lol honda, yamaha it is, don't need issues from either one of those, just found a new 08 YFZ for $4500, leftover, hopefully some of these deals are still around when I return.

I read that can am doesn't have the best track record. I just really like all that it comes with,

I was browsing a local dealers site and found 08 ds 450x's on sale for $4200, what do we think about that?? and compared to a polaris outlaw 450 for $4000. I like what the ds comes with saves a few bucks

somewhere around 3-5 weeks from now, I can't really say exactly when, were not suppose to broadcast that info, but I can't wait also going to get my twin boys a little 50cc either suzuki or polaris they seem to be the way to go on the small ones. I may wait till xmas, not to spoil them to much and make it there presents.

Thanks, for the info I will have to look up steering stabilizers heard of them for sport bikes and wheelers but never really looked into them. I am hoping to find a TRX or YFZ most likly TRX as they seem to have the best price and there is more of them, but I am hoping to find one that may already have some basics done such as tires, new exhaust, nerf's stuff like that. I have been browsing while over here in Afghan just to get an idea and have come across quit a few with those items, then I can focus more on suspension and other items. Again thanks for the info!
-
right on I will have to look into that, thanks
-
good to know, sounds like the way to go, got the name of any good companies for that one that you can send me? also how much of a fraction just curious on the difference??
-
Right on, suspenison can get expensive, everything I read says its damn stiff. The tires are one of the first things in my opinion, gotta havem.
-
Hmmm after just browsing craigslist some more 04-06 TRX's and YFZ's $3000-3500 can't beat that tons of TRX's in that range.....so just add suspension, would be good to go then right?? aside from other typical mods that you do to anything... atleast thats what I have been reading only downfall is suspension
-
True a place by me has 08's new for $3999, but there kinda fugly lol the front of those things are just weird. wish the ktm's had been out longer so I could find a nice used one to much for new, well to much for new anything in my opinion, I looked into the polaris when I saw huevos 11 and noticed they were all riding them thought there may be something to them I didn't know, but ehh not for me.

good stuff, I think I have decided on the YFZ... after looking at some aftermarket items such as suspension, which I hear the TRX could use for a setup such as racing be it xc or mx. The YFZ seems to be right in the middle for race ready, or raceable I should say, the LTR being more ready but very wide for XC or trail use. The TRX being great for race after a handful of mods, I have a bit of a budget so the YFZ seems best suitable I guess, although I really like all 3. Wish the TRX had a better suspension, maybe I can find a used one thats somewhat hooked up already lol kinda likely since I will be searching the craigsling lol.

so the only 450 I should avoid is the 04-05 yfz's, and electric start is good but not a deciding factor either probably just try for 06 and up across the board see what happens craigslist is looking quit promising in the tampa area lol

Hey guys, I have a quick question I tried searching a bit for the answer but being downrange I run out of time for browsing. I am looking into getting a used 450 be it TRX, YFZ or a LTR, more torwards the TRX or YFZ due to price and width. Mostly recreational riding, wanting to get into xc and maybe mx but that is not my deciding factor you can mod and set up anything to work for what you want, My question is from the start of the 450's what years are the most reliable meaning which ones and years had the biggest issues.... I know performance is more to maintain. I heard YFZ had the 04-05's with crank or oil issues to get 06 and up but what about the TRX or LTR any years with issues to avoid??? Thanks

Hello everyone, I browsed by and this seems like a great site. I am getting back into riding took some years off not really sure why! This time around I am looking into mx and xc, and trying to decide what 450 is for me but thats another post I suppose.
