dude i know your new but this is so annoying do a search. this topic is posted like five to ten times a week it gets really old. id go with the yfz. jud my personal preferance and its not bored out so motor is prolly a lil more reliable. but please do a search next time before u post.

gee thanks i didnt realize there were people out there looking at buying 1 of 2 quads with the exact same mods.
why do you say big bores are unreliable?
do they wear quicker? or just break for no good reason?
thanks

1) yes theyre are tons of ppl that post all the time that are choosing between these two quads. they dont have to be the exact same mods. the fact is there both modded. you can read other post and get the gist of any info you need.

2)im jus saying in general what do you think is more reliable? a stock unbored motor, or a bored out motor? no they dont break for no good reason but its just a realiability issue when you bore out any motor

3) to post a pic, copy the url from your picture. go to post a reply, and right above where you type to post your reply, there is a little button that says "IMG". click on that and put your link in there. then press ok and it will come up.

I would take the YFZ over the 450r. Not just because I own one :D but the YFZ looks so much better..
