to yfz or to not yfz is the question...

[TheRidinLife01]

alright.....so ive been throwing the idea around for awhile. my dealer gave me a quote of 6199 otd....not too bad

let me know your input....look at sig for the quads i own right now...thats why i dont know if its worth it

all input is helpful

[450r51]

i would get ne of the new 450' over either of the two quads u have, id replace either one of them if i had the chance.... cuz ther both out dated.

take it, thats cheap. I paied 7500 OTD.

its a good quad, but if your over 6 ft tall its gona suck.. im 6'2" and the yfz is possible the most uncomfortable quad ever made

jon guetter is about 6' 1" and he did a back flip on a yfz :blah:

i wouldnt know though, im only 5'10" and i dream about having that quad. Stock it is the better than the nicest 400ex you could imagine.

The YFZ is definately worth it - I have had a 440 and a raptor - and the YFZ is by far superior to either of those quads........did I say it's DEFINATELY worth it?? LOL!!

[RaptorRacer45]

U got an MX and an XC Quad....if there both still workin for ya dont bother switchin....but if ur lookin for sometin new 2 try out id take that offer:D

[Butters]

i would do it. i like the yfz the best.

7500 :( I gave 5500 for my 450r brand new

well me on my worked 426 beats stock 450's at the races, thats why im wondering if its worth it....

also i am 6'1'' and like the way the yfz sits...only thing its needs is some bars and some riser blocks.

im still throwing around the idea....but its time to do something about that idea since this idea has been in my head since the first shoot-out of the yfz in dirt wheels......


some more info/posts please to help me lean 1 way or the other

Like you said...your WORKED 426 can beat STOCK 450s...So what about a worked 450, moral of the story, go with the 450 lol

its not just quad either...rider is 70% of it.

another thing, i would have to finance it because im pretty much broke...im selling my cr125 so i should have about 2500 in my hand when i go for one.....guy at my local dealer was telling me to expect to be paying about 65bucks a month with a $2500 down payment....sound right?

depends if you go with a 2 year or 5 year plan

i would personally want to do the 2 year if i could afford it, to get those payments done and off your back ASAP.

but you should prob sit on/ride both 450's before you go signin papers and handin over cash, to discover your not satisfied with it, or it doesnt fit your taste. Personally...idk how you guys survive, riding on those yfz rock hard seats....i sat on one at the dealership and i couldnt belive how hard they were.

well, thats because it was a 05, the 06 seats are comfy as hell, and the throttle doenst kill you either.

sell the 400 and with the money from the cr and the quad you have something interesting to spend

[aci clay]

6199 otd is real cheap, at least out here in so cal, that sounds like a o5 price. either way i think you'll love it. I'm 6'2" and i dont have a problem with it , the seat is uncomfortable after a while but what the hell you're not suppossed to sit down all the time anyway.
