is the R rite for me?

[jamaha]

Hi guys I've been on a yfz450 for the past few years but I'm looking to add a 2smoke to the garage. My first sport quad was a shee but I really like the R. I'm 6'2" 210 am I too big for the R? I don't like how the shee handles or jumps and I don't need a quad built to 100hp to race on the street . So is the R for me? Thanks guys.

go for it bud, im 6'3 buck 190 and it just right for me. its got plenty of power for u

Ok cool thanks. So with that said is this a good deal: 89 with hot rods crank, pro X piston stock bore, lone star a arms and axle, works shocks, air stryker carb, beadlocks , and curtis sparks pipe. For 2k . Sound like a good deal ?

yes go buy it 89s are hardest to find

if your not sure go test ride a few. then you will realize what youve been missing all these years.. you might just want to sell the yfz, because it wont get used much.. ha
yeah that sounds like a pretty fair deal, any pics? take your time theres a lot of good deals out there right now, you shouldnt have to much trouble finding one. but ya check on that 89 for sure sounds nice.. goodluck man!!!

You'll have no problems, I'm 6'1 and 270 lbs and it fits me just right.;)

I'm actually bigger than Andre the Giant and I ride a 250R so I think that a 250R will work good for you. You should buy it!

I'm 6'2" around 205. One thing you might do right off the bat is convert it to pro-pegs and get a +2 steering stem. I always have problems getting up off the seat on longer rides because the R sits me so low.

Make sure it is actually and '89. I've noticed a number of instances where people said it was an '89 and it turned out to be an '86 or '87. True '89s aren't very common. For 2K it's not bad either way, but at least you'll know what you have.
