A lot of people say you can't do Mountain with a 450, really its just more clutch work to keep it moving. Still a blast to run though!

Never got that memo 450= no mountain… lol. Love my Sx450 in norther BC rocky hill sand hill climb ‘‘em all not going to lie it is a challenge but why else ride.

Motorcycle experiences are so relative. Ten+ years ago, I too, ran lots of mountain single track. I moved from the Nevada desert to the SoCal mountains, bringing my Big Red Pig Honda XR650R (the water cooled Baja bike). After a year or so of riding mountain trails, I traded it in on a shiny new CRF450X. And it was amazing to me how light and nimble the 450X felt. I’ve never ridden a 250 4 stroke, so I have no basis for comparison there. From my perspective, 450’s make excellent technical trail bikes that don’t wear you out. I’ll have to try a 250F someday, just to see what all the hoopla’s about.

Just picked up the Sherco SEF450 Factory. Loved my Beta390 but couldn't find a new one. Loved the SEF300 Factory as well, but missed the torque for my size. First real rides this weekend. Being a clydesdale plus rider, the 450 seems good but certainly not close to the nimbleness of the other 2 bikes I mentioned. Gearing seems spot on and the KYB's are magic. Can't wait but I'm a little worried about it wearing me out. It's surprisingly light (lighter than my 16 390 for sure). Can't wait to get it out.

Good stuff! I love CRF's, I rode my uncorked crf450L with an enduro tune on technical single track today and loved it. Definitely need to lower the grearing though. A lot of high revs in first because second gear was to high.

Is this one of the liberal things i just need to get used to because it's 2022 or whatever year, ...should i stop watching dirtbike channel videos and watch something girly. I don't want to add to the men % and make you have to feel like its bad.
