Saying that Honda woulod pay Dirtwheels or that Dirtwheels would except a bribe is just rediculous. If you can't believe that the 450r is that good then read another magazine. Do you think that Honda paid off every person that tested the 450r? I've read more than 5 reviews on the 450r that were excellent.
The HRC kit isn't very big, just some small mods, and fairly inexpensive. The YFZ kit is more expensive and more of a big mod. If you put the same amount of money into each machine, then see how they do. I'm not saying the 450r will make more power, it is just a more fair evaluation.

HMF's dyno numbers showed the yfz responds better to pipes and jets.
So I'm assuming it's safe to say the yamaha responds better.
I just priced a YFZ and it's the same price as what the new R will be. 6400+tax/title/license! So I guess you'll be paying extra for the power up kit from honda, while the CAM MOD is still free.
Goodluck with your dirt wheels paid to say honda is good R, because I have a feeling you guys are going to need it.

Personally, I don't really care which bike is a little faster. They are going to be real close no matter what. What I care about is HANDLING!! None of the reviews are calling the YFZ a trail machine, yet they all are saying the TRX is a great one. That says it all right there! Most riders are trail riders. Only a small handfull are MXers.
I have put in a few hours trail riding the Yamaha, and believe me it ain't no trail bike!! The TRX is just going to be the better choice for the majority of riders. Thing is, a whole bunch of people jumped the gun and already bought the YFZ.

I've taken my yz285f, and race the crf450r many many times and completely blew the graphix off of them!!! The point I am trying to make is that its the rider not the bike!!! Most people want the fastest bike made when an experienced person can take something alot slower and completely humiliate the other rider!!! Its all about the rider, for mx or trails!!! Trust me, I do the smaller and slower versus faster and bigger race all the time!!!! I have absolutely no problem humiliating people on 450's with mods and my "little" 285!!!! Riders win races!
