Every 30 hours.   Add more gas and ride or rebuild at the tune of 3200$. Your choice

If money is not a factor then you can have you cake and eat it too.

I think he means 3g on the 4 stroke. Just gas and ride the 500. It takes a Mint to ride a 4stroke, especially the upgrades.

most of the new 4 strokes I see have way more problems then 2 strokes, but I think it's because people refuse to belive that the modern 4 stroke is a full race motor that recived most of its technology from f1 engines.

if you choose to go with a 4 stroke: make sure to follow the factory mantiance schedual; and you will forget how to ride fast and use a clutch.

I would not consider myself a fast ridder but i have never had a 450 come close to beating my 500 in the sand. the 500 pruduces more power sooner.
