i aint gonna lie... i didnt read those stories you wrote... lol
but... if you dont like the yfz's... then i dont think you will like the 450r either...
and a cdale is kind of a risk like fishlab said...

 

no biggie about the questions. (im just hoping there is at least one person who is bored enough to answer them lol)

ya im thinking the 450r will be about identical as the yfz (suspension i guess is catered more toward trail riding...but i think engine department will be the same as yfz)

its so hard to judge a quad when its not sitting here with a key in it. i keep thinking ok predator sounds like a nice all around package...then i look at the cdale again, being 4200...and think if i did have a small problem its not like i would still be behind...

if i were to get the predator i would have to add 2k...where as with the Cdale it would be even-up.

 

But your c-dale could look like this. Melt down I don't know what happen, but I have never heard of a atv doing this.

 

Let's try this look at this site HPD . Look under models then look up the Predator. They are one of the largest Polaris after market companies. There are many others that carry stuff for the Pred., but these guys will be a great start for your research. (they have a programable cdi [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]). AAEN is a very good second choice. And yes you can get an extended warranty.
