Default answer me this-yfz/yzf whatever

Who has mx'd one that has had a race quad before?
How does the stock suspension stack up against aftermarket?
What about the steering stem height?

I guess I want to know how good the suspension set-up is from the factory compared to my raptor with A-arms and TCS shocks

I personally thought it sucked. I immediately put arms and PEP shocks on mine and it made a huge difference in the handling. My stem is 1" forward and 1" up with Tag T2 CR-high bars.

I like my suspension valving to be harsh...so I suppose I'll put some TCS shocks on my wish list

Hey Jay, are you getting a YFZ450 now or what? I was thinking that you were gonna wait for the Honda to come out.

It's kind of like walking up too a pit bull on a leash....you see his ring that he has created at the extents of his chain.....you walk in and get mauled. You crawl back out and regain composure.....only too walk back in?? LMAO!

No...I will purchase the Honda
HOWEVER it isn't out so I'm asking in reference to the Yammie

I'm sure suspenson will be very similar(shock type/quality)

I've been bitten by the pitbull too many times...
If I ever end up with another Yamaha would someone please kick me square in my junk!!

The new Honda should be a nice quad....even though it's gonna probably be underpowered the the YFZ (speculation). No electric start too mess up and cylinder oil is not tranny oil too.
