Default YFZ450-Test Ride

I got to ride the new 2004 yfz450 at my local Yamaha dealer and let me tell you,it was impressive. The handling was very good and the suspension was excellent for being stock. The speed of the yfz450 is its most impressive feature. The stock speed can reach about 72. Yamaha did a fine job with the new quad. The only thing I didnt like about the yfz450 was the color. I prefer the blue but it doesnt really matter about the color anyways. Let me know what you guys think of the new quad. thanks

Dirt Wheels pays him to go around to different dealerships and test ride their new quads after they get them set up. That's where they get most of their info for their articles.

How can you find all that out by riding it at the dealer? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

I hear the white ones are faster because the blue ones soak up more heat from the sun and causes the plastic to soften, catching more air.
