If you want the hottest quad on the market, buy the YFZ. You'll be the envey of all your friends and most of us will be jelous. And if you don't like it, it will be easy to get rid of.

Hello everyone im new here so... yea lol..... Ok me myself would go with the yfz.. also in a drag the yfz has always one but it didnt win when the drag was to top speed cause the raptor had a 2mph difference... heres some info on the yfz from the pros that did the first rides... POWER: This thing has gobs of power. it has super fast throttle response and revs out like a two stroke racer. The rev limit is up there at 10,750 rpm and it pulls like gang busters all the way to it. it has a strong mid range hit. if u hold the throttle open it will continue to pull on the top end, and it neer really falls off the power band. in drag races against a Raptor it outran it everywhere except in top-end mph, where the Raptor had about a two mph edge.

HANDLING: It likes to slide. you can slide it with ease and it is extremely predictable. aim it and it goes where u point it. you can change linnes at will and go outside or inside. it sits low and has a low c.g (center of gravity). the high speed tracking is also very good. there is no swap or wandering on the front or back ends. jumping is where it really stands out from its competition. it is extremely stable in the air and you can fling it off jumps with confidence. it is so light and the mass is so cnetralized that you can move it around in the air unlike any quad ive ridden before. it really sets a new standard for high performance quads, i feel.

SUSPENSION: The suspension is not as plush and soft as the raptors at low speeds. But as u give it some speed its fine. there is plenty of adjustment for the front and rear shocks to dial them in for any size of skill rider.

Finnaly lol
