    450R or 450X?

    by CrazyHead13 » Tue Jun 05, 2007 11:16 am

    Hello everyone...I am moving back to the states, Washington St., in Sept. I used to ride a '03 250R. I can't decide on what I should buy. I am a novice rider to dirt but, lots of road time on sportbikes. I will be riding track and trails, probably more time at the track for now. I might also dabble in SuperMoto. What do you guys think will be the better way to go R or X?

    Well for trails I'd say the X and track I'd say R. but then again I live in California and all that smog crap here with green stickers and red stickers.....I don't know about Washington so..... But i put a spark arrestor on my R and ride it on trails too. The spark arrestor seems to make most rangers ok with it. The R comes better tuned than the X off the floor and weighs less seeing as there is not battery or lights and other smog stuff. So it all depends what you are looking for in a bike. Electric start? or kick Start? detuned or not detuned off the floor?
