Strong points: Great well-balanced and stable chassis, power to outpull a CR500, flies well, easy to start (make sure you jet it right), Great brakes, Fix the clutch by putting a braided hose instead of the crap original one. Off you go! Weaknesses: Too powerful for anything but experienced riders, clutch leaks from new, Vibration, exhaust pipe routing (f%*#@ing hot headpipes), kickstart too high and awkward, easy to stall off the idle. Fix the slow turning by raising the forklegs 2-4 mm in the yokes.
