First Air :)

Got my first bit of air the other week, nothing spectacular but im stoked at how smooth the landings are compared to the Raptor. The jump i got out the back is pretty rutted out and the run up is pretty nasty so i was finding it difficult to get any speed up. With a descent jump and down ramp i should be able to get some good air time. Anyways heres a pic from one of my first jumps.

Half way there

Got some of the modifications done to the YZ. So far the bars, seat and foot plates are done, the bars need some work on the top mounts to make them a bit stronger but they are holding up well so far. I've also got my new stator with lighting output ready to power my gear shifter which im hoping to get in a couple of weeks.

Rode the YZ nearly every day last week, im starting to get a bit of confidence up and i did my first jumps last Sunday. Landings are so smooth compared to the Raptor, jumps where i would usually get winded badly on the Raptor i can take twice as big and not hurt at all.

The bike is now washed and ready for its final stage of modification, i'll post up some pics and footage when its all done (hopefully soon!!!)
