I just sat on a 450R Honda, and it fits me much better than the YFZ. The seat is a bit taller and softer, and the handlebars are taller as well. Whereas the YFZ feels like I bend over to grab the bars and I'm on top of this little thing, the Honda R feels very "right". I am 6 feet even and 200 pounds.

The best way for me to describe it is halfway inbetween the YFZ and my Raptor for ergonomic layout.

And boy is it light, pick up either end easily one handed.

Me likes.

 

Its all true!
I am 6'4" it fits me better as well.

 

I am 6' 1" ... and the 450R ergos are very, very nice for me...borderline perfect.

I do have 1 complaint tho: at the bottom of the tank, when my feet are in a certain position on the pegs, my inner knees rub against the very bottom edge of the tank, which is quite sharp. If I adjust my feet ever so slightly on the pegs, this doesnt happen, but it happend a couple times riding this weekend. I may shave the bottom sharp edge off the tank. Otherwise, I love how narrow it is at the seat/tank junction, and then the bulge on the top of the tank helps to grip the quad with your inner knees.

Also, I *thought* possibly those pix that were going around with that bolt in the red plastic right next to the fuel petcock was possibly there to pull the red plastic away from the frame ever so slightly to line its surface up with the tanks surface. Either that, or it was just to hold the broken piece of plastic in place...even tho there is a rubber grommet directly behind that part of the red plastic, on both sides of the quad. I *seriously* doubt Honda is putting that bolt on future 450Rs, as some people have said.....unless....my theory of that screw aligning the plastic surfaces better, is true....
