Modern Stock EFI 4 stroke bikes have extremely touchy throttle response and almost a dangerous torque characteristic right off idle. They do this to sell more bikes as a novice or amateur rider will touch the throttle and have an instant feeling of "Oh this bike fast af boi". Whereas a racer wants a smoother, almost easier response off idle to save their arms from pumping up for the next 20-30 min.

@CmooreSinse Год назад

Clearly you haven’t ridden a 2018+ Yamaha. Best linear power delivery of all manufacturers.

@keelangerken5154 Год назад

@@CmooreSinse I have, still very touchy throttle response off idle, in all maps. Try riding an early efi Honda, the throttle almost acts like traction control. You can ride it for laps without getting a pump.

@samoliverio7455 Год назад

I completely agree. Went from a carbed 2 stroke to a 2018 kx250 and that throttle response was so weird when I first started riding it. I actually had a DRZ400S I would sometimes ride trails and I honestly used to wring that things neck when it came to the throttle. It built and was so smooth where as my KX was jerking me around the trails behind my house and I was way more cautious. I really wanna get better on my kx because I know it can do so much more than what I'm currently capable of.

@@keelangerken5154 I’m going to have to agree with you man my old 05 crf 250r was like easy mode compared to some of the bikes I’ve ridden. They definitely orient the bikes these days for more low end torque, (except Yamaha I find they like to scream out) a few changes and you can move the power on a 250f to where ever you want

@madurosfinancialadvisor1360 Год назад

Though it was my throttle control on my factory edition! Whiplash everytime I try to take off, was like man I'm rusty! 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for clarification, it's not me!

@lizzydog5728 Год назад

The realization that i never came into corners fast enough to bottom my suspension is not cool! Great video

@motoxmatt Год назад

Always the best info! Thanks Josh!

@comebackkid3931 Год назад

I love this but can y’all test somewhere other than glen helen . The rest of the country don’t ride on weird California dirt California tracks are an eye sore . Sorry if I pissed y’all off but it is true

@jpesicka999 Год назад

I mean...diff tires diff track is a diff test but this is a bike test so who cares. Just trying to see how much better the PC bike is.

@Davido50 Год назад

Upper Midwest dirt is superior.

@mikeyb4382 Год назад

Definetly a very technical track where it’s gonna need you to be comfortable in the bike vs like east coast tacky dirt where traction ain’t as much of a problem

@douglassloan6831 Год назад

Great analysis. It makes complete sense that the motor would be mapped to kick harder in the higher RPMs since that's basically where those guys live during a race. Full throttle or full brakes. Awesome video boys.

@richcornwall4567 Год назад

Josh, MXA is lucky to have you, your purpose and passion shine through. 👍

@Kawiboy Год назад

Love the Versus series Josh 👊 👍

@Davido50 Год назад

Lookin at '23 KX250F at my local dealer now! Lots updates to already great motorcycle. 👍

@KosmicHRTRacingTeam Год назад

Would be interesting to have a 3rd bike. Tricked out with all off the shelf aftermarket performance mods (not cosmetic)

@HPRaceDevelopment Год назад

stock motor pro chassis - i bet less than 1 second

@roymorales3654 Год назад

Could you make the same video but with husky rockstar edition and normal edition 250 ?

@dustin9035 Год назад

Wat year model is shomads bike

Wat year is Shomdas bike

@shmirdonkin Год назад

Hahaha. I was at glen Helen when you guys were doing this. I was thinking to myself "oh look this guy thinks he's Joe shimoda" 😂

@tychase2432 Год назад

Jerky throttle response pulls you out of ruts. Makes sense in supercross though i bet they have a bit more snap

@paulelm4645 Год назад

U need to compare his current bike vs 2023 production bike

@quintinlindsey7967 Год назад

Sounds like you have to ride Joes bike like a two smoke!!!💪

@OneSon744 Год назад

I love my Kawi ... and my Yamaha and my Honda and my Montesa.

@Davido50 Год назад

Yeaaa get em all. I collect em too.

@dirtbikesfordinner3706 Год назад

I thought Factory was just a sticker on side of your bike😅

@redneckracing556 Год назад

So essentially it is a 4 stroke that feels like a 2 stroke

@Davido50 Год назад

No not at all. No 2-stroke is faster than a modern 4-stroke around MX track . Period.

@TrueNorth13 Год назад

Is this even a debate lol

@maxrpm2215 Год назад

Forget about the 4strokes show us the KTM300SX now you have the best of both worlds.

@64maxpower Год назад

Of course you are going to pump the pro circuit bike, you want a ride from Mitch you're not going to bad mouth his bike

@daneyoung7770 Год назад

I can only dream to throw a leg over a PC bike one day.

@SheepEatingDuck Год назад

Isn’t FACTORY really STOCK..?

@paulelm4645 Год назад

That's not current factory bike his bike has SR on it this one dont

Kx -F .. F .. NO engañen a la gente. Two stroke forever

@johncoleman2495 Год назад

Those are KX250f's, KX250's smoke!

@cw3728 7 месяцев назад

KX250? Have we dropped the F nowadays?

@ADN1996 Год назад

these are kx250f not kx250

@phat_wrat4803 Год назад

They dont have the f anymore because they dont make 2 strokes

@cxbra Год назад

These arent KX250s, they're KX250F's. 4 strokes dont do it for me, I was misled haha.

@dasquadratohneecken7090 Год назад

Please dont Write kx if its a Kxf Brooooo

@dirtbikesfordinner3706 Год назад

these are Not Kx250"s

@upstategearheads Год назад

Yes they are

@canamxmr4760 Год назад

They dropped the Fs since the no longer make the 250 in a 2 stroke.

@koltonbarney Год назад

Oh dang, the 250 cc displacement had me confused
