Here’s my review on my kfx, not too much of a powerhouse stock but they are incredibly light and maneuverable and they love to fly! I did some motor work and performance mods (490 Big Bore, 12.5.1 CP Piston, kx450f intake cam, mild port job, full dasa exhaust, k&n intake and filter, power commander FC.) Thing absolutely rips! Best of both worlds, makes insane power and has that classic kfx light feel to it! Love the thing to death!
First mod for any KFX…”L” brackets on those crappy front fenders!!!!!! Drag race is a bad idea but I’d like to see some time trials through a loop in the woods. Everybody thinks I’m crazy but I love the KFX for the type of riding we do.
I feel ya Brian! I love the handling of it and I actually think it’s plenty fast for the trails, doesn’t feel slow. But an update on this machine is coming next week! I’ll send ya pic on Instagram!
Yeah the kfx is definitely more of a woods and weekenders type of bike not a racer unless you do the intake mod and tune it but still a great bike all-round
The way your front plastic is moving in the video, it looks like the brace bar under the front black plastic is loose. There is one bolt under there and it is notorious for backing out. If it is missing make sure you replace because that bouncing brace bar will cause you to short fuses when it contacts to it from jarring around while riding.
So you mentioned, you guys have owned almost every 450. Out of every 450 which one is your favorite for all purpose riding! btw i own a trx700xx and i loved your guys videos on the reviews, I am looking to pick up another bike!
I was going to buy a 2012 KFX back down until last moment because I sold my Honda 450R and didn't want another $450 for tight woods riding. If you had any chance to ride been tighter woods how does it do I don't like how my 450R was all top end. My wife adopted my 2021 Foreman so my 450R was a bit too much to ride with her she wants to go slow a lot in the 450 yards you know doesn't like that
A stock KFX 450 is compatible to a 400 like said in the video so I think it would be good for woods driving and your wife should keep up better with ya
@@lifeatv thanks. Thats too bad. I have an opportunity to pick up an 09 in really good shape for $3k. I wonder if I should. I’m used to a modified Banshee. I don’t want to be disappointed with it. Or have to mod it out. Thanks for the reply.

Bro I’d love to ride one someday like yours you’ve built. I loved my KFX for the exact reasons you said. 🤟
@@lifeatv Definitely a whole different bike!
Just picked up an 06 LTR 450 today and she scoots
Congrats man! Love our LTR!
I miss my kfx450r I used to have a 2010 in my opinion it was the best handling 450R that I ever rode
You sure because I had a 2008 and it handled like shit.
The green machine is looking sweet!
A head pipe make a difference bc mine sounds nasty with a full yoshi and seems to get up and go better too
great videos as always guys. love it. please keep them coming !
Thanks brotha!!
Personally I love the look of the kfx
Same!
Throw an FCI intake in it with a fuel controller and it is a completely different animal trust me

We drag race ours and blow the frames off 700s and other 450s. I’m turning it into a stunt bike this summer.

Perfectly said
I kinda want to see the dmc duel exhaust on it if you are going to change pipes
U put the big 3 on there and it’s completely different. I have one and thought the same till the big 3
+2 pc5 full dasa and fuel customs you got a beast

Thanks man, this was fixed right after the video 🤟
What's short fuses?
How did the lights pop out the oem hood to put into the maijers race hood
Get a fuelcustoms intake kit for it and and watch that thing wake up:..Needs a fuel programmer if it does not have one..
Has an HMF optimiser, thanks for the suggestion 🤟
Rockin some team green today! Great video 📹👍
I had a 2008 kawasaki kfx450r it was when it ran right

All 3 of us really like the Honda TRX 450. You have to deal with the carb on it but the throttle response is unmatched!
How much for the Crocs ?

What header pipe is on your Kfx450r
How much are all the plastics total
Love the “old man”! Us old guys use to ride in the dunes with no helmet...back in the 80’s it was no big deal! Here come the Karen’s!
FMF sticker
Has an HMF Exhaust.
😂
So it’s not as fast as the other 450’s?
More comparable to a 400 cc quad

Trx 450 vs KFX 450 vs 400ex.
Wonder if thats Jakes old Kfx450. He had the same pipe and bad starter
#savesportquads 👍👍👍
let me guess Madelia? lol
