    No kidding! I know which one I like best.(The one with 3-wheels) But which one do you like best? I do have to say that I like the black 450R more than any other 450R's!
    It ain't about the money, or even being #1, you gotta know when it's all over you did the best you could of done! And knowing that it's in you and you never let it out, is worse then blowin' any engine or any wreck you'll ever have!

    Well we lined em up and in a drag race, the 450r got it off the line but by the end the 250r was in front by atleast 1 bike length. That was in a 300 yard race or so. The white 250r isn't even my fastest 250r. My 85 will beat the 86 but it is down with head gasket problems right now. I like the 450r a little better, but I think that is because it is new. I ride the new Rancher the most since the fields are planted and I am kind of restricted to the woods right now around the house. I still love my 3 wheelers, but ride them a little less since the new quads arrived.

    What is all done to that 250R??
    I have a 250R and 450R as well.
    You HAVE to get the HRC kit and put a full exhaust system on that 450, HUGE difference. The 250 won't stand a chance after that. I can tell from the pics you don't have either one. You won't even know it's the same bike.

    The white one has a good port job and decent exhaust (FMF). I raced my stock 450R with one that had 36 tooth rear sprocket, no airbox lid, larger jets and FMF Power Bomb (?) exhaust, and he tore me a new one in a drag and on flattrack race. He races pro class locally. He said that the HRC cam wasn't making much of a difference when racing, now I know that is his opinion. Does it really help the 450r that much, or is it more the exhaust that helps? Even if I did those mods it will not stand a chance against my 85 with the 310 Big bore and PT exhaust. That one is snappier and way more wicked than the white 86 R is. Here is the only couple of pics I have of the 85.
