Last weekends last big race in KY state championship series. I bought my 06 RMZ450 exactly 1 week earlier and was pumped. First practice saturday I got on the track about 3rd and was rippen. Bike is awsome, second lap hit a 45 foot table perfect, hit the throttle just before landing, bike popped and stalled, soon as the back tire hit the ground the bike stopped and I didn't. I was done for saturday.

Sunday morning I decided if I could load the bike onto my truck myself I'd go. Took 2 attempts but got it on. Big day lots of great racin I just wasn't in it. Finished 7 in the first moto and 8 in the second after stalling the bike on the start and twice more during the race.

Well I have lots of time to put on the accessories I ordered from works connection. Throttle tube, skid plate, and radiator braces.

OH did I mention it helps to put gas in your bike before practice

My buddy broke his wrist because of that same very reason. I definitely check my gas a little more closely. Good luck buddy.

Thanks TTers, starting to feel better this weekend figure it'll be another week before I can get back on the bike. BTW radiator braces for the 450 are back ordered at least a week case anyone needs em.
