Gets Down & Dirty (Score: +1)

Power:

Power is grab the handle bars and pray that you are far enough forward that the front wheel does not pop up on you suddenly. When the power valve, timing and jetting is all on point, this bike is hands down the fastest out there. Even beats my CR500, barely.

Ergonomics:

It feels like good over all but my one complaint is that the shifter is too short and I have not been able to locate a longer one. I think it is made for the guys with short man syndrome meanign small feet guys.

Suspension, Front:

OK

Suspension, Rear:

OK

Handling:

It feels like a wide bike that has some mass to it compared to the CR 500 and other 250 2-stroke models. Dont get me wrong the feel is awsome since it seems to track well and have a great center of gravity. I prefer this bike on straighter trails than sharp cornered ones.

Brakes:

Good

Comments:

Good bike adn totally diferent that the CR500. Wish they still made a 500 2stroke and anyone that says that the 450 4-stroke compares they are full of Sh_t.
