Hey guys been looking on this site for awhile so to hell with it I thought I'd sign up. Currently a college student. I fix bikes on the side as a job LOL! Can be fun sometimes, other times not so much. I race and ride pretty frequently. I have been racing motocross for the past 2-3 years and this year I am going to try and race a whole series for woods and do a GNCC at Unadilla come sept. Hopefully this site has a lot of great info and you guys can help me out!!

Welcome, everything they all said ^^^^^^^^^

It was a post about a YZ, and since your such a YZ guy, and the "YZ Doctor", I figured you would chime in.
I am however a bit surprised to see that you recommend an RM over the YZ.
Although this knucklehead that posted under you "thinks" it is a superior machine he is wrong on many accounts. A superior machine would still be in production if the demand was there. Zook did have a close running tie (and a nudge above) with Yamaha but that is because they really knew how to set up the steering (rake etc.) to make it turn on a dime. I would still hold Yamaha above the zook for the engine, suspension, support, and it is still in production. But if I had a zook, I would not "replace" it. I would just add the Yamaha to the stable.
I've seen a couple of guys at the track running their RM's. From what I've heard from those guys, even the older years ('02, etc.) they claim are far easier to handle than the YZ's.
