Is the YFZ stock?

that is what i did all day sunday.and was barely beat by a highly modded shee. poor rapturd owners. :lol think that on paper they will be the winners.

get a better rider on that z400 that keeps the wheels down and i bet the drag would be closer. The z problably still wouldn't win, but the drag would probably be a little bit closer.

Is the YFZ stock?

the YFZ has airbox lid off and needle moved to #6 and spark arrestor out.

Here are pics comparing the z400 and YFZ450

Its not that much smaller but I can stand on the ground over the 450 and I can't on the 400 and it feels more comfortable and stable.

well the z's on stock tires while the yfz is on paddles. i dont think the race would be THAT much of a difference. either way, im more than impressed

I drag raced my buddy on his Z400 with a K&N, jetted and a tri oval ti Yosh pipe and he is slightly faster than my stock YFZ, it wouldn't take much to get it faster. He spanks me on my Raptor.

 

[YFZracer]

yeah those videos are bs. yeah that is a 70hp banshee :re give me a break

My stock Raptor beats my sisters souped up Banshee. I don't know how much hp, but the Banshee just has so much wheelspin that it has a hard time going, but I definitely think those are a little rigged up.

My friend has a 45h.p.+ Z400 with the yosh tri oval, K&N, Yosh 450 kit, ported, polished, drz ignition, and a 41 fcr carb. He also added 1 tooth to the rear sprocket, and added 1 tooth to the front and runs stock sized tires. This quad runs quite a bit faster than a piped-only z400. Anyways I ran dead even with him in a drag race on my YFZ 450. So either your bud has a few mods that he isn't telln you about, or your yfz ain't runn'n right. Not calln you a liar or tryn to start nothn, just lettn ya know you might wanna have your yfz checked out.

We went to the track today and another guy was there on a YFZ, he had the spark arrestor removed, air box lid removed and re jetted and he was quite a bit faster than the Z400. All I have done is take out the spark arrestor and it is now a little faster than the Z400. The sad part is, he's into his bike $6,200 and he hasn't even put suspension or A-arms on yet. I love my YFZ.

 

[zfire_28]

my friend did the same thing on his z, dropped a bunch of money in the motor without touchn the suspention. It was fast as hell, but only in a strait line. He just recently got Elka's, a-arms, and axle.

His next step is shocks and A-arms. I personally think he should have done the shocks first. He can't go fast enough to use the power because his suspension can't handle the bumps.
