[QUOTE="the Eel, post: 123148, member: 19952"] I have the opportunity to get an incredible deal on a brand new 2001 YZ 426F - about $1,200 below list !!!! I recently took a spin on one and fell completely in love with the powerband. However, I keep hearing that it's too much bike for trail riding or enduros. I do mostly desert style enduros but there's some tight stuff in there from time to time. I feel that the responsive powerband and the 3-stroke like power of the bike would actually be a benefit in gnarly trails, and the bike only weighs a few pounds more than my XR 250. I'm pretty much a novice rider at 5'11" and 165 lbs. What are your experiences with this bike in the woods or in enduros ? I can get a fairly quiet spark arrestor end cap for pretty cheap and would add a flywheel weight and gear it down. To buy this is a bit of a whim but the price is incredible - I just wonder whether or not I'll wind up like a lot of the other YZ 426F owners who sell the bike shortly after buying it 'cause they felt it was too powerful or couldn't get the hang of starting it. What does everyone think ? [/QUOTE]
