One more thing that some people don't look at is how different they deliver the power. I know some people that on paper the raptor was the ideal bike for them until they rode it and the other way around. If you are an agressive rider you'lllove the 450's powerband, it is more explosive than the raptor and it makes the bike feel fast. The raptor is a torque beast and there's no need to rev it to the moon to go fast but it just doesn't feel fast unless you are on fast trails or racing the competition. I have a yfz and a kfx450 and I think the yfz is more comfortable, I do know for sure the seat is. The gearing on the yfz is perfect unlike the kfx's. But EFI and reverse is a winner combo though.

well put! YFZ does feel faster because you are working it hard to get that speed. The raptor just takes it on the chin. Never has to work hard to make the power. Short shifting etc. I still say the Raptor will win in a reliability contest as well. The 450's will need rebuilt alot sooner.

It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
