1- The YFZ450R 09 model is a good bike. I love mine, just not the Rossier exhaust. Looks like ya after the one on ebay that has a Rossier exhaust. They are VERY LOUD and the first weld has broke on mine. Other then that the exhaust makes good power.
2- The KTM 450XC seems like an alright bike. Other people might be able to comment on this.
3- YFZ450 07-08. I think I know the bike ya looking at. This is a great looking bike. Has all the bells and whistles. Very good bike if ya going to race it.

Thanks

Try over the tyres & under the chassis & over the opposite tyre at the front. Ditto for the back.
I've a masters in bush mekanics............That'll save the plastics......

I've had my KTM for a while, and the only problem I have had was some stale fuel when I didn't ride it for about a month!! I'm ashamed to say that it dosn't get serviced that often, but it keeps on humming!! The width is one of the best features, as you can change it for different situations, as it has spacers behind the rear wheels standard. You just remove the wheel nut, take the wheel off, take off the spacer, put the wheel back on, then the spacer then the wheel nut and and its about 15cm narrower either side!!
I must admit, my KTM 450XC is my first quad, and I know I'm gonna sound diased, but ORANGE ALL THE WAY!!!!!
Even my 6 week old daughter has KTM gear!!!
