so that makes them geniuses? same dudes who told you to get a 450r? and now youre right back on a banshee forum complaining about how your genius friends told you to get a slow ass 450r. yea, makes sense.
for what you ride? everything i have seen a 450r do, a yfz450 can do better. you might be able to make that 450r fast, but its gonna take thousands, a lot of time and the reliability is going straight out the window.
i dont know how many times ive heard people talking about their slow ass 450r, yet i hear stories all the time about basically stock yfz450's running right along 4mm banshee motors.
