THats BS abour kissing honda "Ace", look at all the ads in the magazine most are for yahama, as well as the back cover has yahama ads all of the time. DW is always praising yamaha. I personally think DW is pro-yamaha! AS for the Warrior that thing is a peice of chunk, its a slow lead sled. I road one of those the other day and i couldnt beleive how gutless they are.

Wow, you'd really hate the 300EX then!

The Warrior may be slower, but you can't kill the thing, beat it, smash it, kill it, at least the frame won't crack after hard jumps!

Good for you that you think it is a POS. I happen to love mine for trails. And it IS BS that they rate it lower then a 300ex. Oh well.....take it for what its worth I guess.

Dirtwheels does not kiss Honda *** ok. When was the last time you saw a really positive review of a Honda in that magazine? They talk about how the YFZ outdoes the 450R every chance they get. They always comment on how underpowered the Honda utilities are. In the 400-class comparisons, they make the 400EX sound like the biggest piece of crap on wheels because it doesn't have reverse and liquid-cooling. Every comparison, shootout and review is usually pretty much on par with most of the other mags.

Yo clover I got the FST 60 over big bore kit, cam, and oil cooler, this also raises the compression to 11.0:1, and I put 20s on the rear, so with this the bike has awsome low end torque so much so that it would wheelie coming out of hard turns when nailing the throttle full, almost went into a wall the first time I took it out, I wasn't ready for that, Iwas used to it stock.
