After butchering my brand new tube yesterday trying to put the new MX33 on the YZ, I wasn't sure how the day at the track was gonna go today. I ended up patching the old tube and man what a difference that new front tire makes.
Like a different bike.
I cleared 4 jumps today for the first time, and was able to lay that thing over in the corners.
Going back for more tomorrow.

Also, brought the kid with and he said his 125 was slow. So I took it for a few laps. Damn that thing is fun! It's so light.
But it was rather sluggish down low, so I pulled into the pits and dropped the needle one position. Went to take it out for some more thrashing, and before I even made it onto the track the throttle cable broke .

My 250 doesn't feel so sluggish. Are 125's more susceptible to temperature changes? It was 100 degrees out there...

[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 225161, member: 3959"] After butchering my brand new tube yesterday trying to put the new MX33 on the YZ, I wasn't sure how the day at the track was gonna go today. I ended up patching the old tube and man what a difference that new front tire makes. Like a different bike.

So I took it for a few laps. Damn that thing is fun! It's so light. But it was rather sluggish down low, so I pulled into the pits and dropped the needle one position. Went to take it out for some more thrashing, and before I even made it onto the track the throttle cable broke :thumbsdown:. My 250 doesn't feel so sluggish.
