Looks like that thing rip's pretty good!

How fast is it in comparison to the 450 you were riding with?

It keeps up, but the RM motor is a mid range motor. It's got no bottom end then just goes from nothing to insane. It takes more shifting though to ride it fast but with so much less weight it's less tiring. I love it!!!!

Try switching pipes, I rode the CR around alot before swapping and changing pipes to see what difference there was. The gnarly pipe was a midrange pipe so I went from nothing to insane then flatend out.

The ftz pipe gives me a nice useable powerband with crazy topend, if you get froggy try to adapt a FMF sst pipe for a trx250r on there, it should change the powerband and get you more power.

I think they cost $199 if you feel like cutting and welding a new pipe.

I got lucky and found a FTZ on ebay for cheap.
