Don't get the YFZ or the 350. The 350, you will get bored, and the YFZ, beacause it's hard to wheelie on it somehow, and it's mostly for track.

The Raptor 660 is a wheelie machine actually. I can't stop the front end from coming up....It's easy to wheelie this thing. I just don't see getting a 350 when you can get a 660 for slightly more? Lower the 660 with a kit (same or shorter than a 350) and adjust the throttle screw down if there is too much power. Grow into it. Don't outgrow the 350 then want more power 6-12 months down the road. I suggest buying a good condition, used Raptor 660.

Don't waste your time with the 350, you'll outgrow it next weekend. I have no problems riding a wheelie on my 660. Be prepared to buy a new grab bar though, because the quad comes up quick and the next thing you know, you're on the ground looking up at it.

its sooo light that you dont need reverse pushing it is a breeze ( especailly if youve been lifting weights like you said) lol it kicks *** period yfz450 or 450r you cant go wrong!
