Looks like you could be onto something good there, see doug gust placed 3rd on the weekend first time out. But i will stick with my yfz450 for now.

well i saw one for the first time on wednesday cause a suzuki dealer bought one out to a guys property i know so we all went to check it out. He thinks something is lacking with it but mind you it hasnt been run in properly and he is used to racing a pretty worked honda 450.
I get a go on one sometime when its fine to see what i think.
It runs real smooth, and the set up with longer axle and that makes it hardly tippy. The guy said he could hardly feel any bumps or anything

Blaster Babe - Singlton race was a non event! they dont encourage racing or something bc the insurance is too high, and there were only two other quads out there and it was very very dusty. Was a pain becasue the weekend before they had 20 for the motocross track which is irrigated!
And want to upgrade as i spent two months on the 450 and it has amazing power! also i dont like the was my 400 sits, which is too high like an armchair and we have even lowered it, you hop on the 450 and the only thoughts that go through my head are race, race, race!!

Have you got any pic's to proove this??? - no, i ddnt take the camera with me sorry, was a little wet to be concerned with taking pictures but if you want we have about 10 other witnesses!!

I don't know about you Kevin but it's driving me insane! They have had them for a couple of weeks now but haven't released them because they didn't have enough for every state. Dosen't matter about the people who have had them on order since November!! What are you going to do with yours? Race? Dunes? Bush?

Ill be doing dunes and bush with a view to racing when time allows. The only form of racing anywhere close to Sydney is Motard.
