Kawasaki KX450F - 2015 Dirt Rider 450 MX Shootout Video

The 2015 Dirt Rider 450cc MX Shootout is complete, and after visiting the Southern California tracks with all six machines, and using test riders ranging from national pros to local novices, the results are in, and the Kawasaki KX450F finished third. Dirt Rider Editor Chris Denison, Associate Editor Kris Keefer, and test rider Ryan Dudek sat down to talk about the green bike, which dropped two places compared to its shootout win last year; in spite of a motor with a strong mid-range hit, the fork is more finicky this year, the machine feels big, and the bike's exhaust note is too loud. The complete shootout was published in the March 2015 issue of Dirt Rider magazine, check out the video here...
