Hey everyone, I have a little experience on a 400ex not much though, and I was wondering if I respect the power would I be ok to ride a YFZ or TRX 450. I’m not a crazy person I know my limits. If so which atv would you recommend the YFZ450 or TRX450. I would be doing some smaller table tops (10-50ft) a little bit of flat track racing and I would take it to the trails and tracks a little bit? I know there both MX quads but I want to hear from people with personal experience on them

Thanks

 

You should be fine.....Your experience grows on a quad the more you ride it....and yes it is an upgrade from the ex but you should be fine....How old are you anyways......but if I were to pick one of the two...i would just wait untill next year and get the true 450 yfz....both are great quads and you can't go wrong with either...the electric start might be important in your case though.

 

I think the Honda has the better handling frame, and the Yamaha has the slightly faster engine.

 

Is there a guarantee its going to a true 450?

 

what do you mean by true 450? like an actual YFZ450 or i don't get it

 

he means its not actually 450 CC it is actually a 439

 

He wants to know if yamaha is bumping it up from 439 to 450 ... I'm Curious too cause I'm thinking about getting another one ?

 

you cant really go wrong with either

 

well my buddies going to get a 04' YFZ and i'm gonna do a payment plan on an 05' 450R when they come out

 

considering the pros and cons if i had a choice of the yfz or trx id take yfz, i have rode each one.
however in the near future, suzuki or kawasaki or someone will come out with a 450
