blaster vs...

[Xero]

Hi guys I've asked a similar question before, but tomorrow I'll hopefully be taking the blaster for a test run, if everything goes.okay I'll he racing about with some crossers how will the blaster keep with...

Suzuki rm85 (fmf pipe)
Honda cr85 heavily moded
Kawasaki of 125 (when asked replied "it's race tuned n stuff")

Where were.riding its more acceleration as we probs won't get out of 3-4 gear ..

I hate to say it, but you are going to get walked on like a dog...

Even the tiny 85cc engines are SO highly tuned that they produce 30 hp (despite the fact that the powerband is "bible paper thin") so if the riders are any sort of skilled, they'll be able to keep the engine screaming and run away from you like you're "tied to the hitching post".

rider skill plays a big role in all the above mentioned power/speed facts
a good rider can keep up with those and even larger bikes in the trails, let it get wet/sloppy/muddy and you'll find the blaster more than capable of overtaking them as they slip-slide all around

The way to look at it is this..... if the riders stink and you can keep yours on the pipe, you might be able to keep within sight of them. If you can keep within sight of them, you should feel good about that and remember to always have fun!

also, like you said you be using low gears, so im assuming its a tight track, those 85s will definitly shred through the tight areas.

Well it's gonna be really wet but it's open with a few.jumps but is also quite.rough.. I'll just hope.to pass.them on the corners since I've heard its hard to corner for.them on the terrain here

Eh, the motor size isn't everything. I smoke my friend EVERY time we ride except on straight shots (roads). I've got a stock Blaster and he rides a 440ex. Rider skill is a big part. I'm no pro, but my friend doesn't have a whole lot of time on his quad either.

Well, the guys never showed but i finally got rid of the dumb twist throttle so i could rip .. was riding with some chinese crap.. needless to stay nothing kept with me
