Hi,I like to ride MX open field riding woods.Mostly MX.I wiegh about 200 5 11.This machine was made for jumping and getting it done on the trail.I rode against a broke in LTR with the baffle out and I wheelied by it on the track and in the field in the short run.Not shure of what my top end is as it isnt broke in and I was bein kind of easy.

ok if you do mx alot or whatever then you would know that the ltr is the best quad for that and comes race ready
and they are built exspecialy for that so there is no way that your kfx THATS NOT EVEN BROKEN IN YET can ride on by the ltr with YOU GOIN EASY
no one will buy that b.s.
also if the baffle was taken out of that ltr its loosin a lot of power so it would be like racing a 400 inless he had a chrry bomb

Hi,Andrew
Your probably right about him loosing power.I tried telling him he was but he likes the noise.He is young like yourself.When I went by him in a wheelie I am pretty shure he wasnt trying to let me because of the sound his bike was making.I wasnt exacely being easy on mine at the time either.The LTR is a nice set up I will give it that.I would line you up with for pink slips when they get a pipe and the same mods as you have on yours.I am shure it will be a whole different picture then.I will be shure and tell Cameron to get his hands on the cherry bomb.In the mean time I will keep blowing by him on his LTR with my stock and not broke in yet KFX 450.LOL

haha
i did that same thing i took out my silencer for the noise
but it looses so much pwer and floats the valves like at half rev
tell him to grab that cherry and then run him but first talk a whole
bunch of poopy to him so he gets mad then tell him why hes loosing

if you can find any ltr that cant keep up with you or that beater kfx
i will sell my quad and buy a honda haha but theres no way that kawi can pull or
out perform an ltr there just is no way the ltr won bike of the year in EVERY singy
magazine and then some so your telling me the unbelievable 2006 ltr cant keep up
with a wimpy kfz? you have to be kidding me exspecialy whe everything
on the ltr is better and stronger. when you get a pipe and hot cam or whatever you want
i dare you to go race an ltr with pipe and cherry bomb if he doesnt wax your a$$
ill give mine away and buy a honda like i said

Get the kfx450r. My buddy has one and its awsome. He said its faster than his LTR450 when it was stock. The thing revs quicker than any quad I have ever ridden...by far. I doubt it will have any bugs...kawasaki did not just start makin quads. Plus, raptor = craptor. trust me, I have ridden a few. And to the fellow with the raptor 350....you could beat an LTZ in a race. An LTZ250 that is. Sorry guy, but the raptor350 is not even close to being able to beat a Z400.....but don't fret....just trade up or get you an LTZ400....
hes talkin about a 700... not a 350 bro

Hi,Andrew
All I gotta say is line em up.I am talking about a 2008 KFX 450.The magazines are calling it the best motor of the year.Quad magazine say it more than likely the most potent powerplant on the market today.The light wieght chassis handles like a dream.Kind of like you are dreaming about beating it.LOL
