I haven't rode the honda on the tracks but the yfz's I've rode have been great.  Could be the shocks on them but hitting table tops was smooth and easy and the yfz's I've been on just over all feel better.  Only thing I haven't liked is the angle of the thumb throttle but that can be changed.  Granted I'm no expert on sport quads this is a beginner MX riders opinion.

sit on them and see what one feels better. both have problems and both are fast. if you have access to ride both of them ride them and see which one feels right. the honda is better for bigger people i think. just my preference though. and i only ride honda. little bias here  Roll Eyes

Dude Lt-r for the track all the way. For more of an all-around quad I'd say the yfz.

There's nothing "magical" about going slow and breaking down all the time....

You probably did. I'm the extremely good lookin' guy with the black Predator. Actually, I'm the only guy with a Predator out there....
Not for long though. My Predator is fixin' to go bye-bye.

The quality of the Honda blows them all away.  I have built a YFZ, a TRX and an LTR.  The Honda is BY FAR the best built one out there.  In fact right now I have an brand new 07 YFZ that I built for XC.  It is done and ready to go.  If anyone wants to trade me for a Honda, let me know. .
