just wondering, I have been reading all the hype on a honda 450EX, but I have been reading the motocross mags lately and they are pretty unimpressedwith the 450, and much more impressed with the yamaha426, why arent people crying for a 426 quad instead of hondas and cannondales and the like? Plus yamaha is the only one that has the guts to build a two stroke, albiet 15 years old, why couldnt they make a sweet 426, do their chassis really handle that bad?

 

Yes Yamaha really handles that bad atleast the banshee does, I have never tried a raptor.But from all the people that actually own the 450 and 426 everyone has said the 45 blow is away. This is just hearsay (sp) so don't take it like i have ridden both and compared them.
