Now that we know exactly where to go to talk about the new machine. I would like to know if the new ride is all that. How fast? How much power compare to others that are bone stock? Does it blow you away? Should I take out a second mortgage to get one? These are the things that I think about.

I will be the first to reply. Had it for sometime now, it the first one sold #005. I didn't ride it this weekend my son did and I rode my 01 4x4 sc500. He has a shee with mods that he rides most of the time.

RacerJim,
That was kinda vague. Can you tell us what your son thinks of it? Does it compare to his Shee in power and speed? What do you think of it?

If you read all the things RacerJim has said, he always seems to be vague. He does not answer many questions and I think that as the owner of the first retailed machine, he would be eager to tell people what they wanted to know. Maybe he should post a pic of him on his new FX, just so we know he is not blowing smoke. Not calling him a liar, but it just seems all too odd. Read his other posts and you'll see what I mean.

Shumdit you are right I'am very vague. You should look up my pass posts starting about 7 8 weeks ago. I was giving people lots of imformation. But I can't stand the BS replys. I get sick over the smart a** that don't know there butt from a hole in there head. I even called one out to race but that was a no show. I was glad because the weather was so bad!
We will see what happens now. Most of the racing i have done because of the weather has been on flat (new!) black top roads. I live in a township that don't have any cops, so we drag race all the time. 8th, 1/4, 100yd or top speed. I raced the FX and 01 500sc this weekend me on the 500 my son on the FX, 100yd. The FX hit the 100yd mark the sc was just over the 50yd mark. The sc is not stock. Air box mods, k&n, clutch kit, muffler.
2 weeks ago me on the FX my son on his shee (shee has lots of mods). Played around a few times I was always 2or3 yds ahead. By the way I'am 50 pounds more then he is.
5 weeks ago draged a stock ds. 1/4 mile jumped me out of the hole(better rider). had him at the end by 10,12 yds.
Out of tme now, off to work.

Hondakid,

If you cant get those answers from what he just said, you must be illiterate!

This is exactly what he is talking about!

I agreed with your post about can't he read! But before I said anything I checked the post date/time. Racer responded to above post 2 days later. Meaning they are out of sequence.
