Ok I'm getting into mx and wanted everyones honest opinion on which machine is better and worse. I have only had honda but I like the idea of a mx ready quad.

The LTR will cost less money to have it be competitive. Get the quad and the cherry bomb and you will be set. The TRX will need wider A-arms an axle to be able to take the corners as fast.

:D I'm not talking safety features, i'm talking lap times. You put the same rider on the 2 machines and he will turn faster times on the LTR

Bottom line honda needs alot! a-arms,shocks,tierods,swing-arm,nerfs,tires,axle national kit.you would spend alot more ,all you need with the suzuki is nerfs,kill switch track ready but you wont to be competive so pipe,airfilter,cherry,national kit if you can afford.the suzuki has a better racequad than honda imo.Ktms are looking sweet too!those are my two favorates.You already have 450r fully modded/ktm-sx,why buy another?or they sold.

they are when they are modded, but not stock. yami and ltr are the battle.

Not proven them selfs so far(ktm/can-am)on the track IMO. two just wondering the guy that started tread says he has ktm/modded 450r why would you get another before trying the ktm/450r for mx racing?

the battle with yami and ltr as far as stock. the new 450r by yami is fuel injected and sits wide like the ltr. also the price range is close. can am i dont think is close on the track as far as stock. ktm is for sure a mx quad out of the gate.
