no
YFZ 450 has 39hp
56 horsepower at 9000 rpm
42-43 hp
20 mph
I heard the Suzuki has more top end speed but the YFZ is quicker
12 and its slow
a stock 2008 450r has 55 horsepower at 11,270 rpm
The KTM sx is fast but the yfz is the best for what I do, what kind of riding do you do?
That is something you will need to research on your own. The horsepower ratings are Honda 450R 42 hp and the YFZ 450 39 hp. But you are as aware as I am that hp ratings aren't the whole story, especially in the dirt. yamaha450-i don't care what people say a yfz450 is faster than a trx450...acceleration and top speed...a yfz is lighter (approx 100pounds) but a trx is said to last longer...honda is know for quality...but my yfz has been fine except for the water seal breaking...so as long as you service it properly I would go yfz
stock horsepower is right around 32..... piped,jetted,wit airbox lid off right around 42 www.gtthunder.com dyno sheet for yfz
