Sorry to get off the subject but i think the kick start on the 450 is horrible. I've read in magazines and many people hope they will make electric start this year they still havent released the '06. The electric start on the YFZ gives yamaha an advantage I'm just telling you what the magazine said.

I never saw what was so bad about kick start. I like them better cause you dont have to worry about the battery quiting on you and it keeps the atv lighter. I drive my 450r, 250r and 250x in the winter and never had trouble starting them.

i own a honda, but its farm, but i think a honda wll always start well, as mine is 12 years old and i can kick start it 1st maybe 2nd time. but i have a raptor aty the mo, so i dont have to consider kicking it lol.
