I'm considering selling my scrambler and getting a 450. Don't get me wrong, the scrambler is an awesome 4x4(and prob the fastest) but i was looking for somthing lighter and more towards freestyle (wheelies, big air), trail riding, and some dragging......What ive been learning is that these two bikes(trx 450, yfz450) are the best in these catagories, so some feed back on how good they really perform(from the owners themselfs) would be great, thanks alot......


Also, this past weekend i went to a friends house and he had a raptor that he let me try out, As far as mods go...it was piped and jetted for all i know, but the thing ripped. I had road it down a long concrete road and each gear it flew, but as for everything else...ehh it was different i should say. It has a monsterous engine in it, but the design was wierd, felt like i was really high off the ground and the front end has like no weight to it so like everytime i tap the gas it would want to come up(not that this is a bad thing) but i just think its a poor design for such a nice engine, and as far as mx and other things go besides dragging, it wouldnt perform too good...just my opinion, please hit me with imput if you agree or dissagree...thanks again

 

the front end ant light, its the power bro =), anyhoo ive read that the yfz jumps like a dream and is really quick off the start and has got some nice suspension

 

the 450's probably will be the machines of the future. cost more now though
