I rode 450 A and some pro sport stuff to get my pro card. Now I'm a little older and wiser so is like to just run 25 plus. When I had help I rode Yamaha. It was the first year for their new 450. I liked it but to get it to the point that I felt good on it took some money. When I was doing it on my own with just the help of a shop I rode kawis and always liked them alot.

I used to but broke my collar bone practicing and I work off ladders most of the time so that made it tough. Decided I had to pick work over racing but have between thinking about it recently. Yz250 2 stroke for me!

Cant go wrong with Hondas, they are always good bikes.. Im on a 13 1/2 kTm 450sxf fe now and i like it, i said i would never own a ktm but i rode a 13 350sxf and it handled so good it swayed me to sell my honda & buy a ktm. The engine on the ktm rips compared to the honda, suspension is meh, I have race tech bladders and different springs and its still no KYB .. It will do though until i can afford ohlins units..

I can honestly say I have never risen a ktm. I have heard the new ones are great bikes. As far as Honda, I've ridden them and didnt like the 450. I'm a taller guy and it just didnt fit me. Kinda like I was sitting really low. I know what you mean by the suspension, I had pr2 for a while, ten factory connection. Te factory connection A kit stuff was really nice. Then when I got on the new Yamaha 450 we went with a company called axis. They are part of Penske racing and do nascar shocks. That was hands down the best suspension I have ever had. But it would be out of te question to get that doing on my own for fun now.
