Considerig CRF450X
Posted: Sun Mar 28, 2021 12:49 pm
Hi guys -
I'm new to crf's but not to bikes, riding or wrenching. I'm considering buying a 450x to use as a dualsport. Figure an X model is lighter than the L and a little less expensive. I can ad the minimum to pass the required dot requirements myself for very little. Looking at later model used carbureted bikes, and also the new version with efi & 6 speeds. The mods I'll be looking at doing will be a comfortable seat, larger tank, and rekluse clutch, besides basic standard items like skid plate, hand guards, etc etc.
Looking for your knowledge and experience and older models vs new models.
Thanks to all.
