MN - Tri-County Ride from Sunday. April 24th
Skidood,
yeah, it seemed that way. We would ride one part of the pit, and move, then they would plain leave the area. It's simply amazing how a 506 lb machine can show up the little ones. I give the guy on the Z credit. He was doing the same stuff I was, he's an Iraq vet (he has my respect), and he's also a fellow ATV (ASI) instructor.
Either way I had a great time. Oh, and for the guy who told me the Honda 450R will smoke a YFZ, I have one thing to say
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHH AHAHAHHA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah right!

Well, it looks like we have a VIDEO!
It's about 11 minutes long or so, and I thought it turned out pretty well ... it's encoding to DIVX right now, and I will also be exporting to MPEG-2 to make some DVDs...
Don't freak Dave, but it's probably going to be 90MB or so for the DIVX version, but we are also talking about 720 x 480 video resolution here. I will be working on making lower bandwidth versions hopefully tomorrow night. I will also get the high quality version uploaded, and I'll post a link for you folks to download it when it's ready to go...

I may be there, but it pretty much depends on how my shoulder does. I still can't lift too much of anything of it, so we'll play it by ear...
The video has been uploaded!
Head out to http://spaces.msn.com/members/bryguy, and select the version you want to download. I have 3 versions...
- The DIVX Version (I HIGHLY Recommend this version if you have Broadband) .. 105.89 Megabytes, 720x480. You must have the DivX Codec installed on your computer to play this file. If you don't have it, you can download it by clicking here.
- A Windows Media Player version for Broadband (Try this if you don't want to download DIVX or have the big download, but not nearly as good of quality) - 21.50 Megabytes
- Dial-Up Version for Windows Media Player (Otherwise known as the "Nose pressed to screen, IS THAT ME?" quality) -- 5.42 Megabytes
Again, you can download the video at http://spaces.msn.com/members/bryguy.
Please, right-click on the links and choose Save Target As... to save some of my bandwidth, if you will.
Let me know how you enjoy it!

Sup Guys..
Sure wish me and my bro could have been up there with u.
But anyways.. maybe some other time..
And as far as the 450r beating the YFZ...
Dirtwheels tested the two..
The 450r was just about a Quad length behind when racing on Loose dirt and sand.. but as soon as they hit hard packed dirt.. of course the YFZ wasted the 450r.
BOth are good machines.. but in this article.. they didnt post what type of tires, exhauts, etc where on the two. so u wuould assume stock?
Plus both are great machines... and i know the Honda is built to last.. and the YFZ is built to run hard
Honda has a great rep for building depenable machines.. heck they still got 3 wheelers and other old old school things out running.
Plus like its been said.. Amatures talk Speed.. Pros talk Handling.
Its still got alot to do with the Rider.
Maybe the 450r rider is still new and getting used to his machine.. u never know.
Anyway would that YFZ450 stand a chance against the Raptor660?
If so.. theres a prime example of rider ability. My brother. Matt who is just 17, got his first quad.. a 02 Raptor 660..
Hes just learning.. so if you were to ride with him.. of course youd smoke him..
I smoke him and i just have a 250ex.
But my hat's off to u all.. Great Video...
You will have to come to the Track/Field here in alex and make another video.
Till we meet again. Peace out
