i wonder if you have ever ridden a banshee?? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

.......

anyways goin back to the original question, i think the honda might be better in the dunes. honda supposedly has a beast of a motor whose potential can be reached via HRC. thats what i hear anyways.... well i guess u can't go wrong with either, they are actually pretty similar.

i say pick your favorite color and go ride!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

The YFZs have more power in stock form than the 450r theres no doubt about that. The suspention is better on the yfz handeling I chose the yfz some people say the 450r. The 450r is better in the air it has a more even center of gravity. Ide get the yfz unless I got a killer deal on a 450r.
