Groovy paint scheme. Yeah Baby !!
Very nice bike. Appreciate you posting what works and what doesn't, a great resource! We just got snowed out down in Baja, rode about 30 miles in snow 1-12" deep, and had to turn around. A bit surprising!
as a '23 450 xcf-w owner, i love these videos and hope you keep developing the bike. thank you!
Thank YOU
Thanks for the video. I think I'll go with the bulletproof designs rear disk guard for the rear and the STR for the front.
You need to put the left side foot peg pin in upside down so that it doesn’t contact the screw on the kickstand when the kickstand is down. That is what makes the screw get ripped out of the kickstand and then you loose the hardware and springs.
Love your bike. 👌🏼 Only things I’d change is the rainbow graphics and swap to IMS tank.
Crazy with all the upgrades in this bike still 30+ lb lighter, then my drz400e can't wait to upgrade
I like the Austin Powers inspired graphics Need them for the Honda
We can make that happen
Bad ass bike
Nice set-up! Glad you guys are doing the oil change interval testing. I suspected that the factory recommendations were a bit silly. Depends on how hard you push it but I feel if you're using a high grade oil like Motorex it should hold up fine for much longer than the manual suggests. Cheers
With our oil filter, a pc racing filter skin and base gasket, maxima pro plus oil, riding dual sport conditions oil testing shows 60 hour changes are safe and reasonable
MPG? I sold my 500 exc last year. I'm looking at a lighter woods/s Cal desert bike (ya, I know). The 450 W looks just about right. I'm really liking your videos and straight forward advice. When I begin the Mods on my new bike, I will shop TACO.
Drive sprocket mods?
Love u stuff Mike
Keep up the good work
Yes we upgraded the rear sprocket
@@TACOMOTOCO didn’t I see front sprocket mod as well?
BTW - what gearing/teeth front and back?
Taco, I'm getting back into trails/scrambles after a few years. I last rode the 525 Exc-f. I'm wondering if there's a way to temporarily soften the 450s delivery until I get my legs back?
-Stock map switch?
-Throttle tube product?
-Aftermarket mapping?
All 350 platforms seem to prefer more revs. Your description of power delivery on the '23 seems almost moto-like, and that's a bit intimidating. But I love the XCF-W platform. Thanks from MN for any response.
Do you like this more than the 300xcw? Considering the 450 for the Florida sand and whoops. We have some tight stuff as well
I love this shit
I'm a fan of all your products...but not the color palette/graphics package on this bike.
Thanks for liking us even when we push the limits
Yah, I’m not digging the rainbow 🌈 stuff, but I do love all the other products.
KTM offers a "full system open exhaust" map that's available from your dealer. I'm intrested to hear how it performs over stock and compared to the GET or Vortex.
We back to back rode a bike w oem setup and our GET and every test rider picked the GET bike every time
@@TACOMOTOCO It would be interesting to see the data between KTM's optional map that's available from the dealer for a full system exhaust against the GET.
I was talking with Randy C on the bike and he mentioned this video was coming out after the trip! Great update video, the level of detail you go into is much appreciated. I already have a lot of these same parts on my new 23 450xcfw, however going a bit different route considering my area is in the midwest. Do you have any plans to test a FMF 4.1 system?
4.1 is great on it
@@TACOMOTOCO hard to see from the video, did you do anything with the 2 pin “dummy plug” that’s under the airbox from factory (such as removing it)? My guess is this has to do with the emissions system on the EXC’s..
Where did you get the square plug for the hole in the frame for the fuel vent?
Sweet bike Mike, another awesome build. Quick question, isn’t that the 3.9 gallon tank? If so the 3.1 would actually save about 6 pounds which is incredible for all the goodies on this one.
Mis spoke
3.9g / 15l
Which tidy tail fits the 450xcf-w? The description on the website only shows fitment for the exc.
When is tacomoto going to make a kickstand. Ive broke a few stock and a Fastway one. Haven't tried the Trailtech or Swiftkicker yet...
Try a swift kicker and see what you think. So far so good w ours
I have the exact same bike! My 5th and 6th gear seem to loose power..wondering what gear ratio are you using? Mine came 13:52
Does that mudguard wear on the swingarm lower shock mount like the stock one?
No
Which Michelin works well for dirt and street?
I didn't know the Partridge family had a motorcycle.
Would this be the competitor to SCORE races over the 450x ?
Thinking about picking up one of these bikes, so enjoy seeing all the mods/upgrades you are doing.
The main question I have is how does the 450 stock tune and engine characteristic compare to the 500 once uncorked?
Coming off four 300 KTM 2 strokes dating from 2016 to 2021. See any issues with this replacing the 2T's once I get used to the difference?
Want to be able to use it for technical southern utah riding and multi-day long mountain singletrack.
Will flameouts make me regret the 4T, or are they pretty much non existent on this model?
450’s have more snap, punch and aggressive acceleration than a 500
@TACO MOTO CO ... thanks, makes sense. For the slow, techy riding don't see too many guys on 500's with recluse, will the 450 xcf-w be okay without or due to less tractor like low end, maybe need to add recluse to prevent flameouts?
@@mikehassler713 I hard enduro my 500 all the time
It’s prob the better bike for it vs the 450
A 350 is prob better suited though than either
Rekluse for the win on any bike
Is this yoshi better than the fmf header?
What’s up with the blue wire management mount?I was designing my own and saw this . 2021 fe 501s. Do you make it?

Are the parts on this bike compatible with the Husqvarne Fe 450, noob question I know 😅
Why the 450 instead of just using a 500? What’s the difference between them?
It looks like you're running the 3.9 gallon (15L) tank and not the 3.1.
We're interested in MPG in Baja with the new ECU vs stock? I'm guessing stock should be around 45 mpg?
Also interested in what power gains are to be had over the stock tune?
Yes. Misspoke
This is the 15l tank
@@TACOMOTOCO what can you report on the Taco tuned ECU versus stock?
@@Eldon95084 the report is that it’s better in all rpm settings in every condition
Will the "Mother of All" oil filters make their way to other bike brands like Yamaha and Honda?
Yes
Is it possible for me just to drop my bike off to you to put all that on ?
Looks jammy as..
heavier disc is better than broke down, you would never feel the weight difference JMO
Sweet build. But that engine won’t last long without a filter. Aluminum and copper are not magnetic
tacomoto.co/products/akt-2-0-oil-filter?ToPasteboard
Oil filtration science is a thing
@@TACOMOTOCO ok after reading the article it’s states that the way it attaches non magnetic particles is by it getting attached to the magnetic particles. But in an engine bathed in moving oil that’s just not going to happen 🤷🏼 simply physics will never have copper and aluminum attach to steel. If you guys applied this as an additional coverage like in a drain plug or paper filter cap I’d be all game. Win win
Oil sample data and ongoing oil testing says otherwise
Chad Sexton? You mean Chase right lol😂
