A year or two ago the yz450 had an outta control feel it felt like it had too much power going to the ground and it would destroy the crf in short drags and its suspension was 2x better but as i say honda has made some improvements on its 4-strokes in the past year and a half.. admit it hondas 250 and 450 in its first year sucked and even yamahas 250f sucked its first year the 426 and 450s werent too bad tho. If i was gonna get any 4-stroke it would be a 426f.
