Default Real world. YFZ450 against bikes

Here's my post from last weekend. The MX track only had 2 whoops on the entire thing. The rest stands as a YFZ doing very well. In a drag race, the quad beat the bikes on packed starting areas.

"I watched some 40 year old guy on a YFZ racing MX today, passing bike after bike after bike. Man this guy could ride. I never saw one single bike or quad pass him. My jaw was on the floor. I never would have through it was possible. I thought this months Dirt Wheels shootout where the paired the YFZ against the YZ was another one of their tall tales. With a great rider, the YFZ can do great things.

Also, drag raced my YFZ against everything and anything. No quads really showed up except my friend on his Z400 (434).
I beat them 4-5 at a pack, never lost once. Must have beat 50 bikes up through 4th gear. All makes and models. There was a KTM 250 there that was super fast and gave me a real good race, big guy too.
All of this racing was on the take-off area for starting the MX track. Kinda loamy, but showed what the YFZ can do on an MX start. First into turn one every time. "
