I choked and broke my leg

Short video of a Hare Scramble I was in back in November on my 450F. I choked on a hill climb for whatever reason and the guy behind me didn't stop and cremed me with his front tire, breaking my right tib/fib. I was doing pretty good too.

Ow....! That's one nasty break!

Ouch........ the scream was kinda.... ewwwwwww

Hope you are recovering well...

Since you have a WR-F(450) and a WR-R, can I get some opinions from you?

For the kinda terrain in the vid, which one do you think would perform better?

Cheers

Thats a good question. They both weigh about the same, both have Go-Race suspension, steering dampers, and Revloc Auto clutches (though I haven't ridden the 250R in the dirt yet with the new farkles) so handling wise, I think they'd be fairly close. The big difference is that the 450 has about a million more horsepower and torque. That can be good and bad, for me, its mostly bad, but I love it. The truth is though, sometimes novices like myself are faster on a less horsepower bike because its not as easy to get yourself into trouble quite as quickly.
