put my xy160 up against some big four bangers yesterday out the bush.. sand rock muddy steep inclines, was a real mixture of terain with long straights . and deep decent to a creek and out again tight corners etc.. was a about a 5 k loop back to the start.. other bikes were 2x KTM 450 ECX. crf 250 . YZ 125
they laff'd at me all week calling it my boyz bike.. its just a toy/ at work planning the meet /ride ..
still laffing sitting on their horses when i unloaded it..
confident i was gunna let it rip .. geared up.. fired her up ... and thats when the laffin at me stopped... 3 hrs later they where all amaised that how hard the pitty went''
.... dont get me wrong it was like steering a brick and and half the time i was out of control , but i kept it pegged.. and got the "pitty " some self respect.. my ass is red raw and came home with another flat rear ,, but the rear rim lock still had me flogging forward . no limp mode,, just knocked of the pace.. but was .. the best riding i've done on it yet...
hit the dirt twice.. fired straight up .. and ... back too buisness
on the second loop they thought i needed a head start.. so hammer down .. first 6 min of long straights with gulley launch's was hitting in top gear and kept looking back but no sign of em till i started the rocky decent towards the creek... little wheels dont cut it... any way dont be scared to ride with the big boyz its brings out a aggressive side of your riding skills that you dont normally see.
.. thumbs up here... butane
