Just curious if you guys think watching chad shred his yfzr and getting dialed for the season makes you kinda want a yamaha?

I do know I anticipate the aftermarket to expand much more in the yfzr direction this season while he puts yamaha up front...

Doesn't make me want one because I have ridden one lol. They just feel awkward to me.

One thing is forsure, you will see the yami on the podium this year..also I think wienen will bring great development to the platform, because he has the freedom of running his own show. I'm not personally going to run out and buy one but people can't deny the pro influence.. canams run up front and from what I understand they are far from cheap nor reliable. I personally like when the top 3 or 4 are on different brands. Sx this year has been a good example.... Battle of the brands can't wait...

On another topic.. I'm pretty sure I spotted a Walsh crf hybrid in wienens pics being built...very curious to see if he races that bike at all.

Yeah that would be interesting, unfortunately you probably won't see him race one at the nationals. I thought you had to be outside the top 10 in points in the Pro class to still be able to also run the Pro Am Production class, and that was the only class that a current Pro could also run. I believe the highest class that hybrid would be eligible for is the Pro Am Unlimited class. Not too sure, but I remember it being something along those lines.

I can't tell a diffence in either of mine they feel about the same.....I always feel jammed up on the other 450s except the can am and the ktm but I guess being 6'5" dont help much either felt like the bars were laying right my lap and they had they stems but the yfz felt best to me
