....I went to look at a YFZ today and sat down on it....started hopping on it... pretending had the wind flowing through my hair.... LOL j/k.... but man its a sweet looking bike....and it feels right.... so I'm going to try to find a Suzuki dealer nearby tomorrow. If it doesn't blow me away with how it feels (as far as stance and where the handle bars are and all that) then I think I am gonna go for the YFZ. what the hell... you only live once.. Not too many Cali people in these forums, but if there are any, is $7200 out the door a good price for the 2005 SE YFZ?? I haven't been able to find a better price here in Northern Cali.

Actually there are lots of Cali guys and gals on here, just have to find the right forum thread topic. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Liked the YFZ, huh? I cant say if that is a good price or not for Cali. I'll try and find some one with some answers on that.

I have a YFZ, Raptor 660, and Z400. For hard dune running, jumping, wide open riding there is no comparison, it's YFZ all the way.

For dune cruising, the Raptor is great, comfy and huge torquey powerband. Nice handling with a wider front end and wider axle.

Trails the Z400 is the best. Ergos are perfect, handling is great, good power, very smooth, ride it all day without getting tired. The Z is the best all around machine of the three for me.

But the YFZ is the fastest if you're worried about that sort of thing.

i waould say the kfx/z400 i just bought an 04 kfx and i love it...ive been riding my friends z400 for over a year now and it is by far the best all around machine. the z/kfx is great for trails, and it is so easy to ride the track with one
