Default which quad is best for me...

well i really wanted a YFZ450 and i still think that is what im going to go with.
I made a post a few days ago about wanted to get one and got some good info back [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

sooo i thought i would ask what quad you recommend for me.

Ok id like to have one of the faster quads in a straight line. And pretty fast in the 1/4. I live right by a track and go there often. And also the basic off road stuff, on trails and even on sand dunes..
Also id like for it to be able to go on snowy roads, doesnt have to go threw 3ft lol, just a little bit of snow.

Soo which machine you think best fits me? i really dont know much about any of them thats why im asking. im a newb

if i go with the YFZ450.. or any quad actually. Im not gonna jump on it and go full throtle over some huge hills. Iv learned my lession on stuff like that long ago.

Ill just cruise with it, get a feel for it and just everyday easy ridding stuff. And gradually work my way up.

I think the rappy is a great quad......I have one....I think it has more straight line potential than the yfz..............I would get the rappy unless I were going to do mx......then I would get the yfz.........

i may if i could find one go on a track with it. But i dont ever see myself in a race or anything like that. It would be all just messing around.

and i just found out you can buy turbo kits for raptors and that got me excited haha.
