Poll: Are you pleased with the new 450R?
Yes! It is a step in the right direction, now if we could get a CRF motor in a 3 wheeler chassis. I am also pleased with the factory sponsorship. I cannot believe the whining about: it doesn't have this or that. Please shut up, if you don't like it there is a ton of other stuff to buy! The Yamaha is nice too! We'll see in January which is faster and which one handles better.
From what I have seen in pictures, I like the looks and the specs are nice. Reverse isn't necessary for most and even though I am 30, kick starting is not going to scare me away. As has been said before, 90% is rider and 10% is the 4 wheeler. I just am astounded by the crybabies and all the whining that has taken place, just be glad that the 2 biggest and best manufacturers have set the standards high for the lesser manufacturers and the competition will only be good for the sport and chioces are the consumers friend!
So whiners, quit wasting the posting space and go ride!

Yes .. Because of this the Big 4 are going to start competing with each other and the prices of the atv's will drop and get upgraded every year not to mention they will start sponsoring pro riders like Farr,Gust,Ellis .. and the popularity for the Sport will take a big leap .. i wanna see bobardier,Suzuki and Kawasaki start making 450's Oh but wait Nothing could compare to the YFZ huh .. GO FIGURE

I have mixed feelings so far, they cheaped out on the carb and I don't like how the compression is set. I like the looks of it and it looks like it should handle well, I just can't wait to get mine!
