Our 2026 Kawasaki KX450 getting a wellness inspection check after 30 hours. For how hard we’ve been on her, we were SURPRISED to see the valves within spec, the PC piston as well as the crank looking good. @eddie_laret_ is getting her ready for the @lorettalynnmx Regional next week @foxraceway .
This specific machine wasn’t losing power or giving us a sign that it NEEDED a rebuild but we wanted to check it out for ourselves. Look for a list of parts as well as the cost to rebuild (OEM Kawasaki parts besides PC 14.2:1 compression piston) in an upcoming @rmatvmc Keefer Tested Pod.
Learn more how this @ktmusa 150 XC-W has been rehabbing one of our test riders back into shape. This small bore off road two stroke has been serving a purpose the past few months! We break all of the good and the bad in an article on our website that is up now.

Self-monitoring tools can help you train better.
They can also turn you into a rider who can’t make a decision without checking a score first.
The device isn’t the problem.
The reaction is.
Whoop, Garmin, HRV, sleep scores, training load, food tracking — all of it can be useful. But none of it gets to decide what today is.
Your job is to use the data as information, not as permission.
A green score doesn’t mean hammer.
A red score doesn’t mean hide.
A bad night of sleep doesn’t erase the plan.
A good readiness score doesn’t mean you get to turn every ride into a race.
The goal is not to chase the number.
The goal is to execute the session correctly.

Let’s just get this out there before someone else catches it. Cable clutch life. Looks like the 47 is looking for some better engagement feel off those grates.
