Looking at getting a need quad need some help!

right now I have an 01 660 raptor but it's wrecked due to a dumbass friend... Anyway I'm planing on turning it into my insurance because he cannot afford to pay for it and looking at a new quad.... My question is what should I get?

Honda trx 450?
Yamaha yxf 450?
or another raptor???

I mainly use the quad for riding on a track and on trails .... Im not hardcore at a track I'm just out there for fun.. I will probaly end up riding it more on trails and at a farm then the track but who knows. So let me here some opinions!

Even though I'm a die hard Yamaha fan, if you are going to be doing mostly trail riding, I would go with the Honda...unless you want to buy my Raptor

Seriously though, the Honda has softer suspension and makes the ride a little more comfortable than the yfz.

Question Re: Looking at getting a need quad need some help!

here goes my .. for all its worth...lol
You are gonna miss elec start and reverse if u go wit a 450...
That being said, I wouldn't advise you to get ANOTHER raptor on a bet.. garbage, as far as I'm concerned... I'd rather see ya get a new 400 if ur gonna do a lot of trail, farm, mild track, etc... seems like ur best bet, but hey, what do i know, right?
That new honda 450 is sik... my boy matt has one, and i rode it... tight!.. the yamaha, i don't know first hand, but everyone seems to luv them.. my boy bill has the 450 dirt-bike, and that is sik... i can just imagine how fast the quad is...
So, that being said... i think u should at least consider joining the 400 club... reverse and elec start comes in handy, and unless ur a hardcore track junkie, you prolly wont miss the extra power too much...

hope that helped...lol
