bansheeryder_69 Posted May 5, 2005 Report Posted May 5, 2005 it will be close but like someone said (don't remember who) its 5% bike and 95% rider hopefully you walk all over him dude Quote
locogato11283 Posted May 5, 2005 Report Posted May 5, 2005 if you race him on dirt prepare to get beat if hes a good rider. race him on concrete and youll have a better chance. Quote
white trash Posted May 5, 2005 Report Posted May 5, 2005 I dunno man, like Loco said, if he's a good rider he will probably take ya. I was chasing them things down most of last season. Dont let the "cocky 4 strokers" fool you, them 450's are fast Quote

ellison445 Posted May 5, 2005 Report Posted May 5, 2005 Sorry to be the one to burst your bubble, FMF and filters are not going to cut it. You might get stomped, your going to need a port job or some more bolt ons to beat him, unless he rides like shit! Im a die hard banshee fan and rider for life, but you have to respect that 450!!! -eric gorr 364904[/snapback] Quote

I'm speaking from first hand experience too...I used to think the same thing until my friend piped and filtered his 450 and spanked me. The guy is a better rider than I am but even if I were equally skilled, he would have still beaten me. Those 450's aren't to be taken lightly Quote
loganskinner Posted May 6, 2005 Report Posted May 6, 2005 (edited) yep. got my ass handed to me by a 450. we were both equally good riders, and i got an awesome start and thought i had it til he started pulling away... they're quick. dont believe every bad thing you hear about the YFZ450.

Donoyfz450 Posted May 6, 2005 Report Posted May 6, 2005 Honestly,,I love the speed of my YFZ,ad definitely the handling,,,But I HATE the noise!! loud pipes are cool on two strokes but are annoying after a while on 4strkers. oh and the reverese sucks too!! Quote
