the white rear fender looks pretty sweet!

It looks pretty sweet. I’m not sure I’m crazy about the white rear fender or not. At least it got better suspension (KYB).

racerface607 | 0 Props | 2008-09-05 15:51:29

the back looks like a ktm. and that exhaust looks retarded. i dont like it but i bet its fast

motoman575 | 1 Prop | 2008-09-05 16:28:06

u can definetly tell that the companys are giving the 09 models a more futuristic look.

codee527 | 0 Props | 2008-09-05 19:17:28

i like it all except the exhaust. the tip looks retarded and wouldnt the hearder pipe get dented all to f#$% being in the front of the frame like that?

NMdesertracer | 0 Props | 2008-09-05 19:58:30

I must say im a Kawi guy but damn I like the look. Good job Honda the only thing that worries me is the header. Yes its steel but it looks like its gonna get dented. Pretty dang sweet!!

its looks awesome. but honda totally shafted the 250f riders for 2009. they dont get the new frame, suspension or motor updates. the get BNG and the white back fender. everything else is the same

LOOKS ALOT LIKE A KTM TO ME. I THINK THE HEADER IS GONNA GET DENTED TO HELL. AWESOME TO SEE SOMETHING NEW THOUGH. PUT SOME EXCEL RIMS ON IT AND SOME NEW HANDLEBARS HONDA AND MAYBE I’LL BUY IT. lol.

mattmoto441 | 1 Prop | 2008-09-06 14:42:59

well i am a honda guy and i dont like it the plastic looks like C*ap, and the header is going to be a big issue with dents, wow cool new suspension but the rest of the bike is butt ugly. look like im gettting a NEW RMZ or a KX.

dcshoeco024 | 0 Props | 2008-09-08 07:25:06

I actually like the new look. Its one of those things where its gonna take some time to get used to it cuz its a completely different look.

Adam153 | 0 Props | 2008-09-06 18:22:08

It looks like they are trying to copy KTM with the half number plates. Besides that i still think it will be the best bike out there.

speedy jr | 0 Props | 2008-09-06 22:47:41

the last 6 seconds where the best.

Tobias_From_Sweden | 0 Props | 2008-09-07 10:10:10

haha, i totaly agree!

hobiee | 0 Props | 2008-09-07 09:43:35

typical jap crap. lets find the best out there(ktm) and lets copy and mass produce, been doin it for years why stop now

motoxman495 | 0 Props | 2008-09-08 00:05:55

your dumb

dcshoeco024 | 0 Props | 2008-09-08 07:23:17

hobiee, u are an IDIOT! Jap crap? yea ok…….. I like KTM a lot but the best out there?…….Not even close, they might be the fastest but thats about it. And honda copying them like they have for years???????? what the hell are you talking about???? What is something that any other manufacturer has copied off KTM besides that the new Honda sideplates look somewhat similar?

motoxman495 | 0 Props | 2008-09-08 00:05:32

That bike is sick! and the last 6 seconds were sweet too!

hobiee | 0 Props | 2008-09-11 00:13:32

dcshoeco024 sorry to upset you i was just givin my opinion thats all, its ok to disagree i was not callin u out just chill. been on orange since i could walk and guess i am kinda biased thats all. again sorry to stir u up. last 6 seconds were pretty good if it makes u feel any better

everyone should go back to 2 strokes…….

juggalo12 | 0 Props | 2008-09-16 17:47:52

I like the new 450, yeah it does sorta have KTM features, but I don’t care about that, if you really looked at it Kawi and Suzuki, with red plastics would kinda look like a honda. I guess that style of plasics is what looks and fits the bike best.
