[QUOTE="TRW Motorsport, post: 1389876, member: 119644"] Hello to all, I will start by saying that I am 18 years old and just purchased a 2003 YZ85. I am not sure on how much time the piston has but am going to throw a top end in just for good measure. The bike has all the original jetting, tires, everything so I dont think the bike was ever raced. The tires even look pretty descent. First things first: Shifting, I will mostly be using this bike as a pit bike at my car races but do intend to track it sometime in the future. I have been using the clutch for up and down shifting, is this the best choice? I know you can get by without using it but I dont want to be replacing dogs every other race... Secondly, I am 145 pounds and ride an 85, If I do track it, will I be too heavy for the suspension? I have never done MX so wont be flying the thing, just having fun and learning something new.... Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks, [/QUOTE]
