No chance. Yamaha has earned my loyalty time and time again.

I'm not causing any problems, but since you have sought to single me out as the sole critic of you then I'll take the position. Your posts are off the wall and all over the spectrum. One minute it sounds like you have a good grip on what you're talking about and the next you dont have a clue. I had to stop reading the thread where you proclaimed the 1/4 mile time of your car from a dyno run. In one thread you're trying to chop up a street bike exhaust for a 4 cylinder machine and bolt it onto your single cylinder yfz, ignoring the 400+ you spent on your Yoshi. You've started a handful of threads dealing with EFI and mention it in threads having nothing to do with a yfz or with EFI. Basically you are all over the place both with your posts and your post content. So if I and a few other members dont immediately take you seriously maybe you can begin to understand why. If not, well I really wont care.

 

MX racers doesn't just get longer a-arms and axles, but also stronger, cleaner, and lighter ones. Inevitably people that race the new Suzukis will replace their stock a-arms and axle for stronger and lighter ones. I also hear alot of talk about swapping EFI for a carb...so whats the point of spending the extra money on the Suzuki? I donno bout everyone else, but I wasn't too hyped up for the new Raptor when first released and now that I've ridden one I realize how over hyped they are. Don't get me wrong though; Yamaha did some great improvements to the Raptor, but I believe the best improvement is in the handling department, not the EFI. I agree Suzuki deserves credit they from this racer. I'm sure it's gonna be a sweet quad and very competative, but like I said before it's nothing leaps and bounds over the other 450's so theirs no need to rush out and sell your 450 to buy the new Suzuki because it's "the next big thing".

BTW maddog, you hit the nail on the head with that one. Well said! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

ditto

 

i wouldnt want to buy a quad the first year they came out, i would wait a few years to see if anything went wrong with them imo.
