Oh and someone asked.... I bought my 450 last year for $3000 and sold it this year for $3500 and then bought the Raptor 700 for $3000 so I made $500 and got a years worth of riding out of it.... I'm not downing the 450's at all... they just are not for me and my kind of riding. Maybe on the track yeah, but for the trails, not for me. Plus I mad the mistake of buying a quad with a suspension setup for someone 50 pounds lighter then me. If it was setup for me I know it would have been a lot better. Also I was tired of hitting dead end trails and having to get off and pull it around, also the kickstarter was not that good for the trails either. I'm really happy with it so far and will know more this weekend when I take it on a ride. Also can complain selling a 05 and buying an 08 that values for more.
