After working on the In-Depth version, I basically had it all memorized. Joe and I were dealing with noise from planes that was jacking up our audio so we had to stop a couple times. But once I got rolling, I did most of these in one take. The final Yamaha take though, I was messing up on the intro, so I think it took four tries.

Thank you for not including a bed of mumbling "hip hop" garbage as background music.

No 350? That is really disappointing.

Sorry, doing an eight bike comparison is a bit of a stretch. Along with the fact that KTM and Husky actually don't want to include them at this time.

It makes sense, but the new 350 is supposed to be really good. Keefer thought it was one of the best bikes in the 450 category of the 2016 models!
