Honda's trail-legal CRF450XRL is just one of the bike's featured in the August issue of TBM. Because in the next mag we've also tested the new range of 2014 Beta enduros (both 2T & 4T), ridden The Welsh two-day enduro on a Yamaha WR250; pitted a Yamaha XT660 Tenere against the BMW G650 Sertao; and we've also got the story on the brand new two-stroke Sherco enduro bikes. Plus David Knight reveals why he won't be riding the EWC next year... and we take a look at the direct-injection two-stroke dirt bike you may well be riding in 12 months time. And would it surprise you to know that it might be Japanese? All this plus lots more in the August issue of TBM!

Do you guys get the Mag in the USA or look on line at it ? Always a good read and good honest tests that has stood the tests of time really well The guys test a lot of bikes local to myself, would be nice to get them to test the 165, Now that would be a good read
Good and honest reviews from which they take a great deal of heat at times. They don't only push the latest model bikes. Sometimes the content is only a week old, compared to 2 months or so for Dirt Bike and MXA. Writing style is superb, my favorite magazine, been a subscriber for 3 years.
I have had a subscription to them for a number of years, great mag. I love their yearly review of used bikes and what they offer. Always good for a few chuckles.
I threw you out there to one of the magazines on Facebook. It was when all the mags got the 144's for the 2 stroke race. No reply though...
There are only 3 bikes that make me want a 2 stroke, Beta, Sherco, and a CR165 . I don't even want to think about a 300i lol
I use to think there was nothing better then a walt smith Cr 165 I raced it just about everywhere with good results too BUT I cant leave anything alone so I started to play with a Wr 300 Well with the help of Zip Ty Racing and David at Fast Bike Industries[ [Ohlins man] Well some time later and a bunch of money I now have a bike that so far works better then my 165 sorrie Walt The 300 might be old school but it just flat works for me now Heck it seem to work just fine for Letti against the Factory effor from Husaberg and the best rider in the world Garham Garvis.I looked at a new Husaberg TE 300 soon to be a Husky 300 and I just can not beleive for the cost of the bike plus spares which would be over $10,000 dollars That the Husaberg could be any better.So will keep waiting maybe by 2015 a new Husky 300 might just be something special As for the Beta 2 stroke to me it is not anything special also not worth spending $10,000 to be on the startline
I already know the Beta and Sherco aren't going to make me faster, they just look cool lol. I'm dreaming with those bikes anyway. Way to far out of my league
Advise know how God where do I start this will be so off topic but you asked Let me make a list and post it but I can tell you a few thing right off the top that made the bike a winner Cr electronicts Arc lever with a motion pro cable shorten 3 inches FMF pipe with turbin core sparky Rear big brakes with shark fin Dunlop 51 tires with mousses Then there is the Ohlin suspention from FBI Since I installed them and have been doing the Nationals on the 300 I have one 3rd place the rest are either a 2nd or a first. Only rode the 165 1 time this year at a National and did not do well
Just sent TBM a message with your offer Walt, I have even offered my bike up for testing if they havnt got a 125/144 laying about. Look forward to hearing back from them.
Honda's trail-legal CRF450XRL is just one of the bike's featured in the August issue of TBM Nothing new here in Oz they have been road legal since 2005.
In Canada, I used to be able to find it once in a while, but not lately. Should probably subscribe, as it's really the best mag, by far.
Hi Ashley, Thanks for getting in touch, i have forwarded this email to publisher Si and editor Barni for their consideration. Will let you know of any progress, Cheers Alex --------------------------------------------------- Well its a start! Now the waiting game begins.
