Post by: johnny c on December 04, 2006, 09:30:38 AM
looking to buy my first atv
but not to sure which to  buy
i m looking between
honda  trx 400 or 450  vs yamaha 450 yzf or 660 raptor
im open to any  but like the idea of reverse option
im used to dirt bikes (xr 650/kx 125)but would like a atv  for a change.
will use it for recreation  not racing yet
anything i should know about either?

If your not looking into racing just yet then the best option would be a 400 class machine like the Z400. They are a better suit for the trails and recreation and there are hundreds of aftermarket compaines so when your ready to race then your limits are just your pocket book.

I second that. LTZ400 or a TRX400 make great trail bikes out of the box. If you must have bigger, the Raptor 700 is a good trail machaine (more power, less handling).
