yak651 said: (quoted from post at 10:09:36 08/13/09) I'm pretty light (5'6", 145 lbs) so I always had 125's, this year I picked up a YZF250 and having some fun on it. I still try to ride at least once a week (doesn't always happen) and raced Vet B against some of the young guys (I'm almost 40, the class is for those over 30) over memorial day weekend at a fun track in northern WI to see if i still had it and managed to get 2nd overall. Exceeded my expectations, so I've managed to find an excuse not to race anymore this year so I can go out on a high note!
:D
Hey yak,
I did an awful lot of racing. Did a bunch of it in the Vet B class. Most of it was in Tn and Virgina with a younger buddy. I raced up till i was 46. I found that u start losing a step and when you get just a split second behind the bike , no good starts to happen. So i just slow down and enjoy the ride now.
We used to have 30 of us on the line. A's and B's together . Alot of fun!!!
You will love that 250F , that is one sweet machine. Keep riding man!!
I still putt around on my xr 400.
Now my buddy is 35 and i was that age when i met him. He was pretty fast for a young punk. Funny how time flys by.
Now ya got me wanting to find a nice 120ft double just to get the heart pumping again.
