The first one is of the new YFZ450 going up choke cherry. The second one is my 12 year old on my MBRP piped blue Raptor with spark arrestor installed, (Slows it down some but it is quieter that way, we just installed the spark arrestor before we went on this ride. I'll post another video of him going up the hill without the arrestor the difference in speed is noticable, to me anyway) the third one is of me on my mild 686 chasing down from behind the YFZ. He was going down the hill so I followed, he made the turn before me and got a good 10' + head start, the video picks up after we made our turns at the bottom. The last one is of some cool things I saw at Choke cherry that day. Including a 250R?? on Nos being clocked at 66mph up choke cherry.

Videos soon to come. Me and my 686 climbing the face of Devils dune. My brother and his stage 3 DS climbing the face of Devils dune. Possibly me, my 12 year old son and my brother racing up the face of Devils dune. A piped 400ex with my 12 year old son on it going up choke cherry and the face of devils dune. Did he make it? Yes. And with sand shark paddles to boot. My sons and my brother getting some air at Little sahara Utah and St Anthonys. My 12 year old going up some of the fingers at Sand mountain Utah on the piped Raptor. And possibly even what it looks like at the top of Choke Cherry during a wind/sand storm.

Awesome videos wshrdskin.

 

Hey,
cool videos..Was the YFZ modded at all(pipe,removed baffle,vented airbox etc) or was it bone stock?? Thanks.

 

great vids man... looks like the yfz pulls hard.

 

Thanks man!

My wife and I just watched your video's. Kinda cool since we are putting her quad together with basically the same set-up as yours and a female riding friend of ours has the Y (as we call it).

The guy said it was stock. He may or may not have had the lid removed and rejetted for St Anthonys altitude.

Duneme,
Your wife is gonna like the way her Raptor runs. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I know I do.

 

Hey wshrdskin - what did that crotch rocket quad have for a motor ? 66 mph up choke cherry is pretty fast isnt it?(never been there)

 

Great vids, watching you all play in all those sand dunes makes me jealous. All we have around here are small hills (30-60ft) that are covered in ruts, stumps, and roots[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img], I definitly need to make a trip to the west coast for some riding[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

I should have paid more attention to it but, my son is the one that says it was a 250R. Obviously not stock. He had 2 blue bottles on it. 66mph is what the guy with a radar gun at the top was saying he did. The videos don't show the steepness of the hill. I don't know why but they don't. The hill is almost as steep as sand will pile up before sliding back down. The areas off to the left and right side of the main hill do exactly that. 66 mph is flying up this hill. Thats almost as fast as Banshee chick and Harrys Blue legend go up a slightly elevated Oldsmobile hill at Glamis. I'd say 66mph hauling azz. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Ok I got it now. I thought it was the streetbike quad doing 66mph. But hell ya Id say thats fast up a hill of that steepness. Videos never show the steepness of hills, it sucks. Anyway, keep the videos coming
