    2012 WR 450 there I said it.

    I’d go along with that, even an older stock model if you get big enough $$$ off. Cheap parts, reliable, good handling and can be had for a good price, there is also heaps of parts for them too.

    People take the piss out of the Yaamies weight, and I’m normally first to jump on the bandwagon, fact is though my 570 (although supposedly lighter) feels heavier to pick up and it’s what it feels like on the trail that counts, not what the stats say……..

    +1
    If you want to lay under it all day and Bench press it buy a 2 smoker or lighter bike
    otherwise the great weight debate is all crap

    Good bike

    Doing the nowra pony express next sunday, and was wondering if anyone had some tips as to what kind of things to be drinking and eating both prior to and on race day.

    Im supposing a bunch of carbs (pasta, potatoes etc.) leading upto the race, and some form of electrolite drink and maybe more carbs and energy bars during the event. Im only doing the teams part of it so should have around 40 mins down time every 40 mins
    C’mon Have a go it will only be 20

    Also any recomendations for cramping? Salt/Magnesium tablets sarting a few days before?

    You mightn’t have to worry too much ……………………shitty mightn’t return from his lap

    cause I’m gonna run him over :) :sick: :whistle: 👿
    or if he runs me over i won’t let him continue :P

    I get about 1 1/2 hrs filming at 720 on 4GB card

    Over 2 hours battery life filming but I fill my card well before the batteries flat

    Can’t plug straight into the tv as far as I know , you have to load onto your PC.

    I use Imovies on Mac and it’s very simple , not sure what the PC equivalent is ??

    When I load a movie I can put it in iTunes then load it on my iPhone / iPad

    Hope this helps :)
