hey. i have a 2005 honda 450r with hrc kit and a few extras. i found someone that wants to trade my 450r for his 2005 yamaha 660r. the raptor has full hmf, +2 axle, beadlocks, and holeshots. i was wondering if i should make the trade. both of our quads are in about the same condition. i ride mostly trails and some laps around the track. what do you guys think?

im tryn to get rid of my 400ex right now for a 450 and i think the honda 450 is the best out there. love the look realy long lasting a reliable i ride mostly wood trails and some fields. i wish i had the money for the 450. the 660 is realy snappy but i think the 450 is better but i would meet up with him and ride his and c what you like a new quad is always fun.

your choice, i personally love my raptor since it has reverse, tons of torque, and its just fun. but... availability of high end parts such as long travel suspension components etc are much more abundent for the 450s. it all comes down to personal preferance, really all of the quads coming from the major manufacturers are quite good

i took the raptor for a ride and didnt like it as much as my 450r. it was too tall for my kind of riding. it was a sweet quad but just not my style
