stclark04 Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 (edited) Ok, here's a video of my stock yfz 450 vs a 450r that has a cam, pipe, and has been ported. This was on the street. I have many more videos of my stock 450 and my bro's stock 450 dusting the shit out of a 450r on the dirt. If you would like to see those i would be happy to post those as well. RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE TARGET AS Modded 450r vs. Stock YFZ450 This post is directed to bansheeman1121, 2stroker, Im not telling you that you made a bad decision, cuz I think the 450r is a good quad. Just letting banshee man see a vid. Edited October 26, 2004 by stclark04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroker Posted October 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 I've ridden the YFZ450 which is why it was my first choice. But, the $1500 difference in price is what swung me. I guess I'm justy a cheap bastard. The YFZ is definitely quicker. But it is also geared lower. The 450r has a really tall first gear. First mod is gonna be a 13t front sprocket. Second mod will be to put a Yamaha sticker on it . The forward kick of the kickstarter really blows. Feels like I'm gonna sprain my ankle each time I start it. Despite it's shortcomings, I satisfied overall. Besides, I still have my Shee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamuel Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 I watched a piped 400ex tossed a new stock 450r. ALl day long the piped 400ex wipped the sh*** out of the 450r. THey are turds. First thing i would do is get the hrc kit. THat cam makes a difference............. makes it so they can atlest keep up. Every builder round here will tell you the exact same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sredish Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 I like the YFZ when I rode one, although, there was considerably more vibration and I didn't like that. Is the 450r the same way, or is there less engine vibration? I actually have gotten to like the looks of the 450r more. I'm not as concerned with straight away speed in XC and would like a low grunting thumper that is comfortable in and out of the woods.
