which bike??? help me.....

[matthunter]

hey guys, i found a cr80 and a yz80. The yz80 has a 100cc kit in it right now the yz is a 2001 and the cr is a 2000. they are both $2,000. i have a ttr-125L right now but i just want somthin diffrent like a 2 stroke. i ride trails and mx alot. i want somthin with a good suspension and somthin i can race. if you can tell me which one is a better buy for what i use them for. thanks, Matt

the yz!!!

really, im not raggin on anyone, but stock, the yz motor is more powerful. i dont know from experience, but my friends who race tell me this. thats the reason im trying to get a yz125 instead of a cr. i also considered kx but they said the yz would win in a straight drag race, but NOTHING handles like a kx. i am a power freak.

anyway, the yz is newer, has LOTS more power, (100 kit) and.... yeah, thats it. ;)

hope i helped

p.s. did your ttr do good in the water? with the holes in the airbox anyway.

 

[matthunter]

yea my ttr did fine in water i have the whole top of the airbox cut out and i still take it in water just not to deep and it does great

when you cut out the top of the TTR airbox do you have to get new jetting to compensate for the increased air intake?

 

[matthunter]

no u dont need new jettings.....enless u live where its always really hot....but i live in ohio and out temperature stays fairly good not any higher then 85-90 in the summer and my bike still does really good so i didnt need new jets.

 

[bluerider125]

well its a good idea to anyway, but right now its 98 or so, and i still havent rejetted. i need to, tho, cuz i have to stop riding every 20 minutes or so and sprinkle the head w/water until it cools down. if i dont the engine is about as powerful as my sister's 90. :eek: p.s. i know this is off the topic but will sprinkling water on the head/crankase/headpipe screw anything up?

 

[matthunter]

well, i dont know about the sprinkler thing.....but i dont think anything will happen becuz if u ever say enduro riders they ride in hot weather then cross a big crick and in the previous ages i havnt heard of water screwing up anything all it does is cool your bike down pretty quick which is what u want if ur in hot weather i think so i would just keep doing it if u like to ride when ur sweating like crazy (i dont like to)

"...through a crick...."

i was just wondering if it would warp or crack anything...
