Yep that was me. I saw you too. That's a hella nice YFZ!! It nice to ride for a few hours after work. Takes all the BS of work and makes it disappear. I heard there is a race this weekend at Dutchman, you going?

How do you like the Ohlins? Are they the ones with the smaller top piston to resist bottoming. Just curious, I'm getting ready to slap Elka LT on when I get my A-arms, I'm always trying to learn about suspension and read an article on them. Glad to see people stepping up and trying different things. By pass shocks like Trophy Trucks would be cool. :p

I had ordered them that way. But some of the parts are on back order. When they come in, I'll will have them put on. Right now, I have abosutely no complainence at all. I was at Rausch again last night and hittin over shoutting a little to test them out. Thought I was landing on some pillows. Soaked up the hard hits pretty good.

I also seen you up at Rausch the other day. I was on the stock 450r. Your 450r is bad ***** for sure. Will you be at the Dutchmen this sunday? I am probably running the stock one. My white and black one I was telling you about will be out of comission for two weeks to get the shocks redone.

Yep. I might go up Sat. night and chill with Brian and Myka. I'm also trying to get a set of front tires since the only tires I have are the grooved radial, which really don't go well in mud. If I can't get a set I might just run the stockers.

I will look you up at some point and say hello. If I don't see you...good luck. I heard it is supposed to rain...so I def. wouldn't plan on running the radials. Cya there

Good luck to you! Just got a set of Holeshots. I heard that Maxxis is better in the slop but they were out.

Hey Tamehart, did you make it up? Turned out to be a great day for racing at Dutchman. I was hanging out at YFZgirl72m's trailer. Saw vasura450 he ran one hella of race and a few other people from ATVriders.

My first moto, my tire went flat and popped off the bead(should have put the beadlocks on). Second moto, first turn, big pile up and rammed someone in the rear. Battled back for 8th place. Not bad for second race ever. Motorama was first. Same luck, first moto, broke the chain on the last lap, in third, which would have transfered in to the main.

How did everyone else do?
