Default New Kenz motor ran great last night

Took the new bike out Glamis last night, P l a n et sand host a night race complete with lights from dusk until 4am today and my bike half hilled 3/4 of all the four strokes and beat almost every banshee I ran except for the full on drag banshees with CPI drag pipes. I cannot say enough about how great the new bike ran and cant wait for the new season to start [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Right on, Sounds fast. Thats cool that they had night races. What other thumpers were out there that you mopped? Have you lightened any rotating mass or tried 22 inch paddles on your raptor? What compression are your running? Did Kenz build your motor for racing or all around peformance? Sounds like she'll be fast.

Congratulations on those stunning radar numbers, 43.7 mph on a hill where home brew Raptors are running 54 mph [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

UBET, why do spout misimformation and stir the pot ? You know damn well what kind of MPH that motor is running but because some noob shot a 450 you assume it was my bike,your trully pathetic. What wrong with saying hey GJ , lets GT and race sometime, now all you have done is boxed yourself into the internet corner, once my bike delivers the MASSIVE beatdown on your bike you discover how many MPH and how much embarassment you have caused you, your builder and they rest of your internet haters.

What up with the mph, sounds low to me. My 230 lb azz did 59mph on nos at Glamis. But when the sand is wet it does robb some mph. That just cant be right for a 70 hp bike comming off a concervative dyno like Kenz. If you didnt radar your own bike with a buddy I wouldnt call that 43 mph as a confirmed number.

I agree but some people who have are "HP" challenged will try to discredit anything that is a threat to them.

happy to hear it.
kenz cycle does some extremely good work. Especially on the all around sand banshees. Some serious machines have come out of that shop. And I imagine your two quads are some of them.

Thanks. I think my Kenz bikes are respectable builds and thats what I wanted, theres faster Kenz banshees and raptors no doubt but I wanted all around bikes that could trail ride or race the hill with.

I love to race no doubt but I absolutly hate sitting at the hill all day just to race, I would rather go on a allout dune ride from the washes in Glamis to Olds,race, dune to China Wall,back to Olds, and off to camp.

Thats a perfect dune ride as far as Im concerned.
