[@brandonbankes8890]

All manufacturers need to comeback

[@abdullaismail4394]

Thanks for this video 👏🏼👍🏼

[@For_Fun360]

Basically he is still a honda dude it's just because he needs to upgrade his quad to newer technology that he switched to Yamaha, because there nothing more he can do to that thing and the other dudes are upgrading.

[@astreet339]

You can tell he is still a Honda guy, because there aren’t too many Red and White Factory Yamaha Race quads on the gate. Lol my hat is off to the kid, the Yamaha switch is a better business decision than Honda at the moment, and he can grow and develop with the Yamaha

[@TheHustlinDriftLord]

Dude that jacket is lit! Forsale?

[@colelawson4325]

Still rockin that pro Honda jacket tho

[@supermilsimdude3259]

I think at heart hes honda for life but with current options he didnt have a choice

[@antoniolozano435]

Trx rules

[@gordonhunt9898]

Missed the Q&A entry. But with the FMF system on the yamaha I'm assuming Dasa is not doing the motor anymore?

[@Ripitupfilms]

Just testing Dasa is still on

[@lrd350r]

Does that mean the Phoenix gncc guys will be on Yamaha as well? Borich hates the Yamaha, so that is going to be interesting.

[@michaelknapik6792]

Just wondering if their is a significant weight difference between the two quads?

[@bloopsh6869]

Ones at least a a pound and the other one is a pound or two

[@ligershark33]

I just sold my 2019 yfz450r because of how heavy it was. Looking at getting a ltr again or give one of the other brands a try. Maybe Honda, ktm or can am

[@chickenwobbie1728]

When are you gonna get down to Florida to do some training with you me and restrelli

[@chickenwobbie1728]

My name is robbie lindquist by the way restrelli knows who I am

[@larrylebell3640]

Whose doing the motor work , and would yiu run jb racing arms and swing arm?

[@camdenfrancis1957]

Why did Joel ride a ltr in pro stock and not a honda

[@GBDunknRollCD]

Stock trx doesnt have the width, handling, suspension or geometry from stock that the ltr has. And thats from a honda guy.

[@kylehardman6139]

Will joel race PA ATV championship at sleepy hollow to get more seat time on the new yamaha?

[@andrewhesser1504]

Less troubles with ur motor!!! Yamaha all the way down!! Wish Honda and them would make 450 again though...

[@danielvinyard4948]

What a-arms are you running for 2021?

[@wielowiejskieenduro1660]

Cool ✌

[@wielowiejskieenduro1660]

Yamaha , honda or china atv - we love u not maker 😅💪🔥 , master sen seî

[@briand6878]

Don't lie bud you lost that bet lol. The trx looks way better

[@Pepo1500]

Why do you think that no team uses the KFX 450R atv?

[@Ripitupfilms]

Parts availability

[@chickenwobbie1728]

And I don't think its made anymore

[@Pepo1500]

@@Ripitupfilms ok

[@Blackjackluck21]

Joel used to ride the factory KFX. Besides parts availability, I believe Joel said on Digging Deep Podcast that the Honda is just a better ATV. Said it made him into a whole new, faster rider.

[@jonathanhawkins1486]

I’d bet 100 bucks he goes back to Honda

[@Ripitupfilms]

I would bet you everything I own that he never will touch a Honda again haha.

[@geauxyon901]

Honda is losing their shine to yahmaha, they need to make some sport quads

[@Ripitupfilms]

They lost their shine in 2006

[@peacefulwarrior4078]

The saddest part about it all is that
HONDA DOESNT EVEN GIVE A SHIT
WHEN THEY SHOULD !!!

[@dustinrichards8401]

Yamaha is the best

[@jeremiasotero1545]

Hahahahahaha good joke

[@the_ltz_guymaster7912]

He only did because there the last company

[@2stroketime348]
