I hear they're out!!!!

[Ride1Rob]

word on the street is that the all new LT-R450 has finally hit stores on the west coast. Guys have reported of already having them in their garages. But for a pretty hefty price tag   . Guys are saying dealers in Cali want over $8500 for these bikes b/c of the high demand for them and that the price probably won't fall til a few months from now.

[kfx400rob]

8500 is a little steep

Yeah, it's kinda like supply and demand    . If the bike is in high demand and peeps are going to pay those prices for it....  most dealers are going to charge wayyy over the MSRP. There was a guy in the San Diego area that quoted a dealer price of $8900 OTD   . Must admit myself though... I LIKEY!!!

[dreth]

8500$ and no nerfs???   i think i was taken advantage of

[Sweet Z]

That is one sweet bike.

[LakeMaryKid]

I dont know why everyone likes this centered exhaust......yeah it looks good maybe, but how does it look after a guy hits you in the ass? Sorry but i wouldnt want to spend 8500 then 500 every race for a new exhaust cause someone bumped me. Only bad design flaw i can see as of now though.

[gery350]

i think that is the nicest bike i've ever seen.
picking mine up in 2 weeks.(yeah right)

why couldnt i been born rich instead of good looking.

Hmmm... for someone to hit you hard enough to destroy the pipe I'm thinking you'll have ahella lot more concerns than that quad. That would be a nasty impact considering how they'd have get past those tires and rear bumper

Also, maybe it's just me... but it looks like someone has been riding that baby   Check out the asphalt stains in between the rear knobbies

[Honda250ex]

ITS a SWEET quad but I guess there is always next year Need to get bugs out first than it will get in my garage. Doug Gust said it is the best production quad out and it can blow a honda and a yamaha

[Dr.Dirt]

I see people getting burned alot more with this new center exhaust for some reason. I mean, its right next to the damn grab-bar.

Do you think that Doug would say anything other than that. I think he would be in trouble if he said it was ok BUT he really liked the honda better.

Not quite, that exhaust does not look too recessed. All it takes is the tires to be staggered and it is toast. I see lots of broken number plates and always hear about the bumping and what not. Trust me you will see it happen more than once.

[Ride1Rob]

I really can't see it... There's nothing on the front of an ATV that sits that high to reach the tail light. If that were the case tail lights would be busted out on all sorts of ATV's. My pipe and quite a few others stick out farther than that on the sides of the Yamis, Hondas, and Kawis and you don't see it happen much then.

Look at the stock YFZ pipe...

Not saying it doesn't happen b/c it happened to me last year at SandMountain. But the guy had to hit me from the side and his tire then rolled on top of mine lifting his front end. His front bumper in turn hit my canister. So actually I think it's more protected in the center.

[RAD 450r]

That thing is sweet i wanna see how it matches up to the yamaha and honda 450's its gonna be a good year in the atv world. That thing is sick

I dont know if a familar member can flip a new raptor 700 twice in the short time he has owned it I am sure the the crashing thing is not above his ability. of course I am not calling anyone out just making an observation LOL

[SkyHighT100]

""Humping the side of her chair"".... I know someone who will be going on a roadtrip soon to pick up one of those bad boys..... yummy

[LT-R450ApK]

hmmm wonder who that can be?

[2006YFZ450]

it may be the Best production quad out but that pipe looks like @ss...

My YFZ will take that any day........................


Oh....yea wouldn't that pipe hit the swingarm if you bottomed out?  If not a aftermarket pipe will...

[wheelie_boy]

[lawn_man mx]

[SkyHighT100]
