its more reliable than e-start and i just think its pretty cool to kick instead of pushing a little button it makes it more "sporty"

and one more thing....stop trashin the damn trx450r!!! until uve ridden one (and even when u do...i mean for more than 1 or 2 times) in january or whenever it actually comes out, may be a little earlier, dont say anyhitng bad about it. i hope all u trash-talkers are passed over and over when these sexy bests come out[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] not sayin theyll be better than this or worse than that though

I can't Even begin to imagine the Pain of having to Kickstart a quad on a 90' Sand dune in the middle of 120 Degree Day in the worst desert in the world , OMG the agony ... LOL .. Just kidding buddy.. push buttons are nice ( for people with only one leg ) ..LOL


All i hear is People crying about not having a push button .. Well if you buy something and get tired of kicking it just push it up a hill and kick it into gear when your coasting down.. or tie it to the back of a buddies Pickup and drag start it .. LOL or just don't buy one ..





Peace [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The CRF450 starts easily, I see the 450R being no different.

you know, honda is 350 lbs for a reason. they took off the starter, battery, battery case and wiring which weighs roughly about 14-15 lbs.
that would put them at 335 lbs right, but i think they added 15 lbs to the frame or axel or rims for better strength and put it even with weight with the yfz450. they are both beautiful bikes but i think that the honda will be stronger, defianately more durable engine, maybe not as much horsepower but will outlast the other which counts for a lot too. i wouldn't mind either machine because they're going to rock the market. thank you

I was think the exact same thing! Good post. Next year the trx450r is going to be even better. Just like the CRF450r dirtbike, the quad will be upgraded yearly.
