In addition, the base warranty for marine engines from 19 to 60 L in a heavy-duty or medium continuous-duty rating has been extended 1000 hours beyond the previous term, while intermittent-duty coverage for the same engine range has extended 1500 additional hours. Cummins continues to offer optional Encompass coverage, which can provide an additional three years/10,000 hours of coverage to the engine.
If this were a 125 or 250F shootout, horsepower would trump everything else. In the little bike classes, power is the most important factor in choosing a winner; however, in the 450 class, it is less important. By no means is it the least important factor, but power placement often overrides power output. So, if we used the 125/250F shootout criteria on the 450 shootout, the 2019 Honda CRF450 would be the hands-down winner. For any rider who is looking for sheer power, the CRF450 has it. It is the only 2019 450 engine to crack 60 horsepower on the dyno. Those would have been factory engine numbers a few years ago. Best of all, the Honda doesn’t give up usability to reach for the sky. The 2019 CRF450 produces great power from bottom to top. The 2019 Honda engine gets an almost 3 horsepower head start on every other bike.
This was my question originally submitted to Sajeev and I have learned a lot from the mostly thoughtful comments.
Where is tnt, gms and papa??? You guys are all over the ford recalls, which have no crashes or injuries, yet you say great job GM???? You are happy people got injured in these lackluster trucks? Wow, government motors and their fans are worse than the rest of us thought…..
The clutch pedal felt perfect during the test-drive – and I only moved the adjustment rod approximately 2 mm. Final (or settling in) adjustments are more about feel than instructions.
According to Automotive Fleet, GM/ Chevy informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that there was Base radio default in their pickup trucks. The base radio gives off warnings if the key is left in the ignition or if seat belts aren’t clipped on properly. It also warns you if the doors are left open. Without the base radio working correctly it would cause the trucks not to be in compliance with motor vehicle safety standards. The alert can prevent needless injuries, and theft of the vehicle in case a driver or a passenger forgets. Pickup trucks affected are the 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 and the 2005 Silverado HD. There were no deaths or injuries reported due to this defect but Chevy took it seriously and fixed it of no charge to the customers.

Rollovers can happen for many reasons: the vehicle’s weight balance, sharp turns, and elevated center of gravity.
Now you’re telling me the car is going jam on the brakes, or yank the steering wheel every time it beeps? No GD way, I’d set fire to it and take the insurance check after Day 1.
Hopefully no more lives lost are added to GMs ever growing list of corporate death toll. Posted by: Dudlydooright
It is now clear why the GM mid size trucks have been "Mall Rated". Best be careful on the Mall speed bumps. I wonder if GM will recall or as one of GM’s said weesel its way out.
(6) Honda CRF450. These forks are decent for light and slow riders and work well on some tracks, but the forks ride low in their stroke, giving up the easy travel to sit on a harsh spot. The rigidity of the frame and stinkbug stance aren’t easy problems to solve. We slapped last year’s 2018 CRF450 Showa forks on our 2019 machine. This helped balance out the chassis and brought the forks up in the stroke so they weren’t riding in the harsh spot as much. Even though the forks are the same internally, Honda used a fork oil that has less stiction.
