ATV Florida Forum

There's alot of chatter between these two sport quads as most of you know.  Which one of these bikes is the best.  I personally like the LT-R 450 but some say the YFZ is much better.  Which is the Best Track quad?

well its hard to know considering the suzuki isnt out yet. ;)

Your posts simply amaze me kid.

YAH IM NO ME3 WWEE22222 ::)






You do? How many times have you ridden it ? :-X

No he has not rode it, he just likes the picture of it. The picture of the LT-R450 looks 2MPH faster than the YFZ's picture does.

I was going to wait for the LT-R 450 but it won't fit in my truck.(2 wide)  So I bought the Raptor.  "honda250ex" put a deposit on a LT-R so once he gets it i'll take it out for a test drive.

I need to call (http://www.ida-mann.com/Emoticons_files/bsflag.gif) on that,,,,my quad is 49 or 50" wide and it fits in the back of my truck without problem,,,,now saying that,,,my truck has the same bed as a "Lightning", so you are either giving us a line of bull squeeze on the truck, or the research you did on the quad.

Id@

I personally think that the electric start option on the 2006 TRX450R gives it at least a 4mph advantage over the other two quads in question. :N


P.S. did you hear that it has electric start ! :o

My Raptor baerly fits in my truck.  I have about 1-2in of clearance on each side.  It may fit if you ram it in their.

dude, go out and measure a Lightning truck bed, you will find that it is almost exactly 50" wide at the tailgate, and the bed on a "L" is the standard Flareside bed for an F-150 which is what I have sitting in my driveway.

do some research before you type something for the whole world to see.

and does the LT have electric start? >:D

Id@

What you talkin about! ??? I did not put a deposit! Was thinking about it but not in a rush!

Me too! How old is this guy? He actually has a vehicle to drive? A Lightning at that :-\ . That's scary ???.

just let you know he is 14!! Me and him can both drive! ;D

hey honda i seen you out at sunshine and you are twelve. you probabbly cant even reach the pedals. this is why im thinking why you are getting a 450 you should be getting a 400. that 250ex you where riding that one night looked to fit you perfectilly :-\

Yes it does have Electric start, And a optional kick start.

So does the YFZ....

Never measured mine, ill be back in a couple to let you know whats up since I ACTUALLY DRIVE MINE AS A DAILY DRIVER. Man, I hate posers.

Ok, 49inches from where the tailgate closes, 53inches at the widest part before the wheel wells, and 50 inches from the wheel wells.

Last time I checked the YFZ450 and 700r had the same front end.. Which would be i think either 44 or 46inches. Mine clears all the time and when fully inside the bed, it has about 8 inches of moving room from a 360degree of the quad.

i fit my yfz (at 51 inches) in the back of my dads colorado when i dont bring the trailer and it fits fine. i think the colorado is smaller than the lightning.

Sence when dose it have electric start?
 4mph?
Dont you meen it will be slower because the electric start would have to have a battery and the starter should make it weigh more not including the heavy wires that it needs for the push button and the starter cylaroid that ingages the starter and the bolts that hold all that stuff in and the water in the battery that must weight somthing also.  I think it would at least slow it down 5mph

 I was just wondering how many kicks does it take to start the quad!! 4,5,6

with out engine work it should start in 1 or 2 kicks with engine work done it may take alittle more.

I remeber I had a '04 blaster and it took at least 5 kicks to start it.

Lets see...... you had that quad for 2 days and it was a 2-stroke soo thats totally different! :-\

yea

yea

put some muscle into it.

I had a LT230 that would crank on the first or second kick all the time,,,,cold it would take two kicks, warm,,,,one kick.

it all depends on how well maintained the engine is, and what mods if any.

Id@

I was florring it the first day and burned the clutch and some other stuff messed up.  Then I sold it and got a warrior

you burnt out the clutch of an almost new bike in one day.........................

Yep.... he first was racing me and it was pretty slow!!

Dude..A Blaster would kill a 250ex. He really must not know how to ride at all.

WELL.... i AM A GOD DRIVER

Last time I checked I wasnt going to church for you

GOOD*

you may be a gOd driver but youre not a good speller,and just to stay on topic,
i love the suzuki z400 over the yamaha yfz's, but if it came down to choosing either an 06 yfz or the new lt-r, id go with the yfz just because its been out longer so yamaha was able to work out most of the bugs, also i dont like how the exhuast comes right out the middle of the lt-r, i mean what do you think will happen if you bottom out your rear shock. :N

Well I was taking it easy that day anyways.  remember the Blaster can Blow your 250ex anyday like Dr. Dirt said.  You'll find out when the top end kicks in those blasters then you'll be thinking my 250EX is really slow.

Like wow!... I dont care :o and I think the Suzuki mecanics! thought about that already!

ok smarty pants, you tell me what happens when the rear shocks bottom out and the muffler is .5 inches form slamming the axle.............

Even if you were good... Your bike doesnt require much ability other than to shift up and press the throttle..If so, I am the best automatic driver here. Anyone want to argue that? How about anyone want to share the title?

I can drive an automatic better than you. It took me 19 days to get as good as I am at holding the brake and shifing into Overdrive on my car. It takes skills.

No Problemo

waiting........................................

I think what he is saying is that you might get violated by a muffler if you bottom out.

Bacicly your Muffler is pancake.

Yea what ever ::) If it bottum's out well.......Im not paying for it! ;D my paps is! You get me know!... GOOD

Good, that your dad will contribute to your likely medical hazard.  Good going dad!!

Oh yea!! there will be a long list

250 and 700, I think you guys should not post anymore.  ???

I am slowing down on posts... plus its not like I have'nt herd it. ::) ::)

Ohhh, he told you!  :N
