I have 3 questions that I am hoping someone can answer about the new YFZ-450.

1. Do the wheels have the same bolt pattern as the honda 400 or 250r?

2. Does anyone make nerf bars for this machine?

3. Any other mods that would have to be made before racing MX?

thanks

 

I have 3 questions that I am hoping someone can answer about the new YFZ-450.

1. Do the wheels have the same bolt pattern as the honda 400 or 250r? NO its the same as the raptor

2. Does anyone make nerf bars for this machine? gyt-r and ac should have them very soon

3. Any other mods that would have to be made before racing MX? i was at the track the other day and kory ellis had his out there. He said you just need to widen it. He has +2 a-arms, axle, gyt-r pipe and he said the stock shocks seem fine but they should be revalved for your weight. I rode mine around the track sunday and I had it completely stock (spark arrester in). It was still pretty fast. I was only lossing a little time here and there and it was the first time on the quad. My friend has a 440 ex all tricked out. Our riding abilities are equal.

thanks

 

Phil is Kory pretty cool? Does he answer question pretty readily if you don't know him? I'm a fan of his and the next time he's down here at Boone I'm going to ask him a couple of questions about his old z and how he compares it to the yfz. I've heard what he says in mags and on the internet but I'd like to get some more in-depth info straight from him. Do you race pros or pro production also?
