It's been several years since I've owned a 5 hundy. Just picked up an immaculate '01. Fresh ride report form Comp Edge. Need to raise the fork oil level, maybe some stiffer springs. Other than that this beast is a sweetheart, a very scary sweatheart.
Most noteable is how f-ing hard the bitch is to ride compared to my crf 450. But we all know that. It's lighter and turns better but it's so explosive it makes it difficult (in a sick fun sort of way).
I'll be looking forward to hooking up on some organized rides/get togethers etc. This bike is best suited to the occasional desert blast or certain perfect track conditions just for the novelty of it.
Another new check in from OC
