Channeling your efforts into sorting your suspension would be money and effort well spent.

As proven last weekend when Nick did my brothers CRF250 suspension, quicker laps, and almost the same all the way through instead of falling away and the end. Oh and no arm pump for the first time since he got it.

As far as the airbox goes, well mine is modified for clean air as the 650 picks its air up out from under the rear guard and the wheel creates dirty air there. I can do 3 rides and the filter is ok with the side air intake, one ride leading (no one else’s dust) with the standard setup and the filter is dirty. You block the standard intake tract of completely and it gets clean air from the side through the modified side cover (no ram effect) Ask Crash how good it is regarding filter life and not dusting your engine. Mick hasn’t done it his yet and has seen the other results :huh: It’s a simple mod and I was put onto it by GHR when I asked the benefit of the cold air intake and he said no it’s a clean air intake :pinch:
Funny thing I was going to mention it in my last post before but thought it would start a whole new debate

You’ll get alot more dust and shit in your airbox for no real gain. If anything you will lean the bike out and need to re-jet to suit as it will backfire on decel.

And and and unless you are about one of 5 blokes in Australia than can ride a CRF450 for what its worth and what it brings to the table you will have worked out by now that it has more than enough poke for you, me and Moto put together :laugh:

Emission laws in California (The biggest dirt bike market in the world) outlawed 2T. This meant the manufacturers had to change tack to sell bikes in this huge market and the rest of us got dragged along for the 4T ride.

California is less than 8% of the total world market I have read, thats total world market. I cant see one state in the world create the change you are talking about Scotty not a market share that small (yes the largest sale area in the world but still small in world sales percentages). It may have had something to do with it, California has the toughest emission laws in the world at the moment the laws are changing all over the world California is just in front of everyone else. They all end up where California is just 4 years later on average. Emission laws all over the world are getting tighter year by year. All countries catch up through their agencies over time and then the world catches up. I teach emission controls every day and struggle to keep on top of it :blush:

I think like Rocket pointed out the YZ400 was developed and was a winner (and fitted into emission laws and future emission laws), technology jumped leaps and bounds and as KTM as proved what wins on Sunday sells on Monday. Two stroke development stalled or didn’t grow at the same rate four stroke development did and maybe that cycle is about to swing back if you believe the two stroke riders.
