What to expect when buying a new Yamaha: Picking up my 2024 YFZ450R + Why I chose this over a Raptor
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- This was my experience when buying my first new ATV ever. I've spent years buying, building, and selling used ATVs so this will be the first one with only me putting the hours on it. I wanted to shed some light on what you can expect when shopping for and buying new a ATV. I also dive into why I chose the YFZ instead of a Raptor (for now).

Good choice, Support the ones supporting the sport! Nice unit, cant wait to see the build!
@theviking4525 already cooking up some upgrades 🤘🏼
I've always favored yamaha but oddly the yfz is the only 450 I haven't ridden...I have gotten to ride the only randy savage 450 though thanks for letting me test that out down at brewers!
Taylerr!! Whats up man 🤙🏻🤙🏻 for me itching for a ktm since the Indiana trip..thanks alot 🤣
@@OdysseyOffroad I don't see any reason why you shouldn't add one to your fleet Joe!
@@taylertreanor haha im eying one. Or the husky variant I ike the Beta line up too!
@OdysseyOffroad not a bad choice in any of those all very superior for enduro/trail riding I love my ktm
Always loved the yamaha blue 💙
@yeetygonzalez5843 The two-tone this year really grew on me
sweet bike brother, cant wait to see the mods!!
@leedimatteo5078 coming soon 🤘🏼
I wanted a YFZ for many years, finally got one in 22 and love it. I assume you know about the clutch basket--they can explode. Replace it with an 09. There is a great video on youtube comparing different aftermarket pipes on a dyno, RP Race, Dasa, and Rossier. You might want to check that out before getting a pipe. The same guy (Sarmiento Motorsports) also just did an intake shootout.
I like that butter poster chillin in the background lol
@@Stubbz33 signed by Gueter himself 🤘🏼😆
@@SQUARE1SpeedChannel haha i got one in the trophy room too😂 ill shoot ya a pic of the autograph wall
I paid about the same for my Raptor which I didn’t think was a bad deal. I was torn between the YFZ & Raptor but I thought for being more of a trail rider the raptor was the right choice for now but like ya said would love to own both down the road. I was surprised tho that the YFZ at my dealer was more then the Raptor both the same color.
Can't wait for more videos on the yfz450r 🤘
@@Cam450-dt6ts there will be more soon. 🤘🏼
Best dealership in Arizona by far and the reason I bought 6 machines there. #supportlocalbusiness #savesportquads
@@OdysseyOffroad I agree with you there. I would go back if I was ready for a Raptor already.
thats awesome man 🤟🤟
WELCOME TO YAMAHA!!!!
@@teamvillalpandoracing7839 I was wondering when you'd chime in! 😆
Awesome video bruh,cant wait to see the mods
@@700rRaptorLife comin right up 👊🏼🫵🏼
Great video brother
@JacksonOffroad25 thanks, man. I felt it would be a good, short video to share.
@@SQUARE1SpeedChannel gotta love dealers who try to take advantage of people 🙄. Glad you were able to work a deal with a great dealer! Can’t wait to see what you do with that thing I’m sure it’ll be wild!
Sweet! Wouldn’t mind having one just for the EFI.
I paid 8500 OTD for my 2020. Crazy the price of these things.
This next video better come SOON!!! Since the surgery, I've just been laying here with nothing to do. I need to see more vids of your OWN YFZR to keep me entertained! Also so I can poke at you! As I'm sure you're aware, I'm a little familiar with them. So any help I can be, please let me know. Hopefully that first part you "already have" is a cushion clutch basket..........
@@DocAtrox 😁 I've done my homework.
For me I don’t think they are worth it at this prices , they need different tires and clutch the sec you leave the dealership, I’m not even talking about ltr geometry, but hopefully you will have fun with it
@996turbo they have definitely gone up in price over the years, but I will say: so far just riding it stock has been awesome. And the suspension is good enough that I'll leave it for as long as I can. Any other sport ATV, that would've been a $4-5,000 upgrade as soon as you get home. The clutch, flywheel bolts, and tuning are easy fixes. At least, that's my justification.
@@SQUARE1SpeedChannel I just sold one and picked a 2017 , didn’t even ride it yet hopefully with all the stuff on it , it will turn like the Suzuki.
@996turbo I hear ya. I have the LSR "LTR geo" front end on the Honda. It's way better that stock, but still not quite like a Suzuki.
@@SQUARE1SpeedChannel I seen the videos bad ass trx ! My buddy just installed Walsh set up ltr geo trx250 , I wish you was in Florida you would fall in love with it especially been Honda guy
$15K for YFZ, Was it race ready at least? 😂😂😂 Congratulations!
@suzukiltr4503 not even close. It was the exact same thing you see in the video. Definitely a smart move to shop around 😬
I need to move to AZ.. screw cali 😂
@@Bumpertrash1 that would be a smart move 👌🏻
