 Hey Guys, Just going from my gut here....Coming from a two stroker,but I read thru all these threads constantly an I'm thinkin the 426 here... I might be wrong but from what I've read Garrett seemed to sing on that bike!! This is coming from a guy who only did a test ride on a 450 cr,and owned a puny yz 4902t at one time...just my 2cnts. if it was good enuf for motoman393.thats all I need!.....Jerry  |

 It was good enough for Garrett, but his last bike was an 03 YZ 450F... |

| Lets get serious here guys.......a 426 vs a current 450??? NO comparison, the 426 is heavy, slow, has manual decompression, heavy, steel frame.......did I mention heavy?? |

| Manual decomp is easily cured on the 426. Heavy... sure, compared to newer 450's. Slow though? I'd bet there isn't much difference there. |

| Just felt really sluggish to me....it was a awesome bike in its day but that day has passed. That being said there is alot to be said for the fact they are still around and running!! |
