Trail Riding at 250r Takeover 2025
Просмотров 72728 дней назад
For a second year, I was able to bring my hybrid to play in the dunes at Little Sahara State Park in Waynoka, Oklahoma. The weather was perfect, and the sand was a little rough, but we made the most of it and got some awesome writing in. One of my GoPro batteries died on the second day and my buddy experienced a mechanical failure so there wasn’t much footage that I got that day.
A Lap Around Durmamtown MX6 Track

I was able to drive 13 hours from Dallas, to visit one of my favorite childhood riding spots in Union Point, Georgia. Durhamtown Off Road Resort has over 4,000 acres of groomed one way trails, motorcross tracks, SXS tracks, hill climbs, and much more! I didn’t record a whole lot the first day as my GoPro battery died within 15 minutes…but we knocked everything out The second day we were able to...
Got Bored So I Started Painting
Просмотров 31811 месяцев назад
Have some downtime waiting for parts and fighting wet weather. Figure I’d knock out a quick little paint job on the valve cover. Used regular primer paint and then high temp engine gloss black paint with a satin clear coat. Sprayed 2 coats of each with a total of about 24 hours drying time. Hope y’all are killing it out there and riding safe 🤘🏼 Music by
KFX CRF Hybrid Cold Start and RP Exhaust Raw Idle
Просмотров 2,9 тыс.Год назад
Been busy juggling life lately but finally got the quad back with a custom header and midpipe mated with a brand new, RP Race CRF pro muffler. We opted to make a longer running header for more torque and I was able to rip it around a field today and it pulls wheelies through 3rd gear. I threw this little edit together quickly to give y’all something so I hope you enjoy. Ride safe fam 🤘🏼

Kawasaki KFX450r Carburetor Conversion
Sick man i wished i had a 450cc qaud well i have a quad its a 2020 KYMCO MXU150X and very loud its really fun tho and im actually getting my very first dirt bike on march 1 im so excited also im from the Philippines but im american also the bike im getting is a 2025 Kawasaki KLX 150X dual sport its very nice and my kymco atv is very reliable
What’s your instagram
so on the swingarm you had to put honda axle and carrier? and caliper mount? and i saw you had a video with carb conversion but this one has efi? whats the deal with a carb swap?
Yeah this swingarm utilizes a trx rear end, which is narrower at the carrier and allows the crf motor easier alignment. As for the carb swap I abandoned that after the KFX motor just underperforms overall. I’ve got a 2009 Honda crf450r efi motor in it now and have had 0 issues.
Awesome
Where are the mounts from ?
Custom from a local fab buddy
Same track I flipped my Kfx on
I flipped my kfx 400 years ago on it, and saw another guy roll his quad while I was there haha!
Hall Maria Anderson Daniel Gonzalez Mark
how do i make my kfx450r a kicker? can i just get the kick parts from a kx450f?
There are actual kfx 450 kicker parts straight from Kawasaki. Have to be on the lookout from eBay
Where can you get the shock reservoir mount also is that also a rp intake?
It has an FCI intake, and the shock mount is from Fox.
@@KFX_JD did the mount come with the shock?
How much meth did you smoke before you started that swap??
Still say this is one of the coolest kfxs ever!!!!
Hey where did you get you graphics kit from
These are graphics from when I bought the quad, Senge graphics I believe? I didn’t make them or anything.
How in the heck did you adjust the idle from there
I pulled the high idle knob out prior to starting it, then pushed it in when it got warmer.
Do you have to pay be allowed to access the trails on the park?
Yes, when open it is $30 per rider.
Did you put carburetor on it. How? 😎
This is a CRF conversion. I have older videos with a carburetor on it.
#savesportquads
Do you have any video of how you did the conversion?
My KFX 450 build breakdown ruclips.net/video/-pLaDbdVhbw/видео.html This video is a full breakdown of everything I had done to it as carb swapped. There are a ton of guys who have done them now and can help explain in the Facebook groups or old forum posts surprisingly.
Is fuel pump still needed?
No it is not! I made a custom gas tank plate with a petcock that replaced the fuel pump.
What did you think of this place!! Seems like a killer place from the pics n videos I’ve seen
This place was incredible man! So many groomed one-way trails and tracks it kept us busy for 2 days straight
@@KFX_JD definitely need to stay when ya go then huh !!
how often do you go out there? i love that place
With work/weather schedule I’ve only been able to get there once a month or so. It’s a decent place to get some seat time.
@@KFX_JD yea but its been raining every week recently so that sucks
Hello I am about give the carburetor a try over the fuel injection it is a 2014 kfx450. I have a 2007 crf450r laying around the shop what main and pilot would you recommend. It has a weisco pison 10 4 1, trinity ported /polished head ,kibble white valves,springs and retainers,hot cams stage 2 cams.
175 main, 45 pilot, 2.25 turns out on your fuel screw
@@KFX_JD okay thank you i will give it a try
What all did you have to do as far as wiring and whatnot for the carb? Is it as easy as just throw the carb on and run or do you have to mess with the computer and wiring to get it to the running stage?
The only wiring I needed was the temperature sensor, and ground wire. I eventually deleted all fuel injection wiring. You can run stock ECU just fine without the other things being plugged in 👍🏼
1 on the left is insane
Loookin meannnnn💯
Thanks man! 🤘🏼
Does the CRF carburetor fit perfectly or do you have to make an adaptation? together with the original air system
I muscled the crf intake boot onto the kfx head, but a kx 450 intake boot works perfect for both the crf carb and kfx head. The intake tube and FCI fit perfectly to the carburetor without any adjustment.
why do you have a kick start on a kfx450???
