I have some questions on the new YFZ "R", hopefully I can get a couple of items cleared up from you all. I have been out of racing for a couple of years, wife and I now have a 10 month old daughter, so I am out of it memory wise from my quad / racing days, so I was was trying to find out the following:
If the width is 48.8" wide, is it possible to add offset ITP wheels on it, to achieve more width? And still maintain 50" regulations?
The other thread that was posted on this site on the YFZ450R, was in regards to the weight. The "curb weight" is 405lbs, is that with fuel, oil, etc? The only thread that I noticed from all who posted replys that came to mind, was the individual whoe stated that most race quads are around the 400lb range anyway, with long travel a arms, extended swing arm, axles, etc. Seems more accurate. Please forgive me bringing this up again, but I wanted some clarification. I saw in person the KTM450SX, and that seemed so light.
Please help....
Thanks
