Help me decide on my next bike...Part 2

[CrashDaddy]

I'm moving up from my CFR250 to a 450. Right now I'm leaning heavily towards the Yamaha YZ.

I just got off the phone with my local dealer. They have an'03 and an '04, both new.

Would I be giving up much by going with either of these vs. going with an '05?

Thanks for the help

it just depends on your riding style, the yzf450 is a grunt monster and have a ton of explosive power while the crf450 is just as good but just easier to ride
