Here we go again WORCS Rnd 5 and I am stoked to be able to race again on the famous Glen Helen track. Last year I was on my 2021 Yamaha YZ250f and I just didn’t have enough power because of my size to hit the straight-away at a top speed. The 2-stroke bikes were whipping by me like I was stuck in mud. Not this year, baby. Got my 2022 Yamaha YZ450f (a great deal from Josh at Karl Malone Powersports in Hailey, Idaho, with FASST Co Flexx Bars (10 Degree Moto, Standard 92mm tall, 31″ wide), new FASST Co Impact Foot Pegs with blue studs, new TUSK tires, front and back (from Rocky Mountain ATV in Payson), new Tusk aluminum throttle tube with bearing, new Pro-Taper Pillowtop Grips,Ride Engineering Triple Clamps, running my FMF Exhaust System, riding on a custom suspension job by MotoXperts and seeing the track, keeping the mud out of my eyes with my FlowVision Goggles – and fueled by VP 110 Racing Fuel, oh yeah; I’m ready.
I’ll be posting results and photos of this great racing adventure next week.
