The tecate chassis was infamous for its poor A-arm geometry and forward posititioed pilots comparartment. Its handling is often compared to a
ford Econoline van with a nirto-burning 1500 horse power engine.IN other words there is alot of bump steer and the back is hard to hook up.It couldnt match the honda or suzuki in corners
and to prove a moot point was only able to land one national victory of note during its. When it ran , the tecate also suffered constant ignition faliures If the stator didnt crap out the magnets would eventually fly off the rotor
Its quiet obvios why u never see anymore tecates most were driven to the top of a high ridge and pushed off with a victorios whoop

What? The Tecate-4? Man, it's hard to believe that it had that much problems considering how much the owners love them.
