Message: [QUOTE="KX250Dad, post: 1153287, member: 74039"] Thanks to all of you on this post, especially lwsmithjr and Mr.Gorr. After several discussions with Mr.Gorr and lwsmithr I did send my son's YZ125 to Eric and he did in deed have it returned to me as promised as a 144 in time for an AX race. My son raced his first "B" class at the AX and it was actually pretty cool being the only 2T. Prior the race the comments from a few of the 250F piolts were a bit disturbing which is typical of those my stuff is better than your stuff fellows, afterwards the 144 seemed to be a conversation piece (in a good way). Nope didn't win... didn't even podium, but both rider and bike preformance were what I would consider impressive. Not one 250F pulled away, admittedly the 144 didn't close on the long straight (by AX standards) either. Point was the race was rider skill and the technologies appeared to me to be somewhat equal and that's what I was hoping to see from the 144. All I can say at this time is the 144 appears to have been monies well spent... The outdoor MX should prove interesting and perhaps most importantly my son no longer feels disadvantaged being on a 2 stroke. Thanks again men........ [/QUOTE]
