Hey guys, havn't been on recently. Got a job and with that, school, and riding I just have been so busy! Finally got the 450 back together, here are some pics.

[<TX>TorkiT]

The 450 turned out real nice. What do your yellow backgrounds mean? I see everyone in your sig pic is running yellow plates too. I am just curious.

[foreman52]

The Yellow plates stand for Intermediate. Down where your from it would be called MX2 B, I believe.

[Mxer721]

Here, it is called like 250 B

But I'm only in 250 C

I convinced my mom to take me racing this weekend.
It was a lot more expensive than I thought!
$80 entrance fee
$120 for all of my races
Plus gas, bike stuff, food
Luckily I live ten minutes away and didn't have to pay overnight fees!
This was only my second race of the year. Haha. Next race is in two weeks!
I was the only 125 in my class
But not the only two stroke! There were about 3 250t's and a Ktm150
18 total racers

I'll post a video up in the video section

Here are a few pics





You can't really tell, but I'm the one in front here







Do you guys think I should get a 250 2t to help me keep up with the competition?

[foreman52]

I'd get a 250f honestly. The 250 2 strokes have alot of snap to them and an insaine amount of power. But everyone has different styles, some people like there bikes like that, unlike me I love to be on the rev limiter as you seen in my videos. If I was you i'd test one out first before you bought one. I know you want to keep the 2 stroke alive, and when I was on a 125 I said I would never go to a 4-stroke...I jumped on one, loved it and would probably not buy a 2 stroke again (to compete) I still wish I had one just to rip around and play on.

I know everyone here has probably heard this a million times, but its not the bike its the rider. Yes the bike deffiently helps and will make you somewhat quicker, but its all on the desire of the rider. Are MX2 class can clean the MX1 class here with our eyes shut.

Anyway, thats my 2 cents. Hope it helps out somewhat.


First ride on the 450.

[Mxer721]

Well I tested out my cousins 250f and they are just no for me. They lose a lot of power in the top end, and I love the clutch. I just keep my bike in the powerband and its always got power, but when I tried it out on the trails, the 250f just lost a ton of power in the top end. It still had more power than my 125 but thats because it has twice the displacement. I think if I get a 250 2t (which is legal in the class i race in) I will have plenty of power.

[<TX>TorkiT]

I have not been riding lately but I installed the 2010 Factory Honda graphics, seat cover, black fork guards, black Renthal sprocket, red chain slider and guide, and cycra front fender. Now I have will replace the top end with genuine parts.

[foreman52]

Looking good Tork!

[Mxer721]

you need a factory pipe man. Then it will be perfect... Or you could sell it to me ;D

[DiRT*ProCircuit*625]

Awesome pics there guys. Imma huge zooki fan but mxer and torkit, them bikes are 2strokes. I will always be a fan of that. Lol. Mxer keep it as the 125 and just keep that humiliation coming on then fourstrokes. Believe me I think you'll be happier later. Lol

Torkit, you do need a pipe brother. I got a platinum2 pipe for mine a while back and it was only $50. You should be able to find what you want for cheap... manny and I are talking of going to each others states and doing some riding soon. I wanna head out for a texas sx round. If I do man we 3 gotta ride. Us 2strokes whoopin on mannys 450..... priceless. Lol.
