heres how you make a yfz beat a atk450, rip out the yamaha chunk of metal and its not needed crap, then buy a ktm 380 2 stroke and cut away enough crap so it can be mounted and very shortley you will have what shuold beat an atk (finally beat them pesky american quads).

make sure you cut out the bottom motor mount and the the two front motor/oil res mounts need to go and then gusset the whole ting before you put it back together, and make sure you replace that weak subframe as well.

what did you do buy a frame and couldnt find a good used motor?

or did you buy a new yfz didnt take care of it and blew the motor and found the ktm really cheap??

now if it was a 525 4stroke engine that would be sweet and you would have a nice resale value, but you put a two stroke in the frame expect no more the 2 grand for an average build and 4 grand if you get all excited with the frame because their isnt a market for two strokes anymore.

Just buy a honda and you won't have to worry about it.

i know 2 strokes dont have the resale a 4 stroke has, im just building it for fun, i bought a new frame off ebay and all the parts off ebay have everything but plastic, swingarm,pipe and im sitten at 1600.00 now. and for what im building it for sand we all know once bored and stroked sitten at 550 cc wa all know it will beat the crap out of any 4 stroke for alot less money. and im sure you will be into all your quads alot more than this. if i was going for mx this would not be the ride. thats why i sold my yfz for my atk.

well you got your yfz and i got my atk/cannondale, and im sure your yfz will never have to be rebuilt. you guys sure are in love with your yfz,s do you sleep next to it to. just wondering is it possible there are other good quads.

I like the 450r but I am not biased to other brands.
