Thanks for the offer to count the guys behind me Mike but i think if i raced as fast as my mouth I would be ahead, ha ha well i can dream can't I. Truth is I have lost some confidence since my big bang last June, and my shoulder is still not right (but my surgeons boat and house in Bulimba is) anyway I hope to get back into it soon. Yes this was my IT , so the only IT stuff still left now is:
Frame, swingarm
barrel, piston
1st gear
4th gear
airbox
chain tensioner
lighting coil
I tried the yz 490 barrel and it's shithouse, the it 465 barrel with YZ pipe is an excellent combo and has proved on more than one occasion to stay easily with other 490's. Its got smooth large power low down and a very healthy mid range (with the yz pipe) with good over rev ( if needed). There is a lot of stuffing around to get pipe and side covers to fit and be mounted, but at the end of the day its not a bad way to own a yz465, as there are many IT465's around. The yz pipe I first tried was the DG unit and it was nice, but just for kicks I am trying the YZ490 retro rocket pipe on the IT barrel, I am keen to see how that performs. Maybe Lozza will tell me what might happen?
