Parts That We Have Tried, That Work (2023 Gas Gas MC450)

We test a lot of parts over here at Keefer Inc. Testing, but sometimes some things fall through the cracks and we don't get to speak about every little nook and cranny we come across. We are creating this monthly article on pieces that we test that actually work well enough to warrant the money…

Comparing The WP XACT 6500 Cartridge Kit And Cone Valve Fork On The Track

A lot of you KTM/Husqvarna/Gas Gas owners ditch the stock AER fork set up and go to a WP spring fork. I also get a ton of emails about which WP product is best for you. This article is dedicated to those that are thinking about which Xact Pro component is right for them as…

RM-Z450 Race Tech Re-Valve

Editors Note: This is about as raw of an evaluation as we get here at Keefer Inc Testing. Preston Jordan is one of my long time friends that needed to get back into the sport. I enticed him with a 2021 Suzuki RM-Z450 and here we are. Preston is your average blue collar rider that…

X-Trig ROCS Tech Triple Clamp (2022 YZ450F)

It’s hard to find aftermarket triple clamps that are better than stock these days, especially on the Yamaha YZ250/450. So much is involved in making a triple clamp that flexes enough, but also has enough rigidity to aid the machine in corners as well. With the triple clamp flex character so important to chassis handling…

Action And Reaction (Fork)

With every action there is a reaction right? This is no different when it comes to dirt bikes and the mechanics of each change/adjustment. Since suspension is always a hot topic with motocross machines, I thought why not give you guys some insight on what each change point/adjustment available to you on the fork, can…

Dunlop MX12 Rear Tire (120/80-19)

Dunlop offers a wide variety of tires for us moto/off-road guys but you don’t see too many reviews of the MX12 scoop tire out there. I recently had the chance to try a 120/80-19 rear MX12 at a few different tracks that range from sand to intermediate terrain with the occasional hard pack afternoons at…

Ride Engineering 23.5mm Offset Split Triple Clamps (2021 Honda CRF450R)

I have been looking for some added stability and comfort from my 2021 Honda CRF450R test machine since I got it and although my suspension setting has evolved/improved over time, I still need some compliancy from this machine. I have been working with Adrian over at Ride Engineering on some split triple clamps for over…

Works Connection Pro Launch Device

Works Connection had an older start device that used the old school spring and plunger design, but now have since gone to a magnetic locking system on the Pro Launch device. This has been in circulation for a few years now and is one of the most no fuss systems on the market. It’s so…

The Makings Of A Great WP Pro Component Settings On The KTM 450 SX-F (With REP Suspension)

Let me preface this article with how much I like to ride the KTM 450 SX-F. But… Yes, of course there is always a “but”, right? I like a lot of things about the KTM 450 SX-F, but the stock suspension isn’t one of them. The AER fork is a slight headache for me as…

Pro Circuit Linkage (2021 Kawasaki KX250)

The new Pro Circuit linkage system for the 2021 KX250 and 2019-2021 KX450 gives the KX’s handling performance an entirely different feel. I did this review on a 2021 KX250 because my son Aden was only 125 pounds and needed something plusher for his style of riding. Although I liked the stock KYB suspension, I…
