Team Green Vet Build


Since we built our own SR a couple months ago, we wanted to build a vet racer KX450 that can give the older rider a little more confidence and feel out of their Kawasaki. Getting to customize the KX450 with an aftermarket chassis company like Ride Engineering really has opened my eyes up on what I can get out of this new generation Kawasaki chassis. Since the KX250 also has adopted the same chassis in 2025, most of these mods can roll over to the smaller green model as well.

We are deeply rooted in Moto—We’ve been here all our lives. Back in 1998 when we turned an underground newspaper into a shiny color magazine, it immediately changed the game with its unprecedented depth of coverage, sense of humor, and access to the sport’s biggest names. Today, our readers know they can go to Racer X Online for all the news, race results, and event coverage they need, and then enjoy even more detail and perspective in the pages of Racer X Illustrated. The mag offers a chance to learn something new on every page and stay connected with the people and personalities that shape our sport—the competitors out on the racetrack, as well as the ones behind the scenes—through our exclusive deep-dive stories and columns.

Our trademark has always been insider knowledge from the experts who are at the races and around the sport. We have long prided ourselves on our unparalleled race reporting and detailed storytelling. We go deep with the riders and teams to provide comprehensive coverage you won’t find anywhere else—all with first-class photography and design. It’s a full education in motocross past, present, and future.
