RC rides the 450

Here is a vid from the good guys over at Transworld motocross


RC ON THE PIG



He looks ok for only riding for four days.

Are those bumble bees I hear in the background?
I'll take half that speed please.

 

[nephron]

Does it seem like he's searching for the right gear? I noticed he's rolling through a majority of the turns, where he used to keep his 250 pinned.

and he still has that double blip on the jumps like hes always cleaning the motor out

I agree, he definitely is not charging into the corners the way he does on the 250, yet. He does get through that one 180deg. left pretty good though. I'm sure he is not full speed on that thing yet. I have a feeling its going to be a long summer for the rest of the 250 class. RC is going to shut up a lot of people around here. LOL!


I would be happy with half of that speed too.

A quater of that speed would win alot of local races.

Still trying to figure this out. :think:

Exaggaration.

Sarcasm.

Still trying to figure this out. :think:

.25 X speed = 4 X lap times

You're welcome.

:)

Still baffled Okiewan?!

Maybe RC is in training to become a pro-practice rider- hes got the right bike for it now! :)

Joking aside, i dont think there are going to be many two-strokes out there at all this summer- all the yammies are on them, and you can tell Honda are desparate to have their 450F win a title.

I wonder if we will see the Suzuki and Kawi 450Fs stateside this year, KTM have a 250F but i dont think they can run it- the AMA production rule is lame if you ask me.
