atv mx retirement.

as of today i am officially retired from racing my beloved yfz450. i will not buy another quad nor race again. i sold it today to a gentleman who drove 3hrs based on my verbal description of the quad and what i had done to it. i told him when he saw it he would buy it. sure enough. of all the atv's i have owned and ridden, my mx yfz was tops in all catergories except the uncomfortable seat. i feel like a part of my life is now missing. of all the races i entered, i started and finished all. my best was a 2nd place with an 18 rider gate start, and my worst was 11th at the GNC in GATORBACK with 40+ racers in my class. not to bad(i think)considering i had been only trail riding atv's for 2 yrs when i got the yfz august of 2003 and decided to mx. i will leave behind many good memories and a few bad ones but the best ones i have pictures of. one thing for sure, you get what you pay for, and i did. the YAMAHA YFZ450 WILL ALWAYS BE MY BIKE OF CHOICE.
