Default biggest warrior jump??

When I was 14, and about 100lbs lighter. We found a hill in the river bottoms that you could catch some mad air, thing was you went basically straight up and then down when ramping. Corn field a few feet from landing spot, enough room to turn around without hurting the corn.

Hill measured 27 feet from base to top. Everybody ramped this thing after we told them about it. I cleared 10 feet high and 5 to 6 rows in the corn field was stepped off at 20 some feet (give or take). No the landing was not soft to no means, but the rush I got after doing that was intense. I have got a picture of where I landed on Polaroid and the hill-jump. I remember it like it was yesterday.

I wouldn't recommend racing any warrior on an mx track because of a lot of the reasons that have already been stated in this thread. Its heavy, bad shocks, short wheelbase, and not enough power, my friend has warrior and he is no where near me when we do mx. And i'm not just saying this because i'm a suzuki fanatic because I used to own a blaster so I like yamaha too, but I"d save yourself some time and trouble and sell the warrior and get something that can handle a full mx season.

The most air I ever got off my old warrior was me thowin a leg over the seat, must have cleared it by a foot or so. Too old and the wife had me cut my nuts off after getting her pregnant with twins. It sure is fun watching you maniacs go for big air.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Well put some smaller tires on it and change the sprockets that'll give it some power!

speedy2222, go to www.warriorzone.vze.com and go to pictures page and check out some of those mx warriors. there is one there that is blue and is pretty sweetly modified for mx. if you cant find it, email me and i can send it tonight when i get home to my own computer. thatll give you and idea of what tpo shoot for. BTW, id go with some elka shocks, or works, save your money, the raptor shocks will blow before the elkas or works ones will.[ hope it helps.
