well heres my opinion,

either get the yfz, or the honda 450R,

both are great bikes, but if you get the honda you will have to gear it down for the woods.

or you can wait and buy the kfx 450, but there pretty expensive.

i wouldnt buy the suzuki because its kinda wide for real woods riding,

if it was me id get the honda,

good luck ;)

yea.honda or the yamaha id go with the honda cuz well its a honda.lose a tooth on the front sprocket for the woods.the suzukis are nice bikes but there wide and have terrible ground clearance.i went riding with a guy and any kind of little rut would high center him.

Wait for the new kawasaki because it has reverse which would help for trails.

ive been leaning to the honda, ive got alot of parts for it. ive only ridden the yamaha in the sand though. stock to stock which stands out, and with minimal mods? oh and im not really interested in the kawi, its heavier and the aluminum frame bothers me. thanks for the comments:D
