Re: Best Motard?

Heres a little video clip of the 450R in action. They are real light, tons of power, great suspension for hittin jumps, but the wheels and brakes are coin, and no one make stunt parts for them, this one is one off custom that I built. The bike is a beast!!

Darius has a sick 450 also, when I saw it a few years ago, I knew I had to have one, took a long time to save up the $$$.

Yeah! Its a chromoly subframe, I also machined the passenger peg mounts and pegs, handbrake adapter, exhaust tip, 60T rear sprocket, and some bar ends so I dont snap levers any more, and dont have to run ugly *** handgaurds, LOL.

Re: Best Motard?

I just sold this KTM Tard a few months ago..... I slapped it together about 2 years ago....based off an EXC 525.... It was fun , but NOT as fun as an F4i ...

if you want to buy or build one, there is some good info at supermotojunkie.com
