LTR450 VS HONDA 450 VS YFZ450
1fasst - no can make it this weekend to gonza sun for riding. Maybe next sunday. I had heard that the sheriff watches gonza more then chole for riders? Is that true? Also, can I take a trailer out to where you ride in gonza? I got rid of my truck in nov so will have to pull my quads out there on a 12 ft trailer behind an excursion. My brother moved to the soledad mission a few weeks ago so I can take my toy hauler out that way to ride as well...
I'd go to soledad or all the way out to los banos to test new mods I'd make on my race quads because depending on who's at the gate at hollister I'd get hassled for my blaster and 90. My Z434 is down right now with a bent axel right now.

I heard that the new ltr 450 has alot of horsepower and could out run the other two 450's. Also they have more to ofer then the other two 450 fifty's from what I saw on the suzuki website I this is just stuff that I heard I don't know if its true or not.
Me I want the honda 450 they ARE SO DURABULE. THEY WILL NEVER BREAK.

Since I own an LTR and have ridden my friends '06 450R and YFZ's, completly stock the 450R usually wins out of the showroom with the YFZ in 2nd and the LTR in 3rd. BUT, as soon as you remove the airbox lid, remove the peashooter/spark arrestor and add the $40 cherry bomb to the LTR, the LTR takes both the 450R and YFZ's with the same mods(with jetting of course) except for the CB(which is not offered for those others). All three still had the stock pipes/headers. Keep in mind that rider ability also plays a big factor.
Not a bad outcome for a $40 part and about 5 min in effort.
Granted, you can throw $$$ into any of these quads and try to 1-up the other but I was giving examples of bone stock 06 quads with the most minor mods done secondly. I was really close to getting the YFZ myself in Jan till I heard the LTR was being released shortly. I'm now glad I waited for the LTR.

funny,
My friend mark has a yfz 2006, another friend has an 06' 450r...havent seen anyone yet with the ugly suzuki (and i own suzuki products)...the yfz owns the 450r hands down and mark is a much bigger rider than chris. (215 lbs vs. about 150lbs)
I'm going for an 07' Raptor I think...its just too pretty to pass up. I'll use the vinson for making the trails and mowing things down for the raptor to glide easily through [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

What's funny is that you're knocking something you've never ridden or don't know anyone that has one. And since you only list a Vinson as what you own, the difference between your Vinson and the listed sport quads are night a day. I've ridden the older 660 and the new 700 raptors. The 700's are bad a$$ but not for the type of riding I do.
The LTR came with some of the mods I was going to do to which ever 450 I bought and have done to my other quads already (wider/lower/smaler tires/rezzy's/etc) along with EFI - it was an easy decision. But like I said, I was really close to geting the YFZ just b4 the LTR came out.

hold on a sec there.... I'm not tripping at all... been on these forums way to long to take anything personal....
you can talk all you want about zuki's and I'll just laugh...along with yamaha, honda, ktm, & polaris, all of which I own but don't really care if someone else likes or not.
I read your post completly and saw your profile as well. I was simply commenting on your post to me to which I wanted to get across to you that you should try the LTR wether it's ugly in your opinion or not. As I stated before, I was really close to getting the YFZ before... I don't buy based opon looks because I end up changing up my toys anyway (you can see that in my page).
have a good one
