Default need honest opinions from the bomb guys

I am currently on the verge of getting a 450 and keeping my ds650 and getting rid of my ozark...But I need an honest opinion on what you guys have heard and think of these quads...I personally am going to be trails riding and width has no effect as Idrive the ds in the trails anyhow...it is between the 450r and the r450 I just can't decide I have heard that the 450r is geared high and has great ergonomics and the suzuki has efi which I would love to have and it seems to be mx ready but I am sutck between these 2...any help would be gretly appreciated.

For me, thats not even a hard decision - LTR 450. hands down over the 450R. It would be a tougher decision if you made me choose between the YFZ and the LTR. But I think the LTR would still win out in my mind.

I rode a Honda 450R... I liked the powerband over the YFZ and egronomics was better. HOWEVER they have changed some stuff on them since then. They may feel more like a YFZ now. I would think the New Suzuki has more bang for the buck. EFI, Race Ready it looks very promising or wait and see what Bomb may offer us next year (if they are hearing our cries).
