Someone for another country should make a similar video because I know here in Australia the Wr450f comes completely street legal like the crf450l

[tysonbradley]

how can you compare the bikes without putting the same tires on both bikes? Seems like a fundamental step required

[adzythepwcblokeinaustralia]

The Australian Yamaha comes complete with competition ECU and WFI and it’s street legal !

[controlledfreakr]

I went with Honda for the rebuild factor. I’ve been riding Yamaha for years love the yz 250t but the crf450lx is a weapon. I don’t regret my decision

[rjlindner]

Was the crf upgraded for a exhaust and vortex ecu or no upgrades.

[stevenbrooks]

Ya should of been the 450x if you wanted a real fair comparison

[Honoer]

Seems like the rx or x would be a better comparison?

[bigronwaggles]

I have a 2005 wr 450 it's the best bike I have ever owned and I have owned a lot of bikes from Maico to Bultaco, honda and suzuki.

[jimmytheshark]

Horsepower same? If both are uncorked?

[tdog]

Gotta hate a weird screw in the carburettor on a fuel injected bike.

[ignacioparodi]

what about vibration? noise? comfort? suspension ?

[gmac]

I love that the Wr is street legal in Australia

[mariorcontino]

Good review, thanks! Where are you riding in this video? Hopefully somewhere in Southern California, so I can go there

[silvan]

Are you sure the yamaha has a carburettor?

[SomeTechGuy]

Let me save you 5 minutes of your time. The video says the Honda if you want to license it for road use. The WR is better off road.

The reviewer says you need to remove a throttle stop in the carb. That is incorrect. The 2012+ WRs are fuel injected. For better off road performance you need to replace the stock WR ECM with the off road version. Source: I owned a 2012 WR450F and now ride a YZ450FX.

[halosavage]

How does the the crf compare to the Yamaha and you say the tires are bad? You can't review a fuel injected bike and say it has a carburetor..

[kightlights]

How much do you have to spend on maintenance on the WR450F vs the CRF450L? I was going to go with the WR450F as my daily (at least 5 hours every day) for commuting and doordash deliveries but need to know how often I'll need to do rebuilds and valves and all that jazz? Does one last longer than the other or easier to maintain for street only use?

[brettdesnoyers]

I just bought the brand new wr450f today, cant wait till it arrives. It should be insane in the membrane!

[matangistation]

What did you film the smooth rear facing footage with?

[troyfly]

How does the throttle control compare? I have watched reviews saying the Honda throttle is "off or on" snatchy. Is the Yamaha the same?
