Cossie331bhp Posted November 19, 2015 Hello all, I'm looking for abit of advice, I'm looking for a new fun bike. The choice seems to be a wr450f (2007-2012) or a crf450x 2015 black edition Which bike is best? I'm using the bike for fun/green laneing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveThe Snakes My Rides (8) Posted November 20, 2015 I'm into reliable so I do WR450's x 3. The 07-11 is a great bike. Derestict it get rid of the garbage base valves in the front forks. Racetech works well. Send the carb to Zipty for all the mods and wallah you've got a great bike that will last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yamaha111325877 Posted November 20, 2015 I would recommend the Wr450f but the crf450x is a great bike too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dirtshark808 Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) Wr is alot more reliable Edited November 21, 2015 by Dirtshark808 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlatour Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) Whatever brand / model WR or CRF-X, since you seem to by buying it pre-owned, simply look for the bike that's in the best condition, idealy one with past maintenance records. Avoid bikes that have been modded, engine and suspension wise. (unless it was set-up for a rider of your weight and riding skill). Often an older bike that was better cared for is preferable to a much newer one that's been neglected. Edited November 21, 2015 by mlatour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
