Nothing major from what I could tell, when they allocate a paragraph to

"The intake boot offers a straight, smooth tract for excellent engine breathing and more power. The airbox is reshaped to tuck neatly into the Bilateral Beam frame. "

You've got to figure they are running out of things to comment on.

Be an interesting shootout this year, KXF/YZF similar, CRF/RMZ all new, Husky's new engine a year on, KTM being well KTM :)

Whats with the body work I really hope they look better in person,
Although the write up and pics on motocross actions site are better than Racerx.
When I saw the leaked pics last week I thought it was just a bad Photoshop job with RMZ rear, Husky tank/shroud, and a KTM front guard.

Umm yeah, good point on the tank/shroud that's some damn fine ammo there :).

I do suspect it will look better, though those side panels have alot of making up to do from the photo's, what is nice is the weight, 2 kilo's lighter than CRF/RMZ, the KYB Speed Sensitive System forks sound good, wonder how they'll perform.

That motocross mag article was awesome, as you say way better than racerx, real work vs a copy & paste of the press release.

The speed sensitive forks often refeered to as SSS forks have been on the Yamaha's since 07, they often get good reviews in the tests.

I'm pretty sure the white version had black rims for 2009 as well, as apposed to the normal blue having standard coloured rims.

Dunno about that, looks pretty hideous though. If you ask me I'd say it looks euro. Kinda husky shrouds
