Exactly, put a set of shocks on a shee and see what happens even lik somon else on here did they put the new yfz front shocks on their banshee and said there was a bi diff, i bet u woul prolly be able to man handl that new 450 easily. All the new 450 has on the shee i maybe weight, definantly torqe and emissions.LOL
and who r u guys to say the honda sucks,None of u have riddin it and raced the yfz or the shee to even see how it holds up,we dont even have vidz of the test rides. Im sure the new honda will be some comp from both our classic banshee and our new breed 4 stroke yfz450. Not sayin i hate yamaha or anything it's just that ppl r talking about what they dont even know about yet, Look at the 250r, a great bike im sure the 450r has to b just as good maybe even better the only downside is that it's a thumper.
But i have no probz with thumper'z and their riderz cuz i own one too it's just when they talk shit about 2 strokes an they dont even know shit about them.
but i kinda understan since this is a yamaha+2 stroke+banshee=B.S. on any other brand
