I would never buy a suzuki quad, ever. I think Its going to look really good but im sure the fuel injection will suck. Im going trade my 400ex in for the 450R here real soon. Ride RED

not me. sat night i was on the back of one all hammered up (like an asshole, yes i admit it) and within 10 minutes had it flipped over on top of us. luckily i was smart enough to bail before the whole thing landed, so just the handle bars landed on my leg. few lumps and bruises on my head and legs, but i guess it could have been much worse. so yeah…lol

when i started racing bikes, i have only ever owned suzukis. and i will never change. always had good luck with them. the bikes and quads are so similar now, you just pretty much pick a color you like, cause they will all perform as good as the other.

At a beginer level this is true but when you are at the expert level you can really tell the difference between bikes. For example checkout [racerxill.com](http://racerxill.com) and go to the 250F shootout (recent story).  
I used to be a full time MXer but college has only given me the time to be a part time racer. But I still love it. My brother races professionally. He qualified for the high point national and finished 17th in the 250 class with carmichael, windham, and stewart. There are a ton of places to ride you just got to know where to go.  
We race for:  
[Cernics.com](http://Cernics.com)  
PR2 Racing Engines and Suspensions  
Torco Lubricants  
One Industries  
Spy Optics  
Six Six One  
Renthal  
and many more

Nice…

I’m a four-stroke guy… if my CR500R deal doesnt work out within the next year or so :fingerscrossed:, my next bike will be a 450 - either Yamaha or Honda… i prefer yamaha, but i’d take either - but could be a while… new car will come before a bike

id say knock about 1000 off. just as an estimate and from experience of dealing w/ dealers on new bikes i’d say thats about where you’l be at. my YZs sticker price was like close to 5000 and i paid 4100. so u know that is gonna be a bit above what they paid for it.

if one bike was better than the other wouldn’t everyone have the same bike? and who is your brother.
