This year is set to be the largest off-road shootout they’ve ever undertaken with seven motorcycles competing for the top spot, and of course bragging rights.

The shootout began at their favorite motocross track in the world—Zaca Station near Santa Barbra, California. They also logged some more seat time last week at one of their local SoCal tracks, Perris Raceway.

To cap things off they raced the bikes this weekend at A Day in the Dirt all in a quest to learn which bike is the best.

The shootout publishes Monday, December 19, 2011.

KTM 450SX-F and 350SX-F.
My guess is that the 450SX-F will do well BUT... the 350SX-F will come in a distant last among the big 5 (donno bout the husky though)

KTM SUX.. they will not make it again just a big wow when they just intro the 350... but it doesn't perform in the USA so its not gonna be a wow factor there... but its ripping in the UK...

da 450 will be a surprise its good.. cos its nv been there...

ktm will have the usual HP, Torque, Brakes & E start

Crf is great, kxf is as usual easy as it is, yz is getting better by every lap.
A fact that engine capacity matters, every straights, every uphill it does count.
Proven at Ayer hitam mx race.
