go with the trx450.. it's got a VERY strong engine with lots of room for upgrades.

How did you crack your frame?

he didnt but the z400s have weak frames, they bend and crack really easy.

I would go for either the Yamaha YFZ450 or the Honda TRX450R. The Yamaha will most likely will have a little more power. But the Honda will be more reliable. The Yamaha has tranny problems already. The gas tank is a little bigger, which is great for some riders. 2.6gal Yamaha vs. 3.2gal Honda.

I personally would go with the HONDA.

well said....


except that im sure honda is gonna have some minor probs at first too, espcially (sp) sence it seems they just threw this quad together... and on the gas note... my yfz sucks tons of gas, so a bigger tank would be nice!

how do you even know they dont even have any test's on the quad, barely anyone has ridden it. the honda will be close to as good if not on par, you can put 2,000 into a 400ex and make it keep up with the yzf on the track just fine.
