introduction

How is the Kove 450 Rally Production Version different from the demo version?

Registration and that super scary "Competition Use" warning!

Cockpit mods I've done on day one.

We're actually doing a motovlog!

Setting traction control off doesn't have a dongle, but it's easily switched off.

First "off road diggies" on some single track! How does it feel at lower speeds?

Sad the production version (like the demo) doesn't come with hand guards. I'll go with flags instead.

Check out Warren's channel and tell him thanks for helping me get my motovlog mic setup!

Why are you riding so slow?

The brakes aren't Nissin brakes, but they're still fantastic.

What this bike excels at...

This is a true rally bike! Many Chinese built motorcycles are meant to be very inexpensive for markets in developing countries. Kove isn't. They're quality oriented with a focus on racing, and need to get off on the right foot with a good reputation.

Wanna see a legit review from a Baja 1000 and Dakar winner who KNOWS motorcycles? Check out Jimmy Lewis' review of the Kove 450 Rally on Dirt Bike Test

How does it lug at low rpm?

Seating position.

Tires on the Kove 450 Rally and what I'll switch to for more aggressive riding.

I should have an exclusive coupon coming soon for at least $200 off the Kove 450 Rally. Check the channel for updates. I'll post when it happens.

How much does it cost to insure?

Outro and much love! (Bad audio because my mic fell out of my helmet haha!)
