Picked up this new 85 on Friday. Spent the evening gearing it, greasing, installing new handlebars and hour meter, drained the gas and added race fuel. Woke up early Saturday morning and headed to Pala for the LL's / Mammoth qualifiers! Not the best way to get used to a new bike but it did the job well. My son is 12 so every class he races is mod and this bike didn't seem to suffer too badly on starts or anywhere else. I had to turn in the fork compression all the way and add a few to the rear in order for him to not bottom everywhere but I'm pretty pleased with it overall. I intended to buy him a KTM but after he rode the intro to the new 65 he started asking for a Yamaha, for a lot less $ I didn't argue.
