This video shares a comprehensive overview of the new XTravel BVS 5-link front suspension and rear no link linkage rear suspension on the Honda TRX450R. I was beyond lucky to spend many hours riding this machine over the course of 3 days at the legendary Glamis Sand Dunes (Imperial dunes) in Southern California. This machine with XTravel's tech is truly one of a kind and in my opinion has a great chance at becoming industry leading technology over the next several years!

@PeteHager 2 года назад

Theres been a few questions regarding suspension travel, width, and weight on the XTravel set up. Their front ends are 50 inches wide and the TRX450's front travel is 12.75" and the rear is 13". The YFZR's front travel is 13" and the rear is 14.5". As far as the set up adding weight the increase is pretty minimal. I personally thought the front end weight seemed to be very normal and similar to most machines I've ridden 👍

I love to see improvements like this in our industry. I like how it connects w the spindles in 2 places for each arm, without riding it just looks like common sense and to have adjustability at both tie rods must be great, I'd love to try that out. They couldn't of picked a better guy to translate how it rides and feels. I'd love to see this for Raptors! Very interesting thanks for stayin on top of our sport Pete.

I only ride Hatfield McCoy trails, at my farm, or around my property and I am looking to get a new Yamaha unit. I absolutely love the look and endless amounts of aftermarket parts of a YFZ450R, but love the torque and reverse of a Raptor 700R. So, I am wondering if anyone has ever put a Raptor 700R engine in a YFZ450R frame? Is it possible? How difficult would it be? What parts are needed? How much will it cost?

If sport ATV's start to rebound and XTravel sees more demand and growth in the segment then I can see them building kits for more models. Unfortunately SXS's are the focus right now since thats the direction the industry is going. James is a diehard quad guy though so I'm glad he's still pushing for the TRX and YFZR 😬

@notlocw 2 года назад

@@PeteHager yes the sxs world has takin over the quad and my world. There are still plenty of us quad rides that are looking for that extra push on performance in suspension. The platform they have is just going to get better watching you ride the trx was thrilling I hope they get the attention they need to make it for other bikes Cause Im buying one!!

Good eye! It only hits the linkage with the big body rear shocks on the front when the bars are fully turned. Since this machine is very Baja focused its rare that you have the bars turned that much. With standard shocks there's enough clearance 👍
