    I have a racing quad (08 yamaha yfz450) and it's a lot of fun on the track beating the piss outa it or in the sand pits but other than that it's retty much useless. I'd still like to get a 4x4 b/c my race quad is not built for trails

    3" lift, Nitto grapplers on dicks, remote start. Amsoil synthetics and K&N filters... im a simple man really =)
    yfz450.... hand down... amazing machines. Ive beat the shit outta mine for 6 years and rebuilt for the first time last season. those motors are awesome motors and easily modfiable. Z400 if you want something youll never have to look at twice. Considerably less power and worse hillclimber.

    i had a 400ex and loved it but sold it and went with a new 420 rancher with IRS mostly because i needed something that is more comfortable for riding 2 up, when i got my 400ex i was single and could care less but now that i have a g/f that wants to ride all the time the rancher is a billion times more comfortable for the 2 of us especially on the all day trips we ride

    haha yea i already "lost" that battle once. the stock nerfs (if you can call them that) broke off. i've been meaning to buy new ones, but since a hardly ride anymore, its the last thing on my mind.
