At the Philadelphia Supercross, Hunter Lawrence proved that even when the City of Brotherly Love throws a rain-slicked curveball, he still has the "works" to stay on the box. Racing his Honda HRC Progressive CRF450R Works Edition, the Australian star grabbed an early holeshot and looked poised to dominate Lincoln Financial Field. However, a late-race tumble in the rhythm section forced him into recovery mode, ultimately crossing the finish line in a hard-fought third place.
"I felt really good with how I was riding, and just the smallest little mistake in the wrong part of the track bit me," he said after the race. "Then your gloves are all muddy, so it’s just kind of trying to get back into a rhythm and not have the train completely come off the tracks. They say mud is the great equalizer, but it’s more like a minefield."
While he surrendered the red plate to winner Ken Roczen by a narrow four-point margin, Lawrence’s podium finish keeps his championship hopes very much alive as the series heads into the thin air of Denver and Salt Lake City.
"We’re ready for whatever the last two rounds bring, said Lawrence. "It’s going to be good!”
We are thrilled to share that the popular YouTube channel 650ib recently took a deep dive into the craftsmanship behind our high-performance exhausts. In its latest feature, they take riders on an exclusive tour of the Yoshimura R&D headquarters, showcasing the meticulous, American-made process that goes into every system. The highlight of the episode features the installation and real-world testing of our 49-state legal AT2 Full Exhaust on the Yamaha YZF-R9. Whether you are looking for that signature deep growl or a significant boost, this review captures exactly why our team puts so much heart into the engineering and manufacturing process.
We've officially released our RS-2 stainless full exhaust for Yamaha's new-for-the U.S. WR125R, proving that even a small-displacement dual-sport deserves a voice that commands respect. This kit swaps out the stock plumbing for a high-grade stainless steel header and a sleek aluminum muffler, shedding weight while waking up the bike’s power delivery. It’s the perfect upgrade for off-road riders who want their 125cc to sound less like a sewing machine and more like a podium-bound racer—because looking fast is half the battle, but sounding fast is where the fun really begins.
The folks over at Moto-1.com magazine recently took a 2026 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R out for a spin, and it's safe to say they had an absolute blast with the setup. In their latest "Out on the Road" episode, they put our bike through its paces, specifically highlighting how the Yoshimura AT2 3/4 slip-on exhaust transforms the riding experience by shedding 11 pounds and giving that 636cc inline-four a truly racy growl. It’s always a treat to see professional reviewers appreciate the "taut and precise" handling that defines this machine, not to mention their nod to the classic analog throttle response that keeps the ride feeling connected and raw.
Yoshimura R&D branches out from dominating the track to conquering the "dad" look with our fresh Chino Hat. Described as a "deconstructed" masterpiece, this durable nylon mesh cap is perfect for those who want to look like they understand performance exhaust systems, even if the only thing they’re currently tuning is the lawnmower. It’s a high-performance headpiece that proves you can appreciate precision engineering while still embracing the aesthetic of someone who definitely has a favorite brand of premium gasoline.
