boonman Posted July 22, 2003 Report Share Posted July 22, 2003 I was at the local track, running TT this particular day, and there was a brand new 450 running in the pro class. Everyone else has "TT" bbikes in that class. Sway bars, Hoosiers, and lots of power. This "clown" rolls up on the line withhis bone stock 450, stock tires, suspension at stock height, and the run. Let me tell you, it was an eye opening experience. The 450 SMOKED everything and everyone on the track. There was no comparison. He had 3/4 of a lap on everyone else in the field. I have never seen aything else like it. If I had the $$$$ to pony up on one of them, I would surely have one. I will never get rid of my shee, well, maybe to get a new or different one but them 450's are damned fast. And they don't even have close to the power of their MX bike motor derived friend. By something like 10-15 horse if I remember correctly. This is out of the box of course. But the motor in the YFZ is NOT the motor that is in the MX bike. It still doesn't matter. At 350 lbs. and the HP it does have out of the box makes it a killer. it will be interesting to see how things progress as more and more people get on these machines.......
