    I HAVE beaten a heavily modded YFZ on dirt with my 310 Z. Multiple runs. Not by much, but a good bike length every time.

    And this was more then a bolt on bike, and yes the kid knew how to ride it, and my Z is mildly ported.

    If you think about it for a minute I bet you'll remember I left and we never got to play in the field. Just on the blacktop, only once or twice, then i left to pickup food with Derrick and Jason.

    I tip my hat to you on the rider skill because you're definitely a better rider but I don't think we settled if that 450r can touch a 500. I know I was smoking craigs buddies modded ltz450.

    I also know you owned the 500 Tim has now so you should know the 500 vs the 450 from experience, but at the same time I think I remember pulling away from Tim's 500 the last time we got to play so once again I don't think it's settled yet.

    Hopefully next time we get to play I should have the new mx bike done and our gearing should be closer. Mine was definitely geared way too tall to realistically compare power.

    Oh and since I'm on this kick asking for a tongue lashing I will also add that my 500 is physically restricted. Derrick can confirm that my throttle only opens 3/4 of the way because I'm running a 400ex throttle.

    We'll play again. :-P

    Okay, let me have it, I'm sure I'm gonna get it now.

    Hey 3 leg, Did you happen to notice that you were maybe 1 bike length ahead when you turned around???? I don't want to stir up and Dog do, but If my 1 wheel stayed down you would have seen that your 12 tooth front sprocket, and heavier front end was all that got you out front!!!! You also let off as soon as you could so you would not get passed. I'm down for another run at that 50 HP to the rear wheels any time. This time I'll be sure we have a set mark to race to HE HE. Your compairing apple's to oranges my friend. Your geared to about 40 MPH and thats It, along with the gearing and being on pavement with a heavier front end. Just as louis and I got rolling, you let off. What kinda race Is that Doggy. My motor Is Stock other than the cam. So put that on your leash and walk It HA HA HA, I love you man.

    I have video,quite a few vids of my 310Z beating alot of 450s......

    Including Derricks 450 tri-z trike at trikefest 07...Now granted,Derrick wasnt riding it,But I think Nate Knows how to ride well enough, that is wasnt rider.

    I would suggest stop trying cause most likely it won't happen.

    Not trying to be negative here - just realistic.

    You are trying to put a thousand dollar paint job on a hundred dollar car!
