their both almost identical. untill you look at the price tag. the Honda is alot cheeper.Their both great quads with great aftermarkets. If you have the extra 700$ for the YFZ, ide get that. otherwise the 450r is just as good.

The yfz has electric start, the honda is kick only. Thats a major difference to any rider, mx or not. If you are mx, the R looks better, if not, the kick is unecessary.

Sorry, my brain is tired.

The r is supposed to be a better overall quad, and better for trails. The yfz seat is pretty hard, and will also give you hemmroids!