There is a Kawasaki oem kick start for the KFX 450 engine. I have a CRF 450 kick start motor in it though.
i beg to differ!
Are you feeling ok? The biggest waste of time and money, I'm confused? Why you would do this to that poor beautiful kawasaki 😔 tainted with a honda motor?????
I appreciate the feedback and noticed your comments have been nothing but negative on 2 of my videos now. However you ride, ride safe 🤙🏼
Buy a Yamaha you won't be doing this hybrid crap wtf😂 why???
A higher hp motor than a stock kfx or yfz motor. Also this crf motor is 30lbs lighter than any atv 450 motor. Hybrid’s have been around for years
What all did you delete in the wire harness for the carb conversion? Is there's anything you have to bypass or anything like that. Im currently doing a carb conversion on my kfx and having issues with getting it running. I already have a procom ecu
I deleted everything with the fuel injection. TPS sensor, intake temp sensor, neutral and reverse sensors (less wiring), and inlet air pressure sensor. I only had the fan, coolant temp sensor, frame ground, and coil going past the handlebars.
Graphics or no graphics it’s a beautiful machine either way!
Thanks! I jus couldn’t get away from the all-black look
I don't understand why you want to go backwards what's wrong with fuel injection?
I had spent close to $1300 replacing items related to the electronics and fuel injection and never got the fuel situation sorted. This is a very common issue with the kfx and several other people have done the same. The FCR carb actually was more powerful at the low end range and gave me 0 issues for the months I ran it at the track.
Because fuel injection sucks and carbs are simple but yet reliable! Mine also maybe more power with a carb
why not kx motor?
This def swap has been done in the past. And up until the efi years the kx has not changed and are very low on hp compared to other 450’s. CRF’s also have a lot more aftermarket support
Bike looks amazing with no graphics super clean!! And it sounded amazing with the dasa what made you change pipes??
Thanks man! I wanted to change things up and run an RP Race exhaust but unfortunately they don’t make a KFX exhaust anymore.
Where did you get the plastics? Been looking to change the look of mine.
Sourced them from the OEM sections in rockymountainatvmc.com and motosport.com. Had to look through different years to be able to piece the all black together.
Are you not worried about the air filter being so exposed? Real nice though, those 2009 crf engines are strong motors Much respect from the uk
Nah this is a motorcross quad, the outerwear cover is waterproof and this thing will never see a mud bog in its life.
Have you rode Suzuki LTR’s ? It’s bad ass :D
Yes I have, I’ve ridden several and a Walsh CRF/LTR hybrid. Great machines which are almost identical to these KFX’s.
This thing is pretty cool. Did you use the crf motor because it is better than a kx or did you have one just hanging around?
Common swap with this year CRF. Also more reliable motor especially for the year.
A few things about it I don’t understand. Still pretty cool tho
What’s confusing?
What year is the motor?
2009 crf 450
@@KFX_JD ever thought of putting a newer one in?
@@justinmochi7323 this swap has been done in the past with no major modifications needed. New crf have a very steep intake runner for the head which interferes with the shock mount. All other newer e-start motors need major frame modification
Hybrid as in electric motor drive?
No….dirtbike motor in an atv.
@KFX_JD OH I thought they were making the engine with a hybrid motor, I was gonna be mad for a second, but sick atv
Just bought one for my son. It’s a basket case at the moment but will be brought back to life soon! Beautiful Kfx450r build!
Thanks man! They’re great quads a fun 450. Awesome all around wheeler and a beast in the woods when setup real well.
Glad your ok.
Thanks man, so am I. Glad I was able to ride the rest of the weekend through the pain.
Man that’s a badass kfx!
Thanks man! 👍🏼
@@KFX_JD you guys gonna make it to the dunes again this year?
@@Stubbz33 I don’t have any plans for this year due to work and vacations, looking at early next year.
@@KFX_JD we’re gonna try the weekend before Easter if y’all can get free
Bro, that thing is pretty nice but if you can upgrade from a 250r two 700 R will be pretty good for you. Thanks for the good vid
Appreciate the comment, but those are 2 different quads and that is not what I own or rode lol
We talk to you n a couple of guys with ya n that thing was a pretty sweet build
Thanks man, Heath correct?
@@KFX_JD yes sir!!
You know if they’re open during the week? I’m in the Austin area and it seems like most places are open weekend only..
Their Facebook page “Trophy Club Park” updates you when they are closed and reopened due to weather. When it is too wet or has lingering water they shut things down.
@@KFX_JDthanks, you know of any other places open mon-Friday up there or central Texas?
@@snowboard20356 man I do not, I know the Sam Houston forest is open all the time but the trails are very tight if you don’t know where you’re going. Most MX tracks are weekends only
Awesome, thank you for the intel. It’s different down here with the riding areas. In Colorado you just purchase an orv sticker and can go anywhere anytime.
@@KFX_JDwhere is the best spots to ride up that way?
What jetting u running
175 main, 45 pilot, fuel screw 2.25 turns out, NCVQ needle on middle clip.
What gearing are you actually running
Ended up with 13t front and a 40t rear. Able to ride around 3rd gear very comfortably. I feel like a 41 rear may be slightly better but current setup is prime.
What year for the 450 CRF ? 😊
2009 - custom engine mounts, header, and then extended/modified wiring
