    Is this YFZ450 worth it?

    I have a chance to grab a 05 YFZ450 for around 4300.00. It has around 40/50 hours on it in the 8 months since it left the dealer. Basically a stock machine with slip on and jet kit.

    What do you think as I need to move on it quick like?!

    I can't believe you said that. What proof do you have that a tri z is faster then a yfz? Can you put some videos on 3ww that show a tri z out running a yfz? Can you post a picture that shows a tri z out running a yfz? Have you ever ridden a tri z? Have you ever ridden a yfz? Do you have a fast trike? Will it out run a yfz? If so, can you post a picture or video? If the tri z does out run the yfz do they have equal mods?

    If you can't provide at least proof to 3 of the items I stated I think you spoke out of turn and let your fingers over load the true facts.


    If that is to hard of a task. Please answer these. Are you a postwhore? Do you enjoy ruining other peoples threads? Will you ever quit ruining other peoples threads?

    Yeah but having a tri-z would be a lot cooler! I'd take one over a YFZ. But thats just because I'm .

    Have you raced one with your tri-z? Because i have. They are crazy fast but it didn't BEAT THE UNLIVING BEJESUS SNOT OUT OF Me. It was very close but he didn't win. We both have many mods to. I would say buy he yfz, they are a sweet machine and fast, that is a good price too.

    HAHAHA wow you are a *******!!!!!!! I like how your putting words in my mouth I never said!!!! When in that post did I say "A tri-Z is faster than a YFZ", Huh? So perhaps you should read before you type..........
    I said he should buy a Tri-Z because it's a 3-wheeler, morons..........and lets face it, 3=wheelers are better, we better all be able to agree on that even the 8 year old (post whore'en...................I find it funny how he thinks I'm imature, because I'm the one who can't say something to somebodies face, oh no, I think I handle it like a mature adult and make fun of their screen name!!!!

    Buy the YFZ, you already have a fast trike. The YFZ will be faster then most 250 trikes in all other aspects besides drag racing.

    I'm going to be MX racing next season on my trike and I know I'm going to have my butt handed to me by most of the riders there on everything from Predators to Z400's and the 450's. Its all about being there and having fun IMO.

    The yfz 450 is the fastest production quad made. It has the best power to weight ratio of all quads out there today. It even takes all the old 250r and anything 2 stroke basically and 4 stroke. So no a shee wont beat a 450 it wont even beat a raptor its close but it wont.
