dt502001 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Yep thats IT had one made a great ice bike taller gearing than the yz's so turn in braking( for thoes that have never iced you don't use the brakes just pitch the bike in and slide till you slow enough to get around the apex and then gas your way out) and out of corner pull was great, endless wheelies in 3rd gear with the torque that the heavier flywheel gave, great bike another one I wish I still had. Another great one of yamaha's way of breaking the rule's of what is road leagle ,just like the wr250f it's a race bike in wolfs clothes to be road ileagle ... OOps sorry I'm hi jacking your intro welcome again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
