I think they're both very good quads and at the end of the day it's going to come down to which one do you feel most comfortable spending your money on. I don't think either of them is going to be light years ahead of the other in terms of performance.

im just sayin all these people that are out there sayin teh yamaha is better and everything on it is better than the honda and guess what the honda isnt even out yet so why would people say stuff like that and im not bashing the yamaha either i think there both great quads but i like the honda more cause i know it will last and the price is cheaper

I think he was talking about Honda as a whole......like the whole company.....which most, maybe all of their products are built to last...and I dont think anybody could expect any less from them.

I call that a popular myth that the 15 year olds started......

Ive had better luck with my YAMAHAS than my HONDAS maybe its just me but everything breaks and if youve never broke everything on a Honda good for you, but that doesnt make them stronger than any other brand.

Besides, what makes you think the 450r is going to be like other hondas "its not even out yet".......

think about this , the yfz is a detuned version of the dirt bike motor. the r is not. it has the hp advantage. look for the honda to smoke the competition. the r should be ballpark 50 hp , the yfz is what 35 , 36 ? do the math!

The Honda is also detuned, it just has more displacement than the Yamaha. Nobody can really say for sure what these bikes will compare against each other because one, the honda isn't even out yet. I've heard mixed things, the yamaha has 5 titanium valves, compared to hondas 4 valves, 2 stainless and 2 caste iron. The Honda has a 41mm carb, the yamaha has a 39. We really can't say for sure, stop making assumptions.

Haha, i think the TRX is actualy detuned more than the YFZ. Not for sure on that, but i do know it is detuned. Even if your comparing the outside of the motor to the CRF motor you can tell they look really diferent.

Hiper i wasnt saying you were 15, its just my whole life ive heard how reliable Hondas are and im getting sick of it, Hondas dont last a minute longer than anything else in my garage. I just hate hearing people give them credit for something they dont deserve. Mostly its the guys that just go out and trail ride a little every now and then, nothing wrong with that, but anything can stand up to that kind of riding.

I dont dislike Honda if i had the cash i would go buy a 450R and then i could compare to my YZ firsthand and not have to go by what other people think. Everyone knows it will be a good bike and i dont care if someone on here gos out and buys one over the YFZ. If someone REALLY thinks the YAMAHA is better than the Honda shouldnt they be telling the competition to go buy a Honda?!

I dont care if your on a YFZ450 or a TRX450, ill still go ride with you.....
