Default TRX450R Will Be VERY Detuned

Dealer said the 450 will be detuned to make Green Sticker emissions. The muffler will be all corked up and the cam is mild. Anyway, they said just figure on the Honda power up kit as part of the purchase price (~$400).

If there is one thing I have learned is that dealer's don't know ****. The Honda probably will be detuned but no one will know how much until they have ridden one, including the DEALER! Not trying to come off in the wrong way, just don't like dealer's. They are right up there with lawyers in my book [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

YFZ is detuned as well, it has a green sticker, corked up muffler, retarded cam, and all the racers are ditching the stock shocks too. So I imagine it will be just about the same as the YFZ, just red and reliable.
You can buy the Honda drop in cam for less than 200 bucks and you put on the pipe, you are the same as a Yammy, for less cash.
Blind Loyalty is killing some of you.

If the blind loyalty comment was directed at me your dead wrong. I am not loyal to any brand. I don't give a damn what brand a machine is. I bought the Yamaha because in my opinion it was the only machine worth buying at the time. If the Honda had been released at that time then I may have purchased it instead. Unless a factory wants to start paying me to promote their machines, they can all kiss my @ss!

I was referring to who ever has it , obviously not you. You said nothing about either quad, so why would I assume you were loyal to anything?

yeah, the dealers probably trying to rip you out of $400 more on the sale. Hey sandneck, the YFZ shocks are as good as aftermaret, its just that alot of pro racers are sponsered by suspension companies, and get free or reduced prices on suspension, and their sponsors want to see their products on their bikes.
