450r..the z400s tend to have little things go wrong with thme and are a litle higher maintenance of a quad..look for a used z400 thiough & you could save alot of money

is the 450r to hard to learn how to ride scence its kick start and it is a race quad

no...the kickstart is super easy & I would rather have it over an Estart anyday & as for learning how to ride I wouldnt reccommend it to an inexperienced quad rider, if you are familiar with sport quads then grab it or if you are comfortable learning..if not then get a kfx400 or a 400ex

Hey Kog,
I have a 450r and it is somewhat easy to start. :o)
If you do any climbing in the sand (thats what i do) just make sure u do not stall it. It is hard to get it to start back up again I think the 450r is a good choice i love mine so far
My mods on mine are, HRC kit, Sand stars front and back
and maybe a 13:8:1 piston
Does anybody know what is the lowest octance you can run in it and how much it will be a gallon??
