Bill Ballance YFZ450 GYTR
Well,I went to the local Yamaha dealership to checkout the Raptors 700's and couldn't pass this one, a Bill Ballance YFZ450 GYTR. Here's where my 408 budget went...................................for now.

Careful with that. You can get out of hand spending money on those. I've got a 400ex I set up for MX that I've got $9,000 in and a YZ426 dirt bike that I was gonna pull the motor out of to put in my 400ex sitting in storage. My brother has and '86 250R that we completely built for MX that he has $13,000 in sitting in storage.
I wish the new Yamahas and Hondas where out when I bought my 400ex. My only option was a that or a Banshee. I've got all that money in mine and it still won't run with the new quads in a straight line.

that is another expensive hobby.

NIce bike!!
My buddy races 4wheelers...
He has had:
Yamaha YFZ450 with $8300 in mods... yea it was crazy.. went through 3 rear ends.
Suzuki 450,, i think he had something like $3k in just suspension. and who knows what in the engine. couldnt keep the steering set up right... something went funny with it... ??
Honda 450R, $1800 in Mods, and man its crazy fast.. he has taken almost 6 seconds off his record at most tracks compared to the other 2 bikes. and it was overall cheaper.

It's all about getting the right mods.........I'm sure I'll be adding some things here and there but I hope not to go too crazy with it. I've had street bikes but never a 4 wheeler so I just bought this one to F**k around, as for me being new to riding this thing it's got more than I can handle for now but we all know how this is.
