Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: LTR450 994 on October 01, 2007, 12:12:01 PM all black looks good. what have they upgraded on the 08's
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: r6realtor on October 01, 2007, 01:44:54 PM Man great looking bike, I have always been a suzuki fan. Very nice!
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Qdawg76 on October 01, 2007, 08:54:58 PM Sweet ride man, Love the black. Ride any different from the 07's??
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Holeshot36 on October 01, 2007, 09:28:56 PM Very Nice! Make sure to give a review after its broke in and if you notice the "traction control".
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: quads_only on October 01, 2007, 09:30:15 PM dont really know whats diff. from the 06 or 07. Always have been a yamaha guy. Had A yfz for the last 3 yrs and it was bad a$$ but it was time for a change. Ive already ordered the cherry bomb.
dont know what exhaust I want but I think either the yoshi or sparks. what do you guys think. best a-arms? long travel? remember Im going to freestyle this thing. Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Qdawg76 on October 01, 2007, 09:34:09 PM I went with the Yoshi exhaust and Cherry bomb and couldnt believe how much it woke up. I have heard that the DASA exhaust is good, check out www.ltr450hq.com.
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Fox17 on October 02, 2007, 09:25:51 AM id get the yoshi. they seem to specialize in suzuki.
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: qt314nfla on October 02, 2007, 09:35:08 AM Nice addition to the family ya got there. Have fun w/ it.
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: greenmachine on October 03, 2007, 07:53:28 AM How were you able to buy it in the crate? Where from & did you save any money? If you dont mind, how much?
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: quads_only on October 03, 2007, 08:13:46 AM I knew this question was coming. I have a friend that knows the owner of house of power. and the price was under anyone in florida. believe me I called them all trying to get the best price..It also was good they were near my house. you would be amazed at the whacked prices you get and to the good prices you get.
the highest was spaceport suzuki and the lowest was A R S . I would divulge the price but It wouldnt be fair to others that gave me a great price. central florida powersports was the dealer I (was) buying from they wanted 7400.00 out the door taxes and everything. Chris was the nicest guy there. didnt buy there because of a time restraint. Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: CountryBoy on October 03, 2007, 05:45:35 PM all black looks good. what have they upgraded on the 08's I went with the Yoshi exhaust and Cherry bomb and couldnt believe how much it woke up. I have heard that the DASA exhaust is good, check out www.ltr450hq.com. They made 100 changes to the 08's, and makes 3 more horsepower. It looks like they put an anti-vibe steering stem on it to. I have the Dasa exuast and it makes good power in the mid-range. Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Gato on October 03, 2007, 06:27:40 PM Look for a post on breaking in I have never held back on any throttle to break in anything including cars and it rides better in my opinion dont be affraid gun it off the line or dirt for that matter good luck with it it is really nice be safe
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: Seabeejim on October 03, 2007, 10:07:28 PM We sold our second one today and after the set up I took the PDI ride and it is nice. Feels alot better than the 07's. I like some of the changes too.
And believe me Suzuki of Sarasota has good prices if you know who to talk to. Dave...and tell him your are fromATVFLORIDA. Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: mxyfz59 on October 04, 2007, 08:45:18 AM 08 has alot of changes like traction control lol sounds funny saying that about a quad but its suppost to be alot faster. i have a 06 with a rossier if you dont mind the sound this pipe makes awsome power, o and if you get suspension get either walsh fox or jb mgc's and fox, the back will be fine for what your doing, i run the jb fox with a stock back shock.

Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: LTR450 994 on October 04, 2007, 02:01:37 PM I went with the Dasa exhaust and it make great power all around.

Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: 06 BaNsHeE on October 04, 2007, 09:41:59 PM what did you do to assemble it?Isnt it like put on the chain and wheels and adjust handlebars?I wish I got mine in a crate woulda been so much cheaper
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: quads_only on October 04, 2007, 10:09:33 PM charged the battery, rolled the handlebars forward ,and mounted the front brake master, and put on the headlight trim ring. that was it. 8)

Mabe I dont want to Know, But I need to Know the answer to my question. Lie to me and tell me you miss your YFZ.
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: quads_only on October 13, 2007, 05:22:40 PM No I wont lie to you, I do miss my YFZ. But I wanted to change and try something new.I had the long travel and lots of other stuff that this suzuki cant compare to. But like I said wanted something new and different. ;D

how the hell can you stay calm when you're that high in the air? i get scared jumpin a 20ft double lol let alone bein put up 40 feet! kudos to you~ Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: LINK500 on October 24, 2007, 11:34:52 AM That is some big air and is looks like the stock suspension??? I have an '07 LTR and I have not had a chance to change the stock shocks because they are crap. I went to Durhamtown with it and I was hitting bottom all over the place. Is the the "08 suspension that much better? BTW nice work on the bike so far.
Title: Re: my new ltr450 2008 limited edition Post by: quads_only on October 24, 2007, 09:35:05 PM yea, they are still the stockers and no, they arent that great for what Im doing but thier pretty good on the track. Im still feeling it my ankles today! going to get fox evols but havent decided on the arms yet. everyone says walsh but I want max clearance and dont know.
any ideas would be appreciated. :dunno.gif |
