I've heard nothing but great things about that KFX450 plus it has electric start and reverse.</end quote></div>

I can help with that; it's slower than can-am/honda/yamaha/suzuki/ktm, the suspension could use some refinement and the seat is harder than any yfz's has ever been.

If you don't need the speed of a Raptor then you don't need a 450. Sounds like you will be very happy with the 400EX. They are a great all-around trail quad.

I'm not sure if he's talking about the same one I am...the KFX450 EFI???? I've heard the power is really snappy and the suspension is great.

Yeah I'm talking about the KFX450, the only real sport quad Kawi makes. It's a good machine but from the mouth of most who've been on one without buying it, it doesn't quite measure up.

I personally felt too uncomfortable on it to spend any real seat time with it.
