KrakeronaKrackNfail:

What's your deal. Why would I say I rode Jeremy's quad if I didn't, its not like a big deal or anything because I could order one just like it from Trinity Racing if I want to (As can anyone else). Anyways I have had some good feedback since Dirt Wheels and ATV Sport did articles on my YZF/330R powered 400EX, so I was in California for a few weeks getting exhaust pipes built to fit the YZ400/426F and TRX250R engine in the 400EX frame so others can do what I did and not have to modify a pipe, just buy one (I am also going to have billot mount kits available)... While there Cory Ellis was kind enough to let me stay with him for awhile and we practiced with Jeremy a few times. The weekend before the first Indoor Race Jeremy was practicing with the Cannondale and he let me ride it several times.

Yep I have pics of my quad and am going to get a web site set so people interested in the conversion can look at it. I don't own a Cannondale, just rode Jeremy Shells and also Cory and I were curious how my stock YZ and his Cannondale compared (Keep in mind its the '98 carb, electrical, and valves in mine which all has been improved on the YZF). So we drag raced and we were pretty much even, but I do know the YZF has more bottom end and I was spinning allot due to worn out turf tamers and Cory was running Holeshots. Plus mine was missing the main jet, it was in my 330R carb, so I was a tad rich to say the least. I didn't ride Cory's, because he runs a twist throttle and I now I couldn't have gotten an accurate feel for the bike with that.

Isn't it cool that Cannondale is number 2 and 3 in the Pro Quad standings?? I think that is pretty bad-***...

Umm... I've been corrected... they are 2 and 4 (this is an edit)

Sickman,
I didn't realize who you are. I saw your quad in the dirtwheels mag but I can't seem to find which issue is was. You know what would really look sweet? A carbon fiber 250R hood w/ scoop. You have one sweet *** quad.
