Actually I've heard from the dealer that Cannondale said they would stand behind the Blaze and the moto. Which is pretty bold if it's true because they don't come with any waranty. They're like a 2 stroke 250 dirt bike. Since they're considered a race likely machine that's going to take wicked abuse there is no waranty. So even though they say they'll stand behind them they aren't legally bound to.

Well, a 250r IS A HONDA! And I havent had ANY problems with mine that werent ower caused! I love my R! The 45g thing includes the whole seasons costs, i read it somewhere too! That means an identical practice quad, transportation, upkeep ($$$), and everything else! That is very expensive without sponsers!

I raced it stock but I feel it needs 18inch. turf tamers on the
rear for better turning also needs nerf bars.Every thing else felt
good.

Does any one know more about the new Ohlins shocks. I agree with Chawness, They dont look like zero-preload. Are they? I also read in a mag. awhile back the Ohlins were working on some New shocks like no one else is currently building. I can't remember what they were supposed to have that no other shock does. Are these the new ones?

I saw in a magazine that they (Ohline) were working on some high speed and separate low speed dampening.
