I am finally going to be able to but a quad in the next month or so after a few years of being out of the loop. I have been trying to gather info on all the 450's out . I'm familiar with everything except the Kawi. I almost bought one today, but I thought I'd better do some research and before I bit. I know all the technical bascis what do you guys who actually own the quads have to say? Any input would be great. BTW My riding style will be a 60/40 mix of MX and fast trail riding.

you going to but a quad or buy one ? j/k

get the kawi if you want the slowest 450 available

running 60% mx I would lean toward the ltr but its low clearance and wide stance can give it trouble in the woods

want the fastest ? yfz or trx (close)

if price isnt an issue get the ktm

im gonna say 450r just because its the most reliable quad on the market and its great at pretty much every kind of riding

well since i have a kawi i say get one so then well be like a secret club or something (but seriously the kfx has been nothing but good to me), and while i also have an R i cant really say anything bad about my machine, if youre waiting for an 09, why wait for alum. frame and/or efi when you can have it now? jmo
