Motocross. Red or Blue?

It is almost that time of year when the 2018 bikes start arriving... well a few more months anyway. Staying in contact with the main dealers here in Bangkok, I regularly get sent through photos and specs of the new bikes.

The photos that I get sent from the dealers are typically not used by the manufacturer as promo photos. It is easy enough to find and see images of the new bikes but not engine parts, let alone cross section break downs of these parts.

The images below of from the Honda CRF450R 2018 model.

Even looking through the official Honda website, I couldn't find these photos. Those of you that ride will be able to spot some differences and notice how there is a continued effort to design an engine that sits central and allows for a smooth exhaust exit.

Alternatively, if red isn't your colour, how about the new 2018 Yamaha YZ450F.

Prices have yet to be released, but here's hoping they have some good deals!
