what are the pros and cons of a 450r?, the kickstart is a pro for me because i dont like electric start, im mainly look to see if there are any cons on the 450r over the yfz450.

well agian its wat u want and wat riding u do. lol. But i chose the 450R because of the suspension. soo it has a little less power than the yfz but that can be easily fixed. i had no problem keepin up with him at the dunes. little bit cheaper lol. overall look of the quad, and 450R's have a lot of potential. sooo agian ur choice.

I rode my friend's yfz with similar mods to mine and i was not impressed. You have to rev the piss out of the thing to make power, and my trx beat his every race, from a roll and a dig. The TRX makes so much low end torque in comparison. I almost bought the YFZ, but i now i am glad that i chose red.

You just answered your own question! 450R man, I chose it just for that reason and at the end of the day I am happy with what I got. I have no trouble with yfz's, I don't beat them every time but that's just part of it. The R is much more forgiving on the body aswell.
