This is me on my tri-z in oct 2004. This was the day before I left for IRAQ. I had just thrown it back together quick after getting the phase 2 wrench report done to it. I wanted to get 1 last ride in. I had some local guy do the work and it wound up running like a oversized blender. For those of you that can tune an engine by ear, you can hear how the work came out. Had absolutely NO low end. The clip where I am jumping the tabletop is where you can see it best. I had to go through some deep leaves that were on the track(Homemade track) and it was bogging. I couldn't get enough power out of the one turn to clear that tabletop and it took me like 6 tries to get the feel of the powerband to be able to clear the big tabletop. Its about a 30 or 35 footer. I had no interest in hitting any other jumps that day especially with the bike running like crap. I don't know why I was kicking my leg out around turns, I was riding my friends honda cr on there previoulsy, maybe that was it. I have since dismanteled the motor. I think I gave that cylinder to Sprock racing for an exchange on a big bore. There is about 10min of video if you can watch it that long. I had to split it up into 2 parts. Its a bit repetitve, like I said I was only hitting the table top. The jumps got much better toward the end when I was more used to the crap powerband. Anyway, enjoy. Also please excuse the crappy camera man. No laughing at my glasses either
