I'm so glad you are doing these for yourself now. You have enough knowledge, and fans to make your channel as big as any on RUclips 👍
You missed mentioning Shock Rebound Setting.
Thanks. Love the new YZ450F can't beat it. Though the GasGas 450F factory edition looks sweet! - Ohio
M8 so pumped ur doing throttle show stuff like this ! always listen to ur reviews/shows and set ups 🙌🏼cheers lad from ur cuzos 🇬🇧
Waiting on mine!
Excellent video ping. Stuck between this and the 23 kawi 450 . Cheers from Oz 🇭🇲
Same problem with my 2022. If you override it, it feels nervous and hard to control. But if you slow down and ride in control and have smooth throttle control it's easier to ride
just pick up mine last week. im 5-6 160 62 yr old vet. your specs are perfect on her first day. coming off 46yrs on hondas all my life. this bike is next level! thanks for your info!
Good stuff, Ping. I can remember buying a bike from the shop and never touching the clickers. Why? Because no one taught about it. That's just how it was. I often wonder how much better and safer my racing would have gone.
Question: What is your favorite STOCK bike of all time? I have two: The 1998 YZ400 and the 2002 YZ250F. Appreciate you and GL always keepin' it real, and not becoming "do gooders" like alot of other folks.
This bike is my current best
Good stuff, thanks.
My forks 7mm stock . I was lazy and just rode my first 2x sessions on flogged out sand tracks with 112mm sag. Only early days yet but I'll Def try these settings .. oh and another note the airfilter stays sooooo much cleaner there is no ram air vents from the front anymore . The air intake is kind of ontop of the motor.
Man, that riding spot looks MINT!!!
I love it!!! I just got my hands one one. I weigh in around 220lbs. What do you weight just for comparison? I assume your running the stock springs for the suspension too?
Ping is roughly 170 lbs
@@whiskeythrottlemedia Awesome! Thank you! 😊
My bike is here and I'm updating the clickers per your recommendations, thanks. Your vid didn't mention changing the rear shock rebound. Did you leave that stock?
yes
I’m still waiting for a race spec for the 22 gas gas mc 450 unless you did one and I can’t find it. Been struggling a little
It’s the air fork
Also if you would do this for the 2023 300sx ktm that would be great.
Whisky throttle isn't sponsored by KTM so you probably won't see an ad piece for them
We will be doing these features on all brands. Stay tuned.
Hi,
The setting you are recommending, are they with the stock springs or do you have the right spring rates?
stock
stock fork height is 7mm
You ride that bike well. It visibly looks as though you enjoy riding it. Try racing a National, you'd do great
do you know who he is?
He is an ex-racer ya dingus
@@cleanmachineautodetailing an ex racer can't be acknowledged for riding well?
@@64maxpower youre telling him to do a national and he already did them in his pro career...
@@cleanmachineautodetailing please tell me this, am I debating with a 17 year old or a female?
Hi David, you didn't tell how many rebound on the rear
How are these YZs for vet / senior riders coming off a 250cc 2 stoke?
Omg the 4T is so much easier to ride for us old guys. You won’t regret it
Not sure if he mentioned it or not, was making food during the video but what is ur hight and weight?
5'7" 170
This pings new channel??
Yep… welcome!
It makes 10 more hp in 100 rpm. See it wheelie out of turns.
2:06 You just shared the secret to riding fast. Wonder if anyone paid attention....
I really love my new Honda but this new YZ450 has me wondering if I should switch I need to ride one.
I rode the new Honda and did not like the power nor the front end over my yz. The Honda power seems really week compared to the Yamaha. Also the Yamaha is more predictable and goes wherever you point it.
@@mxr248 a 23? I actually have a custom mellow map because it was so aggressive stock. I had a 19 YZ450 and the Honda is definitely meaner and yes the handling is not for the faint hearted but I’m used to it and like that feel. That’s why I’m interested in the new YZ everyone says it finally has that front end tracking in the corners you always lose some high speed stability with it but that’s how I’ve always preferred my bikes anyways. I can handle almost tank slapping if you get to lose but hate a bike that feels unplanted up front in the corners.
@@jonruger I have got the 2016 yz450 on up to corner ridiculously good and still have the stability. My friends were wondering how I’m even passing them mid part of the corner of a off camber.. plus sand and other tracks I can point anywhere and it will go. I can shoot across other ruts in corners without effort. They rode my yz’s and love them.. now several have switched and another is selling his Kawasaki to get a Yamaha. My friend has the new Honda with Vortx mapping and some other mods and it’s very mellow compared to the Yamaha. Even rode a guys brand new 23 Honda and same. But they like that no hit feeling. Mine I have so it rolls on smooth for a bit but if you twist good it hits.. I’m waiting for the dealers around here to get the new 23 yz. But it’s winter here so have to wait and ride when spring hits.
@@mxr248 they hit very hard im not sure where you get this from. Of all the newer 450s I’ve rode the Hondas are hands down the most aggressive even all the shootout test riders say that. I had a 16 YZ as well and it was kind of a dog very heavy feeling bike the 19 was only a few pounds lighter but it feels like 20 this new one is even lighter.
@@mxr248 almost 20 years ago Hondas definitely felt more mild and less aggressive than the 426/450 but that hasn’t been the case for awhile. I’m not brand loyal I’ve owned all the bikes but GasGas so I can be objective about them.
You forgot rear rebound?
I would someone smarter than me explain the sag ? seems like forever it's been 105-110 ..... now 90-100 ??
Hey Ping you forgot to thank Yamaha for lending you the bike ( shame on you )
Well if I ever get this bike I'll never refer to it for my settings because I don't ever want to hear that song in the background ever again 😵
