yfz 450 or raptor 700

[wickedinhere]

hi this is my first post and i need some info
i have been out of atving for some years the last bike i owned was a banshee and we rode in sand mostly. i went and looked at a raptor and 450 yesterday and i got the fever again for a new bike i really like the 450 but cant seem to make up my mind between the 2 what would you choose?

Depends on what you plan on doing with the quad. MX, GNCC, trails, or dunes. I would get the yfz for MX or GNCC and the raptor for trail rides or dunes. If I were you try to find someone with a raptor and the yfz and get on it and that should help. I bought a raptor and a month later bought the yfz. The raptor was too tall and felt tippy and the yfz felt just right.

the raptor seems to high to me thats why i was leaning toward the 450. mainly i will just be riding in the wide open area no trails or dunes.

Get the yfz you will not be disapointed at all:D

Again, this depends on what type of riding you plan. The new Raptor 700 isn't much different in height and width from the YFZ. ;)

there was no need to repeat what was already said.i can read and the raptor does sit higher than the 450.

if you dont want peoples' opinions dont ask for them... when they quote what was said and confirm it, it is just giving more basis to what was reviously posted... i dont know if you meant it like this, but you came across as a real *** with your last post... so like i said, when you ask for opinions you gotta take the good and the bad, so dont complain...

ps- i'm glad you can read

[wickedinhere]

wow i am glad you cleared that up for me .

thanks again, i thought the 450 forum would be a good place to ask about a 450
guess not, maybe i should buy an outdated 250r or maybe two. one to crap on and one to cover it up with.

easy there tough guy

ask questions about yfzs yes, ask "which one should i get?" thats like going to a toyota dealership and asking if you should get a honda... not too bright...
and how you gunna try and talk crap about the 250r- its not a legend for nothing...

and yah i have a 250r, but at least i was man enough to know what i wanted to get... that my bike of choice, and i wouldnt trade it for another... but i didnt have to ask a bunch of guys what they thought i should get before i got it...

i'll tell ya what- go get your 450 or your 700, and come down to az and i'll show you what an old POS 250r can do...

Im shutting this one down...

and like what was already said.. If you dont want someone elses opinion.............




DONT ASK :rolleyes:
