Supposedly only selling 500 of these 50th anniversary editions in the USA. I'm getting one. All confirmed shipping thus week or next. I was also at the dealer in March bugging them about the 23s
@@lifeonthehill9977 I just bought a yamaha so I'm out of the new bike game for a bit but this is the best looking bike I have seen in a while. Congrats dude, gonna be a good day when you load that up in the truck
@@straightnobraker4677Thanks. talked to dealer and it's not going to be here till after labor day. He said it could move up sooner but I doubt it. How's the Yamaha?
Well done and thank you. I'm an older heavier B class MXer currently with a 2004 CRF450R - bit by the bug again. Currently hung up on the 2022 CRF450RWE vs. the 2023 CRF450R. Both are ready and availalbe for pickup from dealers within my driving radius (the 2022 WE is 108 miles away and the 2023 R is much closer just 30 minutes away). I don't need the WE and wouldn't come close pushing it to it's max potential competition wise but it's so beautiful (I've never had titanium nitride coated forks and these look so sick!) and it could be the last MXer I buy. We'll see where and how far this chapter takes me.
It took me 4 dealerships to get my hands on this bike. 1 sold it before I got there, 2 of them didn’t wanted to sell and the 4 one had one but it was “reserved “ I had to basically beg for them to go ahead and sell it 🥹 I’m a 2 stroke bike rider “93 CR 250” but this bike touched me
Okay maybe I'm not understanding but I don't know how anybody couldn't be a Honda fan now he might just be talking about Honda you know motorcycle racing but let's face it Honda makes some of the best engineered machines in the world from their cars to even a lawn mower that's got a Honda motor on it if you take care of it you have that Honda motor forever and then of course you got the four wheels and you got the motorcycles and you got a lot of other stuff so I don't know anybody can't be a Honda fan it just depends on what you might be talking about by being a Honda or not Honda fan cuz they make the best engines in the world and almost anything or I'd say anything that they put an engine in is a good motor and it'll run you 300,500,000 miles if you take care of it but he could have been just talking about race bikes more than likely that's what he was talking about is just race bikes
I'm 100% Honda guy, I own a civic si , accord ,ruckus crf 50 crf 110, getting a 250 rx this summer and a honda snowblower but in the atv its yamaha all the way.
I feel like bikes never make any forward progress anymore. The last like 5 years everytime the new next year stuff starts coming out everything is the same
Yep. I agree. This bike is no better than the last "new" bike I bought over 10 years ago. Frankly, I liked my '06 the best. I see no real improvements over that bike.
this is the best cr450r ever built.. stop bashing the bike.. first off you a either to fat like that guy talking or to thin like the other guy.. none of these guys will ever win a championship ANYWHERE so dont listen to these guys ever.. BUY A HONDA 250 OR 450!!! its really that simple
I don't see how this bike - stock - is any better than one of my stock bikes from 15 years ago. And my race bike was WAY better than this one. Not even close. I would not want to pay this much for a stock bike that hasn't really improved in 15 years. Nope.

Picked mine up today can’t wait to try it out
Good review guys. Bike sure looks pretty.
Cant wait for the WE review Keefer!
Gosh that thing looks gorgeous 🤟
These new colors should be standard across the CRF range 🤩🙏
they focused not the colours and screwed the chassis_ too soft it seems......

The best bike for sure! 💯💯💯😎
It’s a nice bike but I’d still rather have the new KX450 monster energy edition
Top of the MX bikes Food Chain 👍
Here's a blank check please load this up immediately.
Need it
GASGAS makes the best looking bikes. I do like the gold rims though. The blue seat kind of takes away from the rest of the bike to me. Great video!
gasgas is brand and dont make any bike. It is a Pierer AG what make bikes.
@@aivorebane3050 pierer ag is a group. I fully understand. GASGAS is the best looking out of all their brands. KTM is a close second.
I guess the best you can say about this bike is that they didn't make it worse this year.
Bold new graphics

@Duke Bonde probably but you have to rebuild race bikes every now and then. Dont worry ill get a Yamaha two stroke e eventually

so approximately 3 minutes of riding versus 20 minutes of talking?
Can't wait for mine. Supposed to ship this week or next. Going to call tomorrow and check in.

lolol - Well, there it is! The expert pro moto guy has spoken. LOL
"Old School" likes med or hard full waffle Kris. You're middle school. :-)
Sounds like to me these guys aren’t pro racers. Their weekend warriors who aren’t ready for a faster rigid bike

Ahhh yes....the "Honda Death Twitch" on straight aways....no thanks.
That guy wants the 450 to be even more boring lmao
They spring these bikes for fat Americans nowadays. His weight at 150 was far too light for the stock springs.
bike sucks: buy a Yamaha.
