You pretty much can for around 13k and some change - let's just say 14k after fees, licensing, and state tax. Lol The 2021 CRF450R Works Edition is the sexiest bike you can buy, for sure...well, it is for me personally, anyways! The other (which is my dream bike) would be the TM MX450Fi W/ Double Exhaust, Ohlin's Suspension package, and carbon fiber systems - around 18k said and done, and I've never seen one in person or online - just seen it available on the order form...AND you can choose 5 or 6 spd transmission!!??

From some people I’ve talked to they are right around stock typically, just move the delivery to exactly where the rider wants it with cam and mapping and compression.

[@benstanway3238]

In other videos I've got the impression that the bikes aren't really tuned. They just make the power more manageable. I totally believe that, I've ridden some 450's that have been tuned for power and they are horrible to ride - too aggressive and way more power than is needed.

I believe 223lbs is the minimum they are allowed to be at so I would say close to that. Per AMA rules

[@kirkthepimp1]

I once asked a factory mechanic in the pits and he said its a couple pounds lighter than stock but only because all the extra electronics and sensors add weight 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@sydneyann20101]

I know they get new pads fresh clutch and rubber every time they hit the track but after every event do the mechanics go as far as rebuild the calipers and master cylinders with new internals? I know the engine gets tore down & rebuilt & they basically have a new bike at every race but didn't know about the brakes

[@liamdungey9119]

I rebuild the brakes with new piston and seals 1/2 through sx and same goes for out doors. But ever race i service the calipers and master cylinders and put new brake pads on too

Don't hold me to it but I believe that is what I have heard but if someone knows please chime in.

Except they do. All these fancy graphics kits as well as the swingarm kits add a little bit of weight. Next time your order a FULL graphics kit, take that shit out of the box and hold it in your hands. The epoxy that bonds the graphics to the plastics and metal on the stantions and swingarm weighs a shit ton. Do your research.

Yes if you go add up and weigh a complete dirt bike graphic kit that is sold on the market, it can add up to 2-3 pounds. Sounds crazy but those are the facts.
