I love my YFZ but it is all up to the rider. The YFZ is a smaller bike. Sits lower and a little wider. The thing to do would be go sit down on both of them. Act like you are taking corners on them, see how it feels for YOU. The bike can have all the power in the world, but if you arent comfertable or able to adjust to the bike, the power wont matter anymore because you wont be able to use it.

Black wheels, plastics, some shiny chrome pieces. Left over dirt from last year, handle bars.

I understand. i don't think either become really good until you Mod them. i rode my 450r stock for the break in only. i do think the Honda is the best bike either way Modded or stock. just my opinion though.
You broke in a 2006 450R or an older one?

No comparison. The 2006 has a totally different engine with about 20% more HP.

I have heard and read that. They also say that the motor more closely resembles the CRF motor. I think this is a great move for Honda. I will be building a 2006 in about 6-8 months hopefully that will give all the after market companies enough time to come out with some good stuff and work out the bugs.

There is somene on EXRiders that is building one already. He has photos in the 450R section.
