What the hell set ups are these guys running??!! I swear I seen 2 yami 450's out in Gordons well over Pres. weekend at freeway hill just spankin EVERYTHING that touched the hill. Ive never seen a 4 stroke so damn fast. Made me think about sellin the banshee and gettin one. I convieniently left my bike at home that trip to take my buddies new sandrail out for its virgin run. Who knows...maybe I would have joined the ranks of the defeated bikes at the hill that weekend. If anyone else was there and seen or knows these guys..ask em for me would ya? One was all black w/ black wheels and the other was white w/ red.

If they were spanking everything, chances are they had some fairly serious internal mods done (piston, big bore, head reworked, etc). Some of em,are also running alcohol.
YFZ tech has some pretty fast members who go there often. Could be one of them??

They could've been on the bottle...but they looked to be stock...other than aftermarket pipes. they were running the hill for an awful long time to be using NOS tho...we were there for about an hour or so and these guys were runnin pretty much the entire time we were there. No suspension mods...no swingarms...looked like stock bikes. Maybe all the other bikes were just really slow that day ? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
