    By ChevyDave (I am an Owner) on Jan 25, 2014

    I'd never rode a manual ATV (or automatic) before but the YFZ 450R 09' is quick to learn on and has plenty of speed even with my self weighing over 320 Highly Recommend

  • Can't go wrong with this ATV
    By Bob Anderson (I am an Owner) on Dec 10, 2008

    The Yamaha YFZ 450 R is probably one of the best sport ATV's on the market for all riders of varied skill-levels. It is smooth, but also agile. It has plenty of power. I guess its everything you would expect in a mid-sized ATV from Yamaha.

    Nice work Yamaha.
