But would not be my choice personally ... but then I have a Husky TE610 which is the best mid sized dually IMHO.

I have a couple sponsor shirts for the 450X from when i rode one out here in Vegas, I am no longer on the 450X or have been for a few years so i thought i would give some of you a chance at them.

Both $25 shipped US! XL in size

I'll put those to good use, thanks! PM sent.

SOLD!

I hated seeing them sit in the closet... I had some good rides on my g450 in baja and other areas.... I liked the BMW much better than the 450 exc im on now...

You know you have a shirt from Vegas when there is a stripper on it. Nice

Dusty Kiwi got some of Bert's gear and it's finally going together in my shed.

It loo great! I'm envious!

I seen this and thought of you guys, don't say I'm not good to you.

If I could afford to buy it I would, EVEN if I had to sell Katy M.

I put on a tail rack from Holan. I know these 450s don't like to take much weight on the subframe. This rack should provide a little more support for a fuel container I sometimes take along for RallyMoto events.

OK, so if you do a Google search for G450X under images, you get all sorts of awesome Sticker options for the shrouds, side panels and front and rear fenders. But, where do you actually "buy" these sets? i just brought home a new to me G450X with 350 s-miles on stand I am in need of some eye candy for it in the way of "cool factor".

Let me know if any of you have a line on some of these Sticker Sets….

e- Bay full up with them - go Motorcylce Parts and Accessories - BMW G450X ... lots there amongst other goodies!

Today i did a testride on this new to me 2010 g450x


I consider it quite noisy. a bit squeky. the bike is equiped with an aluminimum bashplate, and of course that doesn't help but all and all:
I made a youtube account to let you guys hear the noise. Is this the typical torque limiter giving in sound?

it's normal. it's the same on my bmw and also on the two of my friends.

Make sure it's got the foam spacer between the engine and bash plate or to make it quieter put the plastic bash plate back on.

Better still buy the Hyde bashplate with header protection - better protection all round.

Yust ordered one; Speedbrain gives them away for € 69,00.

My view from our Christmas Ride.

I have an g650x-challenge and have a line on a set of stock 450 forks. Wondering if the 450 forks are an upgrade over the stock x-challenge forks?

Would they be a straight forward swap or would there be mods needed for fitting?

Any help is appreciated.
