Handy Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Hear that yo... Overall the suggestions are gonna influence you for about a half hour, then you're going to go back to wondering until you actually just buy one, or ride one that totally blows your expectations out of the water, I was interested in the TRX until I got on an LTR, and I fell in love...now I just need to convince Suzuki on why they need to finance me. Overall whatever ya get; I'm sure you'll be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazlay43 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 ya outta ALL the 450s go with Suzuki. But if its outta the Honda and Yamadog, go with the Honda fer sherr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwinrox Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 GET A BANSHEE!!!!!!!!!!!! Here's your sign. But seriously, I forgot about the LTR. It is a nice bike. +7hp with $35 in mods. Out of the box with wider arms. Awsome throttle response with the EFI. It gets the jump on my TRX from a dead stop but from a rolling start top of first gear I can pull away til 3rd gear when it catches up and pulls ahead. this is stock for stock and same result with either rider on either bike. On the LTR I felt like I was sitting over the tank and the bars were too low for me stock, but a +1 stem felt better. for me its a toss up but what do I know I was riding a 185s as my main duner 'til I got my TRX 2 seasons ago.

Gazlay43 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 gotta admit honda has the best motor, but the LTR has the suspension and EFI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand_YFZ Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) gotta admit honda has the best motor, but the LTR has the suspension and EFI And how did you determine Hondas have the BEST motor.Some of the things you guys say are so rediculous.All the my Honda has never lost to a yfz or my yfz has never lost to this or that.You sound like idiots.Maybe you should get out more often.Every bike has its perks and its downsides.All bikes can be MADE to go fast.The YFZ is a bike that is very easy to get to be fast without any internal mods,maybe the easiest.The TRX can be made to go fast also but most likely will need cams,carb etc etc..The EFI bikes are most likely the future of the sport,but for us old schoolers the carb setup suits us well and we understand it.Every bike has different characteristics and shine in certain areas better than others.It all depends on what you want to do.Im a Yamaha guy and always have been so it will always be an easy choice for me.If you arent partial to certain makes your choice is a little harder to make.Every guy that has a Honda thinks his is fastest,prettiest,best riding,and same with the YFZ and LTR owners.It all is just personal preference.Do your homework and research your bikes before you buy it.The worst thing you can do is rely on some of us to make your choice :smoker: Good Luck with what you buy.All the race style 4 strokes these days are pretty nice and you cant really go wrong with any of them.

cycoguy Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 In reality, I believe they are all the same, what you should be asking is, after you get your bike, what modifications will best suite you're riding style. All the 450's are fast, you'll be happy with any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
