raptor350 is right, there really is nothing better then the 06 yfz for the track

I will have to say the yamaha is the perfect quad for me,I race alot of XC races and some MX and it is bad a$$!!!
I have ridden some 450R and they seem to fit some people better than others so good luck with whatever you end up With, and my 2006 YFZ450 is on the way from ARS POWERSPORTS

Just received my 06YFZ450 and I LOVE IT. But either way the Honda 450 is Bad Azz as well, you can't go wrong with nither of them.

Did I say that out loud Honda a good bike.

TRUE, BUT look at your local races around the US and I guarantee that the YFZ has won more. 450R' s are great bike though.

Can the YFZ 450 stand a chance with the Raptor 700R

53yfz450 · August 25, 2005, 08:15:12 PM

i got the new dirt wheels and they have an article in there about the 700 and the 450 but havnt read it yet. my guess would be on a track the 450 will blow it away in a drag the 700 might pull away a little. $:-\$

i would still go with the yfz 450. or the suzuki 450 that is about to come out, on a magazine article one of the pros said that it was the best quad that he has ever ridden

You can't compare a YFZ or 450R with a pos raptor.
