got her all cleaned up

[YFZ450Ridr]

Went over my new bike, and cleaned it up real well. took off a few things and added the heal guards. i didnt like the bumper at first, but its growing on me, eventually a prm summit bumper will get mounted up. i like how it has the real clean look to it, im not sure if i want graphics or not. what do you guys think of it?

I like it :cool:

[bsjoe]

no offense, but the yamaha tuner graphics are ugly


I havea yfz450 too, this winter its getting torn down and getting frame black with nerfs red, heels black, arms red and bumpers and grab bar black also black lakers plastic

I suggest spastic designs (sp? pretty sure im right) they have some nice graphics imo.. or if u have the money to spend..

even cooler imo but cant afford it rly unless i wait a while


^^ i think the red version of the mech graphics would look so sweet on black plastics and red/black color theme like i described on mine

[BlasterEaten250]

sweet, 2 people in my neighborhood just got yfz's.

that's low compared to mine, riding with boot's is 10X easyier with it up

[LittleMissE]

I like your quad the way it is I dont think you should change a thing!!!

[trick250r]

sweet bike... hey, if you've got a barpad around, like the ones for the bars w/o the cross bar, cut the two mounts off for the cross bar and slap the new bar pad on there. thats what i did with mine and they flex like the flexx bars... reduces arm pump. keep posting, who cares if people get tired of looking at it :p

[Jonesy]

Nice ride.

If you really want to make it shine, use some tire foam, pledge, or the like to spray the plastics and then wipe them down really well. It will make it look 100% better and the mud cleans up easier after riding

[brapbrap13]

very nice! what did u pay if u dont mind me asking?

[DieselBoy]

try the turtle wax vinyl/plastic shine. it works great.


amazing bike man, how much did it cost you? i'm gonna sell my 2 bikes and buy one i've decided.

If you are saying to cut the bar that goes across 7/8 bars then you are an idiot. The whole point of that bar is to give it the added strength. With out it, the bars a as bad as stock bars if not worse.

Looks good, dont see to many 04 SE's around.

you realize that will warp and weaken your bars right?

Is your YFZ leaning or is it just me?

my driveway is slanted at a wierd angle.

no my shifter is not high, i adjusted it that way. i hate low shifters because my boots are thick.

thanks for the complements guys. so far im really liking this bike. lots of torque and soft suspension from factory. it absolutley blows my z400 away in every aspect!

i gave 4350 for it, plus he gave me an extra seat(a soft 06 seat is on it now) extra back plastic, and a whole box full of gaskets and seals for just about eveything.

[bigbadbrad]

what did your parents make you take off the budwiser graphics off of it? looked better with them on, other then that looking pretty good

[YFZ450Ridr]

i chose to take off the budweiser stickers, i really didnt want them. some were uneven anyway. i didnt think they looked all that good, im just going to get a real graphics kit.

no it wont... ive had my bars on three quads in the past five years and they've been like that. not warped at all... ive even took a couple of spills on them and they're not bent. the next question you're probably going to ask is how hard i ride. i race mx just about every weekend and ive never had a problem with them bending or (of course) breaking.
