The few reviews that are out there, indicate that it will be a very good all-around machine! Who wrote the review you read? Have they even ridden one????

My guess from what I've read and know of Honda sport quads: The 300ex and 400ex are good all around quads. The 450r will be a good all around quad as well, but it will be geared towards high performance in all types of riding (trails, MX, GNCC, dunes, Jumping, etc). I don't think it will be the quad for everyone, but for those who require (want) more power and handling in a Honda product (myself included), the 450r is the quad to have.

The 450R engine is one that will like to rev. For trail riding, that isn't always the hot ticket. I prefer something that will lug down (like the 400EX or 300EX), because on the trails I ride I never get out of 3rd gear. But, if you look at the geometry of the 450R, the chassis should make a SUPERB trail machine, even without any mods. You will just have to learn to work the revy motor if you want to trail ride it.
