How is the YFZ at wheelies?
about like a XR50 from my experience.......LoL
the only one that i rode was right off the show room floor and I couldn't hardly get the front wheels to come up........that thing just hooked up and WENT........no spinning and no lifting.......just plain quick......
it is nothing like a raptor......as far as wheelies go.......

The front does tend to stay down more than a Raptor. Little longer wheelbase, maybe more centralized weight. Although my entire two minutes on a YFZ in the dunes I did manage to get the front up when I wanted to. I do notice many YFZ riders pull wheelies going uphill after they whoop up on my LT250.

My friend just got one. The YFZ also has a bit of a break in period to loosen up. It is really tight for the first 5 hours. Once it gets past that point, you can definately tell the difference. I have owned 2 YZF bikes (my friend also has owned 2 YZF bikes), and we both commented that the motor really wakes up once it has worked in.
Now, do the airbox, cam and exhaust mods, and it is a totally different animal. Good luck keeping up.......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
