Got the latest TWMX in the mailbox Saturday.
I thought it was funny that when they asked James about the biggest difference with the Yamaha, and he replied something like 'it turns so much better'
Every magazine test of the YZ450 tells you that it turns horribly, and that is its weakest point (apart from the stupid power-killing muffler)
But then again, I guess there isn't a magazine tester alive who rides like James.

The kid has some personality.
The Shop
They ask what causes Arm Pump - James replies "Chocking the Chicken" .then laughs
Awhile back they spent a zillion dollars to modify a YZ450 with a cut frame, triple clamps, lowered radiators, different shock link, etc etc and said that it got better but that there was still some mid-out push.
Anyway, my Maico Magnum turns inside anything, so why should I care?
MY bet, the factory bikes are different than the OEM ones.
