I had a DRZ with 3x3, full FMF and JD jet kit. It was the exact opposite. I beat the wr450...

You sure you didn't have a fcr 39mm carb? All of that you listed isn't enough to beat it
@smalltownrider5603 Жыл бұрын
The wr450 you raced mightve had the throttle stop screw still installed or the rider was shit. To beat the wr450 you would probably need a 440 big bore with a fcr carb.

If the wr isn’t un corked it will perform like 30% even 40% less than when u do all the free mods, I’m not sure how restricted the drzs are stock but I’ve ridden my mates which was bone stock and the power is no where close to any wr I have owned, I’ve had wr 400 426 450 , surprisingly to my 426 felt quicker than my 450

Heh, this is funny! The wr has 50cc more than the 400, and yet it barely able to slowly roll on past you? And, your not happy about it? Why don't you just trade bikes for a while.. I'll bet that the wr owner would be more than willing to trade!! 😅

Nah this was a shitty race was surprised on the views I got so I left it up. He had a bad start and still flew by me. I have a ktm 500 now and it's the other way around. Drzs are just too slow and heavy unless you spend some money on them. Couldn't be happier with the 500 I have now

I should also mention I weighed 155 at the time and the guy on the 450 weighed 220

Hardly an effective comparison. The wr can produce 49hp depending on the model whereas most american DRZs are still shy of 40hp. But that wont show in a straight line drag race because the bikes arent designed for drag races, theyre designed for log hopping, rough terrain and single tracks. Here the Wr will show you that it is the better bike by 10hp and 20kg

Dude it was just a race to see who’s faster chill the fuck out. The wr450 had a bad start and still smoked me. Numbers don’t lie…drz has less horsepower and heavier while the wr450 has more horse power and lighter. Doesn’t take rocket science to figure out the outcome dumbass
