I personally would get the 05TLD. Mostly with reverse and the new shocks. But that is me.

I also would go for the 05 TLD. The 04 is good but the 05 is better.

That's kind of what i'm leaning towards.
What are some fairly cheap mods? How well do they wake up to a pipe/filter?.I see people are putting on 450r carbs.
Will they put out over 40hp with pipe/filter?

Thanks

My brothers 04 Pred with just the Pure Polaris pipe and a cfm airbox with the lid on dyno'ed just below 40rwhp. With the lid off and more jetting he would most likely get around 42rwhp. The same place he had it dyno'ed had stock YFZ'z dynoing at 34rwhp. A stock z-400 came in at 27rwhp.

The only down side to the 05's that I've seen is they don't have an aftermarket CDI out yet!

Ice, $5700 is a great deal. I just paid $6200. cya

go for the 04 your savin a lot of money which can be put into mods, reverse on a sport bike, if u cant get ur lazy *** off to turn it around then u shouldnt be riding it thats my opinion....ive heard bad reports of the TLD's new tranny with the closer ratios because there is a large gap between 4th and 5th.....i personaly have not gotten one opened up yet because theres been too much snow but soon i will be able too

my opinion is go for the 04 you can add rezzies to it and you dont really need reverse so take the grand your saving and pick up some better mods
