At least one blew up and threw a caution for oil on the track.

That was cool how they caught it exactly when it let go. You saw the first plume of smoke and that's all she wrote.

I didn't think it would. You can't go from a stck 250 to a factory 450 and expect to turn it on. Takes time to get the bugs sorted out. He may of been in over his head. It is a good story, but a few days adjusting to a factory bike isn't enough time. Hope he gets some more time on it. Results may be different if he had some time to set it up.

The Yamaha guys I spoke with were happy with Champion's ride. He looked fast and rode well but he's probably putting a little too much pressure on himself.
