Ping the way you have done the Shootout testing this year is awesome. I like the format of a different riders view on each of the bikes. I see you all put Honda last in pref, but thats great that its not just one riders opinion........ Maybe the Bike companies need to watch these videos for some good feedback. Keep them coming, you are educating a lot of riders on the aspect of choice. Thanks.

I own this bike and it's a dream. By far the lightest feeling 450 out there. One thing that Moen should have known however is about the chain tension - only on KTM's with PDS style rear suspension should the chain be run real loose!!! This 450 has linkage and it should not be run too loose!!!

- name 1 thing that's better on a Japanese bike.
KTM is the most customer oriented manufacturer out there. not to mention it
The Japanese manufacturers don't care what riders want.
KTM is run by ex-racers, Japanese bike makers are run by CEO's and shareholders.
