Best for
Built purely for closed-course motocross racing, with a light chromoly frame, long-travel suspension, and a high-revving 450cc single tuned for explosive corner-to-corner performance.
Built for
Sharp, explosive, and razor-focused, this bike rewards aggressive inputs with instant agility and jump-friendly poise rather than outright top speed.
Not ideal for
This is not the right choice for commuting, highway touring, carrying a passenger, or anyone wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance everyday ride.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.

At 963mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will not reach the ground comfortably on the 2012 Husqvarna TC449, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
