RED MOTO HONDA KITS
Twenty-year veteran of the National Enduro Series and member of the 1994
US ISDE team, Matt Stavish showed up at the Sumter Enduro with a pair of
Honda’s that he had modified with Red Moto kits. One of the bikes was a 250
that Matt had modified to a 300, and the other was a 450 that was reduced
to a 400 (418cc).
“I’ve ridden both the bikes stock,” said Stavish. “The 250’s are good, but for
the vast majority of enduro racing, they’re not really enough in a stock form.
And then 450’s are total beasts anywhere east of the Mississippi. The 400 is
tamed down quite a bit and is much more ridable. Red Moto also makes fuel
tanks, which is a good size. It’s halfway between R and RX. They also make
radiator braces with an integrated fan kit for both bikes.”
