[@philipleblanc62]

Absolutely love Hondas and I think both of these bikes are equivalent for everyday riding but on the track all you need is a chip and exhaust for the yfz to be track ready on race day where as the TRX you need a cam job to be power equivalent for race day and the suspension adjustment capabilities on the YFZ is all there but for the most part stock-for-stock those bikes are pretty equal for riders that don't know any better jumping from one to the other

[@justinhaskett3417]

We all know Yamaha is faster, but the Honda is more reliable. I've one both, and 2 YFZ 450's. Current YFZ is Modded. Its a beast, but my Honda never needed as many repairs :D

[@tstrick1627]

I've owned both a 04 YFZ GNCC set up and currently own a 14 450ER GNCC set up. The YFZ is hands down a lil faster. Especially the carb models. The TRX is a beast once you cam and port it. Plus it simply last longer. Both great bikes either way you look at it. I would own both if I could afford it. 😎😎

[@prestonbailey4450]

I think it all depends on where you ride. Where I ride. TRX models are king due to the WOT desert racing. The Ezra length of the TRX helps with the tougher terrain. But at the truck the YFXs have the advantage

i’ve owned both yfz 450 special edition it was yellow and a black honda trx 450, both had little work done on them and the yfz would keep up with with my trx 450 for 20 30 yards after that trx would pull away. my honda trx 450 was a mean machine

[@adammorgan1198]

Depends on these factors: 1. Rider ability 2. Modifications/aftermarket Stock for stock...Yamaha comes out of the box as the faster machine. (P.S. - I ride a tricked out 04/05 Honda 450R), but the Honda responds to modifications better. With the right mods on both machines...it really is equal though. All quads in the 450 displacement will plateau at a certain level and all be very comparable.

From factory the TRX450R is held back by the restrictive exhaust and intake, hell the exhaust is so stopped up it's literally less than 1 inch in diameter and under the air filter is 10 layers of very fine mesh screen. After uncorking the exhaust, intake, and proper jetting it becomes a completely different quad when done right.

Uni cam has a strong holeshot power but the yfz handles better and mid to top end yfz all day. The carb model yfz will pull 73mph stock and they come a tad lean from the factory and could use the zip tie mod switch the main jet do the zip tie mod and cam mod for a technical bone stock machine you’ll see 75mph and crisp throttle response. I’ve owned every 450 I’ve been in the 450 game since 08 I’ve had two trxs and 6 yfzs and the yfz is definitely faster stock for stock even with the big 3 yfz is faster. Get some knowledge first before you throw a opinion out there fan boy

[@mossow71]

dasatrx450r let’s be real the two best 450s are the ktm 450 sx and the 08/09 ltr 450. The ktm pumps out 52hp to the wheels while a quick air box lid removal baffle delete and cherry bomb will give the Ltr 50.9 hp to the wheels. By far in the straight line or on the track the ktm and ltr are much more superior then a Honda the suspension alone classifies then as a true race ready bike it would take thousands for a Honda to compete with either
