The cannonBALL is a great deal for $8000 it comes with the truck and all the extra parts . Also 3 factory mechanics , one to clean it , one to jump start it (with jumper cables) , and most importaint one to push it back to the truck , when it dies !!!! feel bad for Keith but this is the place we tell the truth !!!!!

Keith said it had fuel boiling problems, injectors are aimed wrong, seems like that should be an easy fix.

If anyone think's they can do better by all mean's go ahead. Does anyone remember all the problem's yamaha had? Does anyone remember Doug Henry breaking both wrist's due to bike faliure?

Keith,

This simply separates the men from the boys. The boys sit back and watch and are quick to judge and bitch. The men are willing to put there names and careers on the line to better the sport of motocross. I for one admire and appreciate what people like yourself and Doug Henry have done for the sport that I love. Like the YZ400 the Cannondale is one awesome piece of technology. It's about dam time that the most powerful nation in the world got it's ass in gear and made its mark building machines to dominate the sport the it's riders already do. Hang tough. Once you work out the bugs you will kick but............

I agree totally with Allan's response. Someone has to test the bike and Keith is the one. He's got a job to do for Cannondale and he's doing it instead of whining about it. I'm too lazy to push the lawn mower one swipe down the lawn (hey that's why we have kids right... to get us stuff and do stuff) but I helped the ESPN camera guy push Doug Henry's thumper to start it at Gainesville, what 3 years ago. He was on the gate and couldn't start it. And don't tell me if any one of the factories asked you to race/test a new bike, you wouldn't jump at the chance.

i believe keith did great for a local with a new team against the best pro's in the world the cannondale seemed to handle good and looked to have the most power on the track cannondale did have trouble but where also monotoring the bike each time keith pulled off
