Thanks John! I'm getting my track re-done within the next week or two, I'll post pics when it's done. Maybe we can do a Vet/Husky ride day at my place?
LOL at 51 I am old enough to be a "vet" but I am way to slow. I just got back into dirt bikes the past few years and man have things changed since the seventies! Mostly me I might add but boy is it FUN!
Well I'm back at it. I had to take a couple weeks off as I got hit with broncitis. Nasty stuff. If any of you have heard of Trevor Vines (former Yamaha factory freestyler) he runs a track called TV Land where I raced this past Sunday in the CRA series. There were 28 guys in 40+! After a terrible start I worked my way up to 3rd and was the only guy in my class airing out the big triple. Being off the bike way too long took affect as arm pump set in and I stalled the big Husky in a corner on the last lap letting too many guys pass me while trying to get it to lit. I ended up 11th first moto but was happy to run up front before my costly mistake. The second moto faired about as good as the first and I ended up 10th overall on the day.[/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG]
Only eight guys in my class this past friday night but it was a battle! I was second off the line and battled with Jay (611) for the entire moto. I blew a corner and he snuck under me for the win. The next moto I holeshotted and left em! I had a 10 second lead by the last lap. Going around a 3rd gear rutted sweeper I changed lines only to catch the rear wheel on a kicker and she stopped dead in her tracks! Ughhh!! I tried in vane to get her fired back up. First I put it in nuetral, then reached down for the hot start. Kicked and kicked and kicked. There went Jay and two more guys while I was still kicking. I finally got it started and ended up 4th in the second moto. 2-4 for 3rd overall isn't too bad. This is the 2nd race in two weeks where I've stalled the bike in 3rd gear in a left hand corner. I need two things. A bar mounted hot start and an auto clutch! Maybe if I was in a little better shape and didn't get tired I wouldn't have made those costly mistakes. Oh well, still had a great time....can hardly wait for this weekend![/IMG]
Dang stall..but still great results. My 07 450R did the stall thing I upped the idle and almost stoped the stalls. Husky hole shot I love it! Good luck this weekend.
Ive stalled my 450 SMR in a few dirt sections now, all I have to do is find neutral and the magic button tho
