come on crobiker! i'm old! naw my son is only six and i he can barely roll my DS on level concrete. but he has had to ride back to the truck and get me some water when my YZ426 would get a stubbern spell and leave me stranded. now my daughter on the other hand is older and stronger [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

lol, u say ur old, that means ur what? 25? maybe 30? if u older than that then u ancient. j/k...my dad is old and i constatly have to move stuff around for him, but when it comes to quads, u can't keep up, then ur on ur own.

ok then i'm ancient. i always seem to have a hard time keeping up with the young ones, funny thing though is i usually catch up when i find them trying to get theirs back on the wheels further up the trail[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] naw i'm 40. and going on 35. i feel 18 untill the day after a hard ride then i feel about 90! i never turn my 4 wheeler over by accident! it is always a well planned crash.

I've seen them drag last month, there was 3 yfz and 2 ds.
in the drag (1/8miles) the yfz's won vs the stock ds but the driver was around 230lbs
but it was another story vs the 15year old kid sitting on the stage II ds, that kid won all of them exept one vs a badly built banshee.
on the obsacle course.... i must say yfz's got better result.
The stage 2 DS didn't won any of them vs a yfz... maybe with a better driver it would have been alot more closer but other than that, take off's are quicker on yfz's.
yfz(360lbs) + driver (150lbs) = 510lbs
DS(500lbs) + driver (150lbs) = 650lbs
if you ask me, both are incredible machine and drags dosn't mean anything in the real world and comparing these 2 machines is like comparing oranges with apples... some hate apples, some hates oranges, if you ask me... i like both.

I dont often make a post like this, but I just wanted to let quadqueen know that she has renewed my hope that the perfect women does exist. At 27 I have only had one true girlfriend in my life for the last 9 years, and thats my TRX250R. There has not been a women yet who could tame me other than her, however my CBR900 is a close second!! : ) However knowing that quadqueen is out there (I saw the pics, she seems like the real thing!) my hope of finding a girl who will get involved with my sport rather than b!itch about it is now reborn, at least now I know there really is one out there. Anyway I just wanted to let quadqueen know I am sure there are 1000's of others like me that have always hoped someone like her existed. Ride on quadqueen!!!! Dave
