Being that I’m the resident off-road “soul rider” at Keefer inc. whenever something new for the off-road community comes to market I’m lucky enough to get the call and be able to put whatever it is to the test. I got an email early this year asking if I’d be willing to test Dunlop’s new…

We recently took delivery of FMF’s 4.1 slip on muffler design to put on our 2024 Kawasaki KX450. FMF is offering a full and a slip on design but for the time being let’s talk about the slip on version. FMF’s slip on version will shed almost 1.5 pounds off of the rear of the…
Remember Slater Skins? Yeah, the Blue Buffalo Supercross Team that had the complete signage/coverings across their bikes was John Slater’s brainchild, but most recently he has started to offer air box covers for late model YZ-F’s that increase airflow. We all know more air equals more power, but how does it relate to the track?…
Instead of just dropping off your suspension to your tuner and hoping he can get your suspension dialed, why don’t you give them some help by directing them on a direction you would like to go. But how do you do this if you don’t know what you’re feeling? Well, let us help you! In…
I have always been a crazy person for ergonomics which can involve lever placement, handlebar bend, grip compound, etc. I used to scour the pits hey year and ask a ton of mechanic which bar bend their rider prefers. I am sure they get SICK of answering these the of questions but I ask them…

Aftermarket muffler manufacturers rejoice! The 2024 Kawasaki KX450 has A LOT of room for improvement with its muffler system. The stock muffler is choked up and makes the KX450 feel somewhat lethargic for a 450. Yes, I know what you’re thinking.. “Kris, it’s a 450, how much power do we actually need”? You would be…
For 2024, most of the 450 MX’ers have NOT changed, Kawasaki is the only manufacturer that came to the table with a new model.
