About 25 hours on the 450r, about 10 hours on the yfz. Maybe 30 mins a weekend on each. Like I said, I ride with these guys most every weekend. I ride their machines as hard as they ride my shee's. It might be a hard concept for most to grasp, but we all like each others rides for different reasons. IMO, I like the yfz better than the 450r, simply because of the motor. Maybe I would like the 06 450r better, but I doubt I will ever get the chance to ride one.

Frankly, I wouldn't recomend a z or ex to anyone. Where I ride [sand flats, and sand dunes], the ex and z both leave alot to be desired. Again, I don't hate honda, and would love to buy a 250r {atc or trx}. It just tickles me, how honda owners think there **** doesn't stink. If the ex is more reliable than z...so be it. There is no doubt the z is a better performance machine than the ex. There is no doubt the yfz is a better performance machine than 450r, and there is no doubt the raptor 700r is a better performance machine than...........oppps. Where's your machine honda?

Priceless entertainment???? What you talkin about???? The bill is on the way. LOL. What I mean by good information is information I can use and apply to my rides. Not people opinions. Not warrior vs raptor threads. Solid facts about what mods work and what doesn't on my bikes. Not hearsay, and people talking out there @ss. Rider11x, why would you want to go where I go for solid info on my bikes. You don't own a banshee do you?

Ride a wheelie going up a steep 75foot dune. I'd love to see it. Are you sure that isn't your light front end coming up un expectidly? If all I had to ride was a 400ex, I'd quit riding. And I'm not kidding.

I can say which one is better, for me. I like the yfz better. I wouldn't buy one tho. Instead of spending $7000 for a stock yfz, I'd rather buy a 250r for $2500 and sink another $3000 in it. Strip it down, pc the frame, hop up the motor, elka shocks, ect, ect.

What irritates me is!
Those 6-packs work pretty good.

You've obviously never ridden an EX. Just another kid takling out his butt.
Thats because you feel you have to make up for a lack of riding skill by going fast in a straight line. I have better things to do then worry about tempermental engines and powerbands smaller than your microscopic d!ck. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
