I guess it depends on how you ride! The 450r has a tall first gear but it can be changed easy enough by changing the sprockets.
Are you ready to go from a 3ooex to a 450r because that is a huge difference. I like honda that's my opinion, the 450r is faster and an all around better machine. Hope that helps!

From the expierences i have had i would take any honda even a trx90 over any polaris. The 90 might not be faster but i cannot wreck my 90 if i had money on it. Any honda will outlast 2 polaris's . 450r all the way. Put a HRC kit and KN filter in it and for the most part i thought that eliminated alot of that tall 1st gear. My dealer threw in the HRC kit free so that will even be a nice cheap mod. The 450r will smoke a dead predator
