just wanted to show some of my work. the 450ER is a customers bike that i built last winter for him. the 400EX is my bike. i added handles to the seat for seat grabs. i lost the pictures of the 350X i restored for someone. i will have to have him send me some pictures.

there is very little stock on mine. it will smoke many modified 450s and not need to be rebuilt near as often.

ya know...i have heard these new generation, high strung thumpers need a rebuild almost as often as their old 2-stroke counterparts....il take my pinger...the parts to rebuild are ALOT cheaper..

I've been toying with the idea of getting a 400ex or 450r....

i think i would rather have a 3 wheeler. i would have never got a 4 wheeler if they were racing 3 wheelers back in 1999. i have to much money in mine to sell it so i will just have to keep it. i could build a TPC 450 for about half of what i have in this 4 wheeler.

I was gonna get a TPC 450r, so close in fact I had the motor and frame from a 450r about to be shipped to me then Bill...I spend about 2 weeks planning everything out and talking in depth with Bill about everything. I then had to put everything on hold for personal reasons which sucks. I'd just like to have something newer to beat on so my 350x doesn't take the full beating. I either want a 450r or a ATC 250r for MX stuff. What do you think Jensen? I've never ridden a quad on an MX track but it seems like it could be fun.

it is hard to say. i do know that without a doubt, i would have went with the TPC over the 4 wheeler when i decided to make a change but it was not around then. i wanted to race MX but also did not want to go to 4 wheelers. more than anything i needed a change because i was destroying my bike almost every ride and there was just nothing out there to improve my 3 wheeler. i was out riding the bike and it was hurting me as well as holding me back. i wanted to go to the 250R and even got one for a short time. i just could not get use to the 2 stroke. i am a 4 stroke man. the 250R would have held up a little better but i would have trashed it also in the end. i guess i just can't really answer your question but for me it would be the TPC all the way. if you could just test ride it on a couple jumps that you take your 350 off of i bet you would think the same thing. I'm not going to tell you i never had any fun on my 4 wheeler but i would have had more fun on a 3 wheeler that could hold up to what i was doing. i won two championships with my 4 wheeler but had more fun last Saturday in the OTC race. i am not just trying to be a salesman, i said the same thing to Josh's dad Saturday night and i am sure he knew i was telling the truth.

Yea I am sure, but alas the TPC450r costs 2-3 times as much as a used 450r does....I really really want to get one built but I don't have 6-9k at the moment...There are '04 and '05 450r's for sale here for $2-3,000. I haven't ridden a quad in many years, I grew up riding both 3 and 4 wheelers and I still ride 3-wheelers to this day....But like you I don't like thrashing my 350x cause I feel like I am breaking it more and more every time I take it to the MX track. And I've never owned a 2-stroke so I am also very much a 4-stroke guy so that's why I don't have a 250r...

you could go with the 06 450R and when you had the extra money get it converted if you wanted ;):D

hey red ride 250r, your right about the trikes statement there, the 250r's can still beat a 450 quad. i know of someone on a quad/trike forum here in OZ and he dragged off a bloke on a trx450r on his 85/86 250r. he said 'he won, just'
