Default Still on the Fence.

I'm selling my V-Force, and buying either a YFZ450 or the new Raptor 700. I know the 700 will probably be better on trails, but how much better? I love my V, really fun bike, but I'm a small guy, and throwing it's weight around on really tight trails is beginning to tire me out. If anyone is interested in buying my V, email me, I'll make you a good deal. It's an 05 with about 100 hours on it and in immaculate condition, washed after every ride. I has Pro Armor A-arm guards, Pro Armor Race Bumper, Pro Armor nerfs, K&N filter, and Kawasaki 4 row pegs. Pics are in my profile.

well i would say keep the V since u do mostly do trails.. the Raptor700R is gonna have problems first off.. just like EVERY other new quad that hits the market.. I say wait a year and by then you should have a better idea on what to do. Alos, Nice Durango

Well, if I were a small guy {Im not, 6 foot 265 lbs} I'd be all over a 450 racer be it honda, yamaha, kawasaki, suzuki, bombardier, or polaris, since this fall all those companies will have 450 racers on the market. Just take that v to a dealer and see what you can get on trade.

Starting it at $5500 but I will deal. I'm gonna try to trade at the dealership, but they always seem to shaft ya on a trade. Yeah I would expect a few bugs out of the Raptor 700 for the first year, there always are in a new quad, nature of the beast.
