Theres an old southern saying "those who can, DO; those who can't, teach or sale". From my experience that is pretty much true. Maybe it's not in your case but you're coming off as being a cocky, brand loyal (zuki), spoiled brat. People post their opinions and you call your opinion fact. You said your info came from someone who used to test for zuki then you said he would go for the invitational testing. Thats very common among dealers aint it?

I don't mean to bash ya man, but don't act like we're stupid!
 
From that last post Kreed...i will say that i am semi brand loyal...to all brands. If that means anything. Another thing, i do sale, i do teach and i DO paint and everything to do with paint and body as well as auto parts. I am cocky, probably shouldnt be but i am a little cocky. Last but not least, I am not spoiled, i am 18 years old, i BOUGHT a 2001 Dodge 2500 with the HD package, single cab long bed 2wd with a 360, a 2005 Suzuki LE C50 Boulevard with pipes, my 04' KFX700 with at least 2k in mods, and i paid cash for my 88' Warrior. Thats just to give you an idea of what i buy ok, i took a loan for my truck, and my bike. The KFX700 is financed through Kawasaki Retail Services. I work for everything i own and i dont take hand outs, if i own it i take care of it, cause its my hard earned money. No i am not a suit wearing little bitch i wear a shirt with my name on it from aramark, i do manual labor as well when the slack needs to be taken up a little. Something lesser americans forget about.

lol, its funny how someone posts a topic, and it always ends up totally different conversation, lmao.
 
how about this, EVERYONE STFU, and wait till the quad comes out. Nobody knows for sure about what its gonna be like, it could be a a giant douche with a 450 motor on it....we dont know for sure, so just wait and see.
 
wow guys if this quad comes out and blows balls
some of you are gonna be apoligizing!!!!! ill just wait and see cuz i love my yami
 
ya, alot of people have such strong feelings about it (im not targeting anyone in particular) and it isnt even out yet, it isnt worth argueing, and internet argueing at that. LOL, it kinda makes me laugh.
 
if that pic is real im sure they'll show it in dirtwheels when it comes out tomorrow. i'll let the real professionals tell me what it's like

The YFZ is lighter and has a larger stroke and 5 valves. All and all they built a nice quad but it will be down to rider! I also wouldnt buy one for the next 3 years anyway with EFI on there (let people work out the bugs with EFI and the new bike itself).
 
Amen Death. Never buy the first model year of anything. I am speaking from experience, I am an engineer in research and development. Trust me, there is a lot of **** that gets out and it shouldn't.
 
it looks like they lowered it a lil bit from the1st piics 2 the pics on the zuki site
 
yea i wouldnt buy one right away ethier with all the bugs it will prob have
 
thats a dumb idea... normal people arnt gonna by somethin they gotta put race gas in... i thought the yfz 11.4:1 compression was high
 
its gonna cost you more to pay for the gas to fill it up then the actull payments for it
 
The 450r has the same 12:0-1 compression ratio.

General rule is anything over 12.5:1 is race gas. I'm running 12.1:1 on a minimum of 93 (sometimes Sunoco 94 or some toulene/xylene mix). With anything under 93 I had some minor detonation above 8k rpms. I know of a lot of people running pump gas with CR's around 12:1.
