it's just what I expected.... lightweight, tons of power, piggy-back shocks, kick-start, no reverse, good looks, and you know it will have Honda's handling capabilities and reliability..... I'd say it's PERFECT!!!!

and stock for stock, it will probably be the fastest quad ever made... and everyone was expecting something more??? I'd say you better call Curits Sparks, because this 450R is the best thing to EVER hit a showroom floor

 

I got in late to the dealership to reserve one, so I am 8th on the list. A 250R with a modern engine. Perfection!

 

amen.....

 

ha ha i want one. but i haven't even owned a sport bike yet i'm lookin into a buying a 400ex this spring then maybe a couple years after that i'll be good enough to ride one. is it really kick start? why does everyone like the kick start so much i would much rather have eletric. easyer for me, is the kick start better for racing or something???

 

hahaha. foolish 4 stroke honda fans, tune your engines to the note of D! (get it?) wait and see, you'll be surprised when the blue blur whips past you in a cloud of dust.

The soul of a TRX250R and the heart of a CRF? maybe the technology of a 1989 TRX250R and the heart of a CRF that's been chain smoking for 30 years.

 

the kick start makes it lighter.No starter or battery.

 

Yes, i guess the yfz would look like a blue blurr when I pass it on my new 450r.

Now on serious note, I think they will be very close, i like the 450r way better anyways, even if i don't know how good they go. That makes me laugh when a suzuki owner tries to insult a honda.

 

i really like how people trash 4-strokes when now days 2-strokes aren't even the top bike anymore. after the yfz came out the banshee wasn't even being talked about. actually even after the raptor came out epople started buying raptors over the banshee the raptors not faster but like most 2-strokes there out dated no body really want them anymore you have to be willing to pay 4 grand for a 250r now days to buy one. and who wants to buy a going on 20 year old bike for 4000. com'on get real. and the blaster ain't that the biggest joke on wheels that things like a box you have to spend at least 2500 on the thing just to be able to keep up with anything. and the banshee well like i said banshees are out dated not to many people want them anymore. everyones thinkin new like 450r's and yfz450's those are suppost to the fastest bikes ever made (from what i hear).

 

do you even have a real high performance quad, kid? do you even have a quad? All i see in your sig is "i wish i had an almost-fast 4 stroke 400" So until you actually own something somewhat fast (or anything at all) shut the f*ck up and don't call out what you don't understand, dunce.


and i'm laughin' right back at the guy who said that a suzuki owner dissing honda is funny. it don't matter what it says on the gas tank, friend. it's what it says on the timeslip!

 

eh... sorry if i came off a little harsh, rush kid. just don't get on the bad side of a hard core 2 stroke owner and it won't happen again.
