trx 250r vs trx 450r

[fastR of puppets]

the electric stuff is not bad, like with the EFI the throttle response is oh so crisp and if for some reason i need to make a change in the a/f ratio (equivalent to jetting) i can just press a button, or tune it with my laptop instead of pulling off a carb and messing with jets

Im sorry dude, but if you think your ltr will hang with that hybrid, send me some of that weed. Im sorry but traction control is over rated, if you couldnt get power to the ground in that hybrid you'd be an idiot. It'll pull harder from bottom to top with more available torque at probably all rpms

[fastR of puppets]

well either way it doesnt matter, because its not legal to race, but even with the most experienced rider out there you can have too much power at times, more power doesnt necessarily mean fast times, its how its put to the ground, and how it can be controlled, and the LTR will still handle better than that quad which is way more important than power

[ky 2stroker]

handling is just a matter of opinion and rider ability. I cant stand when somebody tries to say that one particular bike is the best handling out of any other bikes.

please explain....

My buddy has owned his 2006 LTR since day 1 and hasn't had one thing go wrong with it. His bike runs flawless. I owned a 04 trx450r for 2 years and it didn't break down once. Same thing with my 06 trx450r, its never had a single thing go wrong.

If you maintain your bike, clean it after ride, use quality oils, and take care of it, it will last for a long time.

just to much shit you got to worry about going wrong if it does i mean its a quad not a car so with aoll this new shit you need a freakin degree just to understand it in my opinion these new 450s are just over rated over priced that are not even the special it takes a lot more skilled rider to ride a 2 stroke then a 4 stroke

..heh powersteering... welp... it's now on utility quads... it's only a matter of time..................................... j/p

[fastR of puppets]

well all that complicated stuff just makes it better, and ill admit at first i was afraid just to touch the motor, but after you look at it for a second its really not taht bad, its VERY rare taht these quads actually "blow up" unlike many 2 strokes, as long as you maintain these they will last very long, sure you may need to do top end rebuilds, but its really not taht bad

there is a guy who owns a 04 yzf450 ( dirtbike ) owned it since 04 and NEVER even adjusted the valve's and it still runs great since the day he got it ( 04 ) never broke on him
