Title: YFZ450 or Raptor 660
Post by: strtrcr06 on February 12, 2006, 01:21:36 PM
Which one is better for a beginner a YFZ or a raptor. And which one do you get more for your money. I have always ridden 4x4's  but now am interested in sport quads. Currently have a rancher at.

Gotta remember that the Raptor 660 has more then enough power to rip your arms off. YFZ450'd be my choice.

if your going to stay in the sport a yfz is they way to go. the raptor is just out dated ??? but if your not shur id get a 400 like a ltz or trx.

YFZ450 ;) They got a raptor700 out now, that you got to check out. But the YFZ will not disapoint you.

for a beginner i would go with something closer to a 400 to start out with. but out of the yfz or raptor, raptor is more set up for the trail riding while yfz is more steup for track and racing

id agree with wheely boy you might be further ahead looking into that LTZ400 being that it is very versital. awsome trails riding, and speed on demand+++ reverse
