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…

Different mods may have different outcomes on the track so we dissect…
