Beaverdale Pa. Hill Climb 6/27/2010

My first competitive hill climb. Was a very well run event. Very challenging hill. I did not do very well, but plan on making a few changes to the bike and trying again in the fall. The two strokes work very good on this hill. Would be difficult to beat them in the stock class.

Hello pitbull, If I were to take an interest in this form of competition, I would have to build a bike from scratch. My KTM is a very slow revving engine and is very tractable. I was not able to spin my tire and accelerate up the hill without the front end lifting. My bike is perfect for the loose hills that you and I are accustomed to. Those boys are good and know how to set their bikes up for that type of competition. Although I would enjoy climbing with them at Trevorton.

Hello Denny, Yes that was me. I got my butt kicked on that hill. Those boys are good out their. I'm set up for Trevorton, I did not have a chance. I plan on making a few changes and trying again in the fall. My bike is a torque monster, not a drag bike. Don

@Kingtrevorton i was thinking about building a hillclimb bike, possibly out of a newer bikes frame like an 07 yz450f frame with a 426 motor,yz426AF with a slightly extended swingarm probly will only cost $2500 bucks to build and the yz426 motors are cheap and powerfull with a heavier torqier flywheel weigh, i think it would have great results, let me know what u think man
