I'm not real big on coloured wheels these days but they look sensational on this YZ IMHO. While it's a really nice bike, it's probably on the money right now.....the import costs would send it over the feasibility factor.

I still hate 'em....... ;)

No argument that's it's a tidy bike, but it is just a bitsa, so I'm not sure if it would be worth the dollars??

There was a time in my life where taste was only something I experienced when I ate ::). I eventually got over it ;).

The bogus Mono-link rear end has been removed, as well as the stupid radiator on the handlebars.
The old Mono-link felt like you were dragging a dead animal behind on a rope.

But being a "J" frame, I am guessing this bike would not qualify for the EVO class ?
