MOTOCROSS ACTION’S 2022 450 SHOOTOUT VIDEO

Motocross Action’s 2022 450 four-stroke Shootout video is live and in this 28-minute feature, we go in-depth describing the Pros and Cons of the Honda, Husky, Yamaha, KTM, GasGas, Kawasaki and Suzuki 450 dirt bikes, ranking them from seventh to first, and announcing winners for categories like the MXA 450 Bike of the Year, Best Vet bike, Best Pro bike, Best Bargain bike and Best in Durability.

As usual, the bikes have been used, abused and then freshened up again for a second round of photos and videos. The exotic stage for our video was made possible by Arrizon Hierarchy financial services and life insurance and Glen Helen let us take over their track for the day. This shootout was also sponsored by Phoenix handlebars, Acerbis provided the bike stands that throttle syndicate dressed up nicely. We used the Motool sag scale to dial in our settings and although the bikes come stock with different tires, we used Dunlop’s MX33 tire across the board for consistency in our shootout. Additionally, MindFX kept us going strong throughout the process of testing these bikes and producing our 450 shootout.
