Presented by 6D Helmets
We started riding our 2020 450s all the way back in June when we took delivery of the Husqvarna FC 450 and KTM 450 SX-F test bikes, and once we were allowed to pick up the Suzuki RM-Z450 a couple of weeks ago, we assembled a panel of six test riders and invited the manufacturers to join us for one final day of comparison testing. After hundreds of laps and dozens of hours logged on each bike, the Yamaha YZ450F came out as the overall favorite of the Swapmoto Live staff and earns 450 Bike of the Year honors. Today, Mike Sleeter and Pat Foster join us to talk about all six of the machines and the strengths and weaknesses of each. In the market for a new bike in 2020? You need to listen to this!
