| wow, thats crazy. I am not ecstatic for hill climbs, so if thats ALL there is, eh... but if its a mix of riding, it'd be sweet. Like I was checking out wellsville and it looks like all there is is hill climbs, and me only having a utility, doesnt really sound like a weekend full of fun for me | |

| Make sure you hit the Marienville bike loop, it tests your machine's prep job, seen people's important pieces fall off there. Willow Creek--lots of roots and rocks. I did it on a 400 after Rocky Gap and it sure is bumpy. No plans on heading back but it was cool that you could hear banjos playing in the parking lot.

| It's a 4.3gal but I haven't been on it with the 450r. I was on it with the 400ex w/ 5.5gal-could ride for 2 full days hard on that thing--stock engine w/white bros. exhaust. You will be fine. | |

| Don't even notice it. If you want to run XC you willneed a bigger tank depending on the track size. | |
