I like the new yamaha and I'm sure I'll like the Honda. I ride VERY aggressively and no one that knows me would say that I am slow unless they are just kidding. It is a very conciderable attribute to me if a quad has a nice cushy seat. For the people that say you don't use a seat much in racing, you guys must not race much. Look through any of the magazines at any type of racing, you are CONSTANTLY on and off the seat. If you are always standing up you're obviously not utilizing body positioning like you should be.

Whether I do or do not ride aggressively doesn't matter to me, what does matter is wheater or not I'll be going home with Monkey Butt. If someone built an exact replica of the YFZ and put a soft seat on it, they would have a better quad. Just like the 'zuki and the ex- Suzuki built a replica of the 400ex and made it water cooled- who sales more units now, the ex or the LT?

Booo hooo way to get off topic, but you're wrong face it.

Will your crying ever stop? You said its a full race quad and I said it not. The fact is its not. So all your other bitching about BS means nothing. You're still wrong.

 

the yami450 sucks because it doesnt have a windshield. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]


come on guys, the only problem the yami is seeing is the upper a arms which is a minor technicality that is easily fixed. ill be the first honda owner to say, its a nice quad.

 

Yeah, no doubt it's a really nice quad, I've actually concidered saleing my R to buy one if the Honda is a let down. But Monkey Butt's a bit**! I think the 400ex seat is hard as a mother too. I really don't understand the hard seat thing for the Honda, I know the YFZ was wanting to keep the height down and it's so thin that if it was soft, you'd bottom out the seat with your a$$ and that really hurts.

I hate sounding like a siss, but I think most people don't think about this enough. Listen, a hard seat isn't going to be a determining factor for me but wouldn't it be nicer with a soft seat?
