suzuki and the Husky!!!

All these brands make nice bikes.

Couldn't agree more. I only ride once or twice a month if that and I absolutely love my RMZ. Awesome price for a bike for truthfully any level of rider. The kickstart tends to not bother me as much personally, it gives me more of a nostalgic feeling like being back on my 01' CR250

No mention about the value proposition that Suzuki offers. It’s a great bike for those who are weekend warriors.

I’d rather have that then peaky high rpm that will be harder on engine components.

This is very very false and another scapegoat answer for the other manufacturers. They have posted extended videos, explaining that. Yes there are other bikes that you can add for example, a sprocket to or a pipe, too, or some thing and it can become better, if you ride, you should know better and should know that any bike is great. As long as you have a positive perception of your bike get the set up right and believe that the equipment under you is Good enough to do the job at hand and you are willing to work on your own form and abilities. This is a test for stock 100,000,000% stock, and right off the showroom floor. There is no doubt that the Austrian bikes have more race parts are more reliable and are a better option if you are willing to pay the price tag, which is not very significant difference these days as the other brands have increased their pricing. People need to get over themselves and stop hating on some thing because they don’t like it or can’t afford it.

Goes to show differing opinions. I personally think the Suzuki is the best bike all round. Plenty of power and it’s low and medium power is great so you can ride it in any setting or any track. Not sure why they say it has a ‘lack of power’ you can hardly tell unless you’re a pro ringing their neck for every bit of power. Yes, I’d like e-start and I hope they implement it soon but that’s it. Every single bike you have to mess with suspension to make it good for the individual riding. But imo the forks aren’t even half as stiff as they are made out to be and I’m not heavy, I’m only around 170lbs at 5’11. The CRF is a great bike as well. Crazy they are last and second to last, I’d put the zookie first and CRF second. My mate has the KTM and it’s not great imo, I’d have the Suzuki all day compared to his KTM.

They will twist it. A few years back honda had most power and to this day killer handling. And the cried too much power.

[@HPRaceDevelopment]

KX has a stiff fork - just because it's kyb doesn't mean the "setting" is desireable. Kawasaki decides what valving combo the bike comes with. Additionally - the chassis plays a big role in felt stiffness - the kx gives more feedback than the yamaha chassis does - in exchange for what I feel is better trust of the stability. I think if they did a "mod bike" shootout - with say 5k budget - it could be really interesting. Pipe, clamps, suspension and some minor motor work would be about that budget. All the bikes would get a lot closer as the slower ones respond bigger to work than the faster ones.

So I can just ride and enjoy the features without instantly buying mods. Only mod I need is a skid plate and I’m off. Appreciate this content. And super exited to have my first lifetime brand new bike. Wasn’t blessed with hand me down money or an east road to paychecks. So this is a big purchase for me at this point in my life.

Team orange! The 2023 redesign was great - didn't expect major changes for 2024.

[@houjous5131]

Do you know why ktm & friends seem to have no riders in mx/sx right now?

[@vonlitto]

Pretty wild how far these 250fs have come since 2010. Stock kawi 250 in 10 was 10hp slower peaking at 34-35hp.

[@bradthackston5217]

What about the triumph? It’s running super cross this year isn’t it?

[@jamessherrill6934]

If you are comparing all bikes as a package how is a KTM brand ranked so high with an air fork. Every KTM forum online they are always talking about swapping forks. I’ve never seen that desire to swap forks on a new bike on a Japanese brand.

[@yukonjon5964]

yep. just when they finally give us shock linkage back, they go to air forks.

[@brickluck]

So when we gunna replay this with triumph and Ducati?

[@Daveeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

I can’t help but feel this is biased.

[@pressinpickle345]

Suzuki is the best

Been a MXA subscriber since 1985 and the last 4-5 years they have been a joke.

[@leadhead7338]

LOL.. again, with the stripped out bolts… LOL what a Joke, I’ve never once stripped any bolts on any of my 4 Kawis, I think you guys need to learn how to tighten a bolt!

The 2023 and the 2024 KX 250 are the same bike but last year it had 44.66hp this year 45.11 hp ?

[@Huckabuck2]

Probably just a difference in dyno consistency

[@the-LeoKnightus]

Note the same. Different valve angles and tuning.

I like the later in the year reviews the first reviews of y’all’s seem to only stand and go off of what’s on paper. You can predict the same lineup from worst to best the last 3 yrs lol kinda like the whole “ktm action” people have called y’all for years haha
