In fact I would be willing to bet that the new Honda 650 wont be near as fast as their 450r so...I wouldnt be suprised if Kaw, and Suz dont come out with a 600 size bike some time in the near future too
Ever heard of a Kaw KFX700 dude?

Boy your not biased toward Yamaha, LOL. You act as the best you mention is factual, it is an opinion on what is the best, plus there is tons of different uses. What about the Z or 450R, they are good trail machines and race machines, Im sure there are plenty on these forums that believe that those 2 are the best for them whatever the purpose may be.

4x4......... Polaris Sportsman 800. It's freakin' 800 cc's. C'MON!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

4x4 runner-up.... Yamaha Grizzly 660.


Polaris is only 760cc, not a true 800

I would go for the Prarie 700...V-Twins kick butt.

Actually I am not biased toward Yamaha b/c I said that YFZ is best MX and Raptor is good on the Trails and XC but If you read the thread carefully I said that the Predator is best overall b/c it has a perfect Mix of Trail and MX. The 450r is not the best MX and is at best an average trail bike jus b/c it wasnt built for trails & the Z400 would prolly be a pretty good pick but it never crossed my mind so...

Why do you think one is the best, or one isn't? There is no best, get a clue man![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

Moto26 lets be honest here does really matter, I told you why I like the predator and I understand each quad has its good points and bad & there is no one quad that rises above the rest. All of these threads are opinionated and they are truely a waste of time to argue over

well personally i think it is the honda 250r...mainly because of the reliability...to be almost 20 yrs. old and still hanging with the big boys today is just awesome....the reason i asked this on the yamaha forum is because my buddy thinks the only thing i like is honda and i wanted to see if some yamaha riders feel the same....so what is your favorite quad ever...could be old or new...and please try to explain why......
OLD school:
The TRX250R would definately get my vote as best all around (not including utility uses).
It is very versatile, reliable, can be built up to achieve pretty good HP #'s, and the handling to this day is awesome! Good for sand, MX, trail, whatever!

New stuff:
Still a toss up here. Both the TRX450R and the Yamaha YFZ 450's are definately a step ahead of the old R. Obviously I chose the YFZ over the TRX450R, but my experiences with all the above are mainly in the sand at the dunes. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I think the best all around quad ever built was the K-mart BIG WHEEL........When I was a kid I would do all kinds of things with it until I wore holes in the tires........LOL
