Dude, you need to change to a different group of people. The ones who told you the TRX is junk don't know their ***** from their Elbow. NO, the shocks don't blow out if you dont drop the Quad from the empire state building. No, the engine doesnt blow up if you dont let it revv full throttle in neutral, without oil for half an hour.

You cant go wrong with either YFZ of TRX.

Why the bump? Seatec told you what you need to know.

Anyone that tells you either of these quads is junk or either is significantly better than the other is either lying, ignorant, or plain stupid.

Let personal preference and/or whichever suits you better be your guide.

its just like any new thing that comes out........i wouldn't buy the 450r or the yfz450 just yet. you can bet that they will have problems. i would wait till next year to buy the 450r and the same for the yamaha. you guys that bought one right away are first hand testers for honda and yamaha.............what ever problems they have now will be worked out next year.

and i don't know, luv handa but the yfz450 is a dam nice quad!?!?!?:blah:

That's true in the cases of some companies, however, you have to look at a manufacturer's history - Honda for instance has a long history of doing their R&D before releasing their first model.

Guess how different your 400EX is from a 1999.

Does anyone ever say "Don't buy the 1986 250R" - nope....

Of course, there can always be problems with a 1st year model, but assuming the 1st year will be riddled with problems and basing buying decisions on that alone isn't always the best idea.

That's true, I don't think I expect many problems with the 450R in the first year....but hey, the first year Suzuki came out with quads they did a great job too, lol my 1984 LT185 hasn't had any problems yet except this past summer from when it's been beaten for 20 years:blah:
