My older brother is 6' even and 280lbs.
so what football team do ya'll play for? LOL
LOL The looks I get when I tell people I'm the runt is priceless. Well, I'm not the tallest and I'm not the heaviest so I guess that makes me the runt. My dad was 6'5" and 290lbs.

Anyways, you won't look funny on a 400 or 450, and it should be pretty comfortable. Like someone said earlier, the only thing you may want to do is get a set of rox risers or taller bars. I haven't done that yet, but I'm going to. Just like with a sled, everybody adds risers just to make it more comfortable while your riding and standing. That's the only time it makes a difference or is needed.

What do you all think of the Raptor 700? Arent those a little bigger than the 450s? Ive had a KFX700 before, but I have a feeling the Raptor is a bit faster. (which I dont mind)

Yeah, the Raptor is a bit bigger. You will really have to park your fanny on a few seats.

cannondale, you can pick em up pretty cheap used and I am 6' 1" or 6' 2" and that fits me the best I sat on the YFZ and the R and the didn't feel a whole lot bigger than my 300ex and my cannondale fits me perfect, it is also faster than the YFZ and R [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img], and if you get the program for it then with a few little changes you can make it even faster [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I love everything about my cannondale and I would recommend one to anyone who is looking for a fast and comfortable quad check em out if your interested

(PS any questions you might have about them PM me i'll help you out)

I went from a KFX700 to a YFZ and it was a good move. If you were able to ride agressive on the KFX you will manhandle the YFZ like it's a kids' quad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] It's a lot faster and handles 100000x better. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
