2018 Vital MX 250 Shootout 

This channel is really great. It deserve many more subscribers. The reviews are the most complete and detailed. Great work guys!

I really enjoy your shootout videos and they are so much better than every other channel out there. I actually feel like I'm taking away something new that I've learnt from your videos when you guys talk about each bike. Keep it up!

People are so biased and loyal to brands that, the only way to get a fair survey would be to put black plastics on every bike and just send the riders out. That would be more interesting and scientific.

they should make shoot outs with endure bikes!!!

This channel needs a million subs

love these vital mx shootout vids.

I have a 2018 Honda crf 250r and 2 of my freinds have ktm and the other of my freind has a Yamaha and they told me they really enjoyed my bike and how light it feels and how the top end is phenomenal

I’m 6’1, would I be comfortable on the Kawasaki you think?

2018 Honda CRF 250r looks bad ass.

Where’s the 19 shoot out at

I'd have to say the polka dot gear is the gaudiest but the pink n green is a close second.

Hello Vital MX, thank you for your great review! But i have still question which probably more people want to know. In your 2017 250f shootout many riders mentioned that the front end of the Yamaha wants to climb out of täruts and corners. As an major result you placed the bike in 4th. Now this year the yzf technically has not changed, so im wondering myself what has happened to the problem last year. Was it an set up problem? Did u ride only one yzf last year and maybe it had a problem? Because i have to decide between the yzf and the ktm and if the yami realy has some corner issues, my decision would be clear.

I hear gear box problems for the Honda

How much did ktm pay you?

Surprising how Honda came in second place in a class where supposedly horsepower rules. I recently rode a 2018 CRF250R as i'm in the market for a new bike and found it was slow even when it was revved out. I live in central Florida and our tracks look much different then tracks in California, our tracks are tighter and typically have good tacky dirt. From corner to corner the Honda felt like riding a 125. It would be interesting to see how the outcome of these shootouts would be if done on the east coast.

well if you look at the dyno charts Honda looks like it doesn't lack the power while sifting it barely moves

Which bike is the most narrow up front in the shrouds and middle cockpit? I feel like this has been an issue in the last 3 years

I'm 16 I have decent experience on a ATV but no experience on a dirt bike I want to get one which do I get not necessarily from this year but I want a 250 4 stroke

I didn't know Honda used a dohc for their new 250, hopefully they stick with the unicam it's unique and works well.

READY TO RACE!!!

Whys ktm 1 it should be Honda and then yamaha then Suzuki then Kawasaki then Hus then ktm

If the Husky finished behind the Honda that means the KTM did too but they just wanted it to win like usual. The Honda definitely should have won this and this is coming from a husky rider.

Have rode also the new Kawi, Suzi and the 15 YZF and i totaly agree with all your comments. Im 187cm and were realy struggeling especially on the RMZ. Its soo small. The Kawi was a little better but i wasnt that comfortable on. The Yami felt like i rode this bike for years! Best Suspension ive ever rode, great power und such a amazing feeling on this bike. But i wished it layed into corners a little bit more. I ride a 2015 250 SXF and i realy want more power on the bottem to the midrange. The question would be: how much more power has the newer KTM above the 15 model? Is it noticeable? Because i want the handling from the new KTM but also more power on the downside... Cant decide which bike i should buy. Didnt had a chance to ride the newer 16+ 250f sxf.

TM racing?

Where would a tm finish?

Glad honda got a good look. Always rode honda and this bike looks awesome. Hopefully see more red at the track instead of a these dam Yamaha

So tired of KTM winning. I like KTM and I own one, but I was rooting for Honda this year

Yz250 ❤

I love the Honda 😎 yamaha 😎 and the kawasaki 😎

I want that Honda

The bottom to mid on the CRF 250 is really bad compared to the rest. I bet it rides like a 2 stroke powervalve stuck open.

I would appreciate if someone that has more knowledge about bikes could help me. I am 13 years old 5 foot 6 inches and I moving up from 85. Well I talked to my parents about that I think 125 would help me develop my skills better and that I'm not ready for 250. They won't let me get a 125 because they say in the long run I will get bored of 125 power and they say I'm ready for 250. I'm not sure what to do. Do I try to get a 125 or just go right to 250. They also don't want to drop 7000 on a 125 and in 2 years drop 8000 grand on a 250. Please respond.

125 ccm

i have the ktm

calling bs on the kawi :/

KAwasKi !👍😉

Yamaha all the way !!!

#teamhonda

I wish Honda got #1

HONDA CRF, no improvement the same!

They should all quit on these 4 strokes and put in some 125s and 250 2 strokes in those chassis would fix everything

The 2018 Honda should have got first, the KTM is overrated and always has been.

What’s with everyone and liking ktms soo much yeah there a good bike but mate it depends on the rider if your a shit u can say ktms the best because everyone else is. That’s what u guys do

Yamaha

Wrong. Kawi is the best

First

Suzuki needs to do us all a favor and quit making bikes. They literally place last every year

I had the stock clutch on the '19 450 and itvwuz tha bomb...

I have the '14 Kx....i wanna ride that '17 when they went thinner and more powerful....and I now want the '23....
