I have been riding atvs on and off since i was 16 and now im 25. Want to get a new 450 quad but I am having a problem on deciding what brand. I have read that honda makes the best all around bike but the rear end breaks on big jumps. I was looking at either honda or yamaha. Just some input would help alot.

 

What kind of riding are you going to be doing? Track, Trails, Dunes? Personally

I would look in the direction of the Suzuki 450. If you are doing trail riding I would lean more toward the YFZ. The type of riding you are going to be doing will help us give you suggestions.

 

Tracks and dunes, well if i can find any tracks around sierra vista, az. Thanks for yout input so far.

 

The Honda 450R is the king of desert racing! If you are in one of the big races like Baja or Vegas to Reno, you probably won't even finish, much less win unless you are on the Honda. You live in Arizona...what else do you need to know????
