- Racing the 24 450FX for the first time in this 65 mile enduro. It was a hot day where many didn't finish the 6 total tests. I was in 6th place halfway through... battled back up to 3rd but fell short of the podium in the final test. I missed 3rd place by just under a minute. 4th place finish in my class and 43rd overall.
This race was brutal! I had three goals this weekend. 1. Not to cramp ✅ 2. Do all 5 test. ✅ They didn't score my last 2. 3. Beat my buddy Bert. ✅. Had to be the one of the hardest races I've done. You never really had a break. Good job!
Was wondering if you were out there. Nice job finishing that one 👍. It was definitely a rough race.
@@JRideRR you were parked at the entrance where we were at. I seen your bike at the truck. Good racing racing this year. I really enjoyed your videos. I bought my son's 350 ans now he's looking at either a 250fx or a kawasaki 250x.
Will you be attending the banquet? We have 3 potential 1st place winners in our little group.
Thanks,
Mark
@@flaglerdirtriders6866 Thanks man. I guess you liked that 350 huh? Congrats. Tell him to go for the FX. I think it will hold up longer than that KX. I don't think I'll be able to make the banquet but nice job to the winners! Our team came in 3rd place for the year in HS so hopefully they can grab my trophy.
Awesome ride ! Section one was my favorite it was brutal out there. I’m on a kx450 and it definitely was tough to hold on to towards the end of section 6. Those palmettos sucked!
Thanks! Yeah I was ready to ghost ride my bike into a tree. I was over it by test 6. 🤣
Great riding! Question: Are you happy with the DJI? Looks like Ill be buying a new action camera and really not happy with the Gopro overheating and stopping the recordings.
Thanks. Yes I am. I did have some overheating issues when I first got the DJI but I'm guessing a software update fixed that. There has been a few updates since I bought the camera. The last two races the camera has worked flawlessly. Last race it lasted over 1.5hrs of straight recording on a single battery and this enduro it never shutoff due to heat recording 30-40 mins at a time and it was hot.
@JRideRR Thanks man. We might be headed up to camp at that new campground near St Marys Schoals 2nd weekend of July. Going to ride St Marys if you're down to ride, c'mon.
@@K9Yoshi1 Nice! Let me know when you confirm the date and I'll see if I can make it.
@JRideRR I know it's short notice but we're camping up near St. Mary's Schoals. Thinking it's probably pretty wet out there so going to hit up Keystone Killer Loop tomorrow for the open ride day. I've been wanting to check it out and should be okay will all the rain since it's so sandy. You down to ride?
@@K9Yoshi1 Damn man. If I had more notice I probably could have made that happen. Have fun! Shoals was dry as a bone so some rain would help. The loop is great training. Get ready for that deep sand! Haha
Whats your favorite part of the yammy do you like the most over the ktm?
Probably being able to play with the engine mapping. Really makes a difference depending where you’re riding.
As a guy from WV this looks wild to me. Never seen so many skinny straight trees and palmettos in my life. Nice riding. I bet that 450 was a handful towards the end
Hahaha Good observation.
Thanks. It didn’t seem to wear me out anymore than the 350 at that pace.
Great riding man,you passed me like I was standing still at one point , I barely made it man,was rough
Thanks! Congrats on another win! Yeah, I was hurting towards the end. Glad that one is over.
