Default V-Force beats Bombardier's DS650?

My friend just pickup the DS 650 Baja we have only ridden together once and it was only his second day on it… so we didn’t race them yet, but I can say it seem the V is going to take him at least until 40 MPH. My modifications are pink spring, lighten clutch cover, Dial-A-Jet, 12 Uni-Vents, I have not bought an exhaust system yet… still researching (looks like Yoshimura Pro System at this time)

3tv,

Have to agree if the race is over 1/8 mile. I was doing 67mph and he pasted me with ease. Since you had both... do you know which bike would win in a 0-40 mph?

I own both, and with your mods you should be able to beat him. The Baja has a Strong mid-range, so you better get a better start.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]


Have fun!

Don't bet on it, my friend has a 2002 baja and I can't beat him.

needmorespeed,

Dose your friend have any mods on his 2002 baja? Dose he get you off the line or mid race?

I have seen quite a few races between a v-force and ds stock for stock in the sand and the v-force won every time

There is such a thing as imperfect driving. It happens. Time a shift wrong, or pop a wheelie and whala, everything changes.

Hi joe
My friends ds has an hmf pipe and jets which I installed. I raced him last night and lost again. I will be able to give you more info on saturday as we are both going to the dragstrip tomorrow night. I agree with 3tv if you get him on loose soil you got a chance. I have beat him several times in loose gravel and sand. As stock machines I think we were closer but that rotax really responds to mods. I am suppose to have a epi pink spring by tomorrow, if it arrives I will make runs with and without and post the results. I am not the smallest person 290lb and my friend my be 175lb, so if i have time we will switch quads and compare results.
