hope a 4 gear will come out as an option, be interesting to see how it goes up against the ymax, probably the same I assume

I'm surprised to hear that, as the few times I ran my YZ-Max in very Slippery/Wet Conditions, I found it to have better Rear Traction than even a Standard BMax2 MR!

I have also tried it in the Dry & I found that it virtually wanted to Roll over everywhere, it had so much Grip! Obviously, in these Conditions, it cant Compete with a Standard YZ-2, on Cornerspeed!

I'm still alittle Confused on why there looking at a 3Gear Transmission for a Low Grip/Dirt version, as I remember when the old Atomic CR2 had a 3Gear Box initially, but then they Updated it to a 4Gear to Generate more Grip/Traction, which was a noticeable Improvement!!
I also thought that AE Released a 3Gear Box for the B5m, to free up the Rear of the Car, for High Grip situations??
