2023 Honda CRF250RX/450RX First Impressions

Written By: Michael Allen When Kris invited me to come ride Honda’s latest off-road offerings I couldn’t say “yes” fast enough. I hadn’t ridden off-road in awhile and to be quite honest I need more trail riding/play riding in my life because for most of us that’s where it all started. Sometimes getting back to why…

Written/Tested By: Gary Sutherlin The 2021 Kawasaki KX450X has been a bike I’ve been interested in putting some time on ever since Kawasaki decided to jump back into producing an off-road 450.

Thor Terrain Off-Road Pant And Jersey

Kreft Suspension For Husqvarna TE300i (XPlor fork)

Written By: Michael Allen Let’s be honest, as riders we have all probably uttered these words to a suspension tuner, “I want it plush, but stiff”.
