I'm Back!

Well holy frig, its about time theres a Motard forum on here! Its been 2 years since I've been on the site and 3 since I sold the R1! Glad to see everything is going well here, and glad to see alot of people in Supermoto! If anyone needs any help with anything, im no expert, but i've been racing full time with this for a while now and learned a few tricks. Anyways, Im glad to be back on here! Cheers

Cool - Chad AKA Gawarrior has a 06 YZ450 SM here.. Me & Jeff has 06 WR450s - Glad to see a full timer here.. What ya done to the bike ? Later - Mike

Ya, I got the itch and got my 426 into it, then a new 06 last year. As for mods.... Crank Lightened, ploished and balanced Port and polish High comp piston (need to run race fuel) Full Dr.D exhaust New airbox, drilled out holes with K&N Lowered 1 3/4 front and rear (Burkhart Graves Spec) 17" Excel's, 5" in the mail as I type Hole Shot device Sunline hot start Plus the regular small stuff. New white plastics and custom white camo graphics. Thats about it i think. Once I get the new plastics on it, I'll post a few pictures. Cheers!

do you have any pics of your bike??? I have a KTM 525SMR and a CRF450R motard. Your bike sounds great.:thumbup

Here's some pics of the completed project! Just need to break the motor in and Im good to go!

Bet that is one fast YZ with the hidden weapons.. Does motor mods like port & polish / after market cylinder heads (athena overbore) / stroker kits limit you in what races you can enter ?

Our regional rounds only have Open Supermoto now, so run what ya brung! Mine is actually still a 450cc, so im able to run in 450 class. With the crank balanced and lightened, its able to run down KTM560's on the straights no problem!

Nice. :thumbup How do you like the Acerbis guards? I'm looking for a good set, but want to stay away from any of the flex kind. It looks like those are the solid bar style, which is what I'm after. Will be MX/trail only use though.

I love the Acerbis! They are the only ones I've had that never broke. These ones are the supermoto ones. You can see the bar is more square to accommodate larger master cylinders and hydraulic clutches. With these, the plastic is replaceable as well, which makes it good for updated damaged or color changes.

very sweet bike! I hope to have pics of my wr up next week.

Thanks!
