too little too late....only really an option for current Pred. owners.

anone in the market will either get a YZ450f or the new trx450....and pay less

with the 510 pounds with the 440cc kitthen it would lug around. i didn't read any of that article but i think they need to make a new chassis with lighther components for a 440

I had no idea the weight jumped to that much......hm well maybe Ill stil with the Vortex instead then,God knows it dont need no more weight..One thing I like about it the way it is is really even at current weight you really cant feel the weight,but at 510/////forget it.......:(

theysaid that in alittle box when they did lap times vs, thew yfz,400ex,Z400,and predator. i may be wrong but unless it puts out the same power if not more than the 500cc kkit then get it because its AMA legal and i could have more power?:confused:
