Kawasaki 450

KFX450 would come with an all-aluminum chassis, new 450cc engine (strikingly similar to Kawasaki's dirt bike motors), Electronic Fuel Injection, electric start and reverse. These new photos give a better look at the aluminum frame and reinforced aluminum subframe. We also noticed the following features:

Front shocks that come with a single dual-rate spring and reservoirs for better shock oil cooling and longer performance without fading
Renthal handlebars
Race-style plastic fenders with integrated front number plate
The rear disc brake rotor is a drilled wave-style for faster brake cooling
Aggressive Dunlop Radial Tires with reinforced rear sidewalls in sizes 22x7x10 up front and 20x10x9 in the rear
Rear wheels that come with reinforcement rings on the inside of the rim for better protection against rock damage to the bead.

Don't ask me how I got the film out the front gate...let me just thank Fox17 for taking one for the team. He probably won't be able to sit down for a week.

It will be interesting to see how much weight they saved with the Aluminum Frame and how long it takes me to break/crack it. (Maybe we should let those animals from Quads Only do the test jumps)

This looks more like a trail racer then an actual MX quad...I think it will be released by....(checking magic 8 ball) March.

"Susie, put your purse down, and fix your make up....he's calling you a girl"

Any self respecting man would challenge him to a race...

Or at least challenge him to a dance off...

Or maybe 20 rounds of barenuckle boxing.
