John T Young’s 19’ Honda CRF450L at the 21 Touratech Rally

[@JohnTYoung]

Thank you so much Mike, not just for the kind words and support, but for being a great human. Let’s do the NVBDR together when our stars line up.

He is the reason I decided on getting my 450L

[@maxpowers13]

John's CRF build is the reason I'm searching for a 450RL right now. Honda should pay the man a commission for all the 450s he's sold. Thanks for posting this video!

[@jdavishornet]

John helped me a lot. And probably every person who has an online presence and who bought a crf450rl had some type of aid from John. Honda should hire John. No question.

i brought my crf450l because of JOHN

[@lukken4020]

I'm basing my 2021 CRF450RL build on this guy's one. It's one bad ass build.

[@fynn8252]

John is a very down to earth guy! Thanks for sharing this.

[@stoplogicmotorsports]

Untapped market a 450 rally production would own!

[@TACOMOTOCO]

Until then we make our own

Nice. I'm not a Honda guy but love John's insight on the lite weight Adv.

[@JamesLG4]

There is the Rally Moto Shop Sonora Rally Tower. Maybe not quite as much wind protection as the Rebel X but that might be a benefit to some people. Also nice that the RMS uses a stock Africa Twin windshield I think, easily replaced if broken.

[@stevenbernier4206]

I live a mile from there. Too bad the weather really went south for the weekend. But it did make for some awesome trail riding on Monday. If your up here next year LMK and I will show you around the hood.

That Harley looks sick

[@brianpearson5215]

How would u rate the 450l up against the ktm or husky 500s as far as longevity vs performance ....... ?

[@thehoelzels6316]

How is he handling the short oil change and valve adjustment intervals? It seems like 600 mile oil service interval isn't practical for an ADV motorcycle

[@JohnTYoung]

I usually run them out to 1000 or 1200 miles. If I am going farther than that I carry an oil change with me in a collapsable bottle. Take 10 Minutes. I drop the used oil off a a garage or a dealership.

[@DavidJones-pc4ft]

Nice. What fairing is that on the CRF450L?

[@sachac5435]

good vid but twitchy suspension???

[@JohnTYoung]

It is a dirt bike so the steering angle is a bit steep and the wheel base is short. Twitchy.
