Bump

 

im in the same boat and have just recently asked all those ?s im tired of my raptor. after riding all of them im buying the new ltr450. but iday the 700 for just trails but if u ever want to hit the track get a 450. hondas are bullet proff. im going out on limb and buying the new ltr450.awesome quad. good luck

 

Thats not true i raced a rappy 700 that was piped before when my yfz was stock and tied him and now that my quad is piped i can whoop any 700's butt. lol just talking from experience. although i am realy light (90lbs) being 13 and all but most of the 450's i have seen kick the 700's butts( and yfz's r way faster thatn 450r's).
Hope i help,
Branden

 

If you are just trail riding and thats it go with the raptor but if you are getting into racing either wait for the new kawi or go with one of the other 450's that are available I love my 450r sofar I just got it and the yfz and suzuki are nice but wouldn't recommend it for trail riding.

 

your 13 and weigh 90 lb? how tall are you? i dont know any kid who weighs 90lb and can handle a 450's power, thats amazing
