YFZ450 vs. Predator500
#12
Just to let you guys know my friend has a YFZ-450 and my brother has a Pred 500. I took the Pred and raced from a dig pulled on the Yfz very easily only at 3/4 or less throttle. Then we did it 4 more times after that one being from a roll on and still was consistant. Now He is a pretty good rider with me beind fair and not laying into it all the way becaue of the short streach that we ran on. I am not biased because I do not own one so I have reason to pick sides of the two, plus the YFZ is a little hesitent from a start?????

The predator wouldn't stand an ice cubes chance in hell racing either one of the 450's. Especially the YFZ.

wow this guy is on crack! I only went to the dunes once when my preddy was stock. I did not have any yfz's wax me. I lost consistantly to modded 450's honda and yamaha by a quad length on comp hill. I never got to race a stocker but stock for stock or mod for mod it will come down to rider. This is my only experiance and i am being as honest as possible. I own and race yamaha jet skii's and have a yamaha quad so I am not biased. One place I do agree with bad 450 is on an mx track. I think the 450's are lighter and jump better. In a straight line drag it will be close.

I just started playing around with my buddies on the short TT track and have been on a high-speed flat track (once). The preddy has the nads to keep up and win, it's rider ability that will win these kinds of races.
My bikes have clamp-on K&N filters, high rev CDI and LTE pipes. Currently talking with Nicholas Cycle on a few other goodies...
