YAMAHA has yet to pull a stunt of such nature..rash claims.. to be quite frank with you all, i have no problem with honda it is just very disturbing when people make such comments like the one above without doing thier homework. L-A-A-A-A-T-E
What's that smell? Must be more YAMAHA BS. Go away little troll boy.......
Link, Yamaclown?

The honda 450r is the slowest of the 450's and slower than a raptor, bomb 650. Easier to get more HP out of a raptor than a honda 450. Stock for stock, who realy cares. Very few people on this internet site have a stock anything.
