1998 350x Warrior vs. 2004 Grizzly 600

[JFR_Jon]

I'll never diss my Warrior again, it still remains 100% stock. The Grizzly was also stock but it being a 2004 and only 172 miles on it, it is very fresh. My Warrior has around 16k miles on it.

We do our racing "UnderGround" since there is no ATV Drag Tracks around here, we go to the local AirPort and race on the Asphalt runway till they call the police.

Just us 2 racing so we done a warm up race, my hand slipped off the clutch leaver when shifting from first to second givin him a lil pull away lead, i was right beside him where he marked our finish line though.

We done the actuall race, he got a good lil jump but wasnt enough for the power of the Warrior to hop right back beside him. We stayed side by side till i hit 5th gear and i started pullin away just a lil then i hit 6th and looked back to see a good lil lead over the Grizzly. Had a friend standing at the finish line and he said i was about 5-6 lengths ahead of the Grizzly.

After it was all over, we was talkin and the guy on the Grizzly said his speed ometer was at 66mph. So do the math, 66mph + me pullin away about 5-6 legths = about 72 mph and that still wasnt top end.

Next time we go back to the AirPort, we're gonna run the entire Runway so he can get his up to speed and see if i keep pullin away. He said he's had the Grizzly at top end and only 78mph. If i pull away with it goin 78 then i was right in the first place about a Stock Warrior doin 80+.

Your stock Warrior does not do 72 MPH. It will not even go 66 MPH.

are you from bluetraxx.com? I think someone needs to have their speedomoeter calibrated. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but a stock warrior is extremely hard pressed to do 70 let alone 80.

The warrior... real good trail machine. but certainly NOT the first thing that comes to mind when I think "race quad".

No offense but I have never seen a Warrior ridden by ne one but girls around here.

a stock warrior couldnt do 70 if it was tied to the back of my shee let alone 80, someone is lyin to u, or your lyin to us, plus, not to b an ass, but i do believe this is E2S everthing 2 STROKE, warrior even tho it is a yamaha, isnt a 2 stroke, take it to bluetraxx

[MaineExport]

oh come on... be nice! How else will 4 stroke owners see the light and be exposed to the superiority of our out-dated technology if we scare them off?

[JFR_Jon]

I know this is a 2-Stroke Forum. Just cause i didnt mention my other machines dont mean shit.

Im not lieing to no one either, guess the dude was layin to me about the Grizzly runnin 66 but i did smoke it.

To get to the bottom of the E2S and bluetraxx deal, ive never even heard of bluetraxx.com until just now.

My dad and i buy used ATV's & Dirt Bikes then fix and resell. My personal machines are 1998 Warrior, 1995 Bayou, 1999 Blaster and 1993 Trail Blazer & no i never ride the Bayou and the Trail Blazer needs to be rebuilt but i do road ride the Warrior and i race the Blaster in MX every now and then but it's out right now with trans probs.

Oh I have no doubt you beat the hell out of him, I don't think anybody here would contest that. But I think his speedo might have been "off" by a little!

Anyway... welcome to E2S!!! Stick around!
