Own a 21 Tenere 700 just picked up a new 23 CRF450RL lots of little quirks but what a blast I’m 63 got tired of picking up my T7 not so hard onCRF LOL .Yes don’t crash but its part of the fun pushing my limits Cheers from Ontario
Nice looking bike love those gold rims front of mine had an RL everyone loved it. most of us ride RX’s here where I live you can ride on the road from trail to trail as long as you got a trail pass nice video.
My local dealer has one of these leftover 2026 for 8600, I was looking at the Tenere but for 8600 brandy new, I might grab this instead. The T7 is just dang heavy, even though I am a big dude and can handle it for some reason I want the 450.
Great video love my 2020 450l I got from older man with 2000 miles. Added 550 performance ECU reflash (Awesome), block off plate and Charcoal delete, full FMF exhaust, Acerbis full handguards, Tusk shifter and handlebar bag, and Fastway billet foot pegs. Running Kenda Millville front and kenda Trak master rear tire. Bike been great just got back from Hatfield and McCoy West Virginia trails with buddies.
i lowered mine 3/4 and 7 or 8mm in the forks and it feels way better in the woods alot less fatigue and more control when it gets sketchy in things like @ 10min in your clip
i'm looking for something to do the bdr. I currently have a 2 stroke trail bike and looking to trade for something that I can ride to the trails and pack some gear for camping (price range around 6 or 7k). debating on getting a mid weight adv bike or something like the suzuki dr650. I really prefer performance on the trials over highway speeds, but i also don't want to be feel like I been doing hard work all day while riding to the trail. Any thoughts on the 450rl as an adventure bike? ( sorry i haven't made it all the way through the vid yet.)
