the one im looking at is an 02. why are the honda 450s so popular? if i go the 250 route which brand would be recommended?

08-09 wr250x or any of the newer crf450s will do and Ryan at 50stunt makes HB setups for um.

i guess this is my main question, whats the difference between a yz426f and a crf 450? why is the crf a better bike?

i Love the bike and think that it would be a Blast in the streets/lots
but im still getting use to the Hot/cold start choke and The TDC starting

My (squints old wr450 ) kicks like a 2 stroke if you do it right

There is a process to start them but when you got it down they start like a 250 2 stroke

this is true once I got it down i could start my bike with my left leg standing to the right of it but if you dont know how to do it and it kicks back watch out!!!! punched a big hole in bottom of my boot and bruised my foot bad!!!

also SUMO wheels are gonna be expensive and your prolly gonna wanna get a heavy flywheel

but now i got a 04 yz450 and it starts way easier because of the auto decomp cam might be worht getting also you can use on off a newer yz 450
