I had an 92 version and raced the 94.
More or less the YZ of the day with lights. Tank as ugly as the fat girl left at the bar at Midnight.
Blinding fast for Pro's but intimidating for anyone else. The 94/95 hit much smother than the 92/93. Mods I did in the day. Fit YZ tank and shrouds. Stiffer rear spring and back the damping right off , rebound a few clicks of stiffest. Forks needed 10w with a rise in height little to no damping like 3 clicks in. Soft ebc brake pads. The stand drags everything and adds kilo's to unsprung weight.  If the jetting is standard try at least 3 sizes smaller on the needle with bigger Pilot and main. 48/51 rear sprocket, cut the top out of air box.
