I own both these awesome machines. Love em both for different reasons. If we are lucky (sport quad ppl) Yamaha will continue building these 2 for a very long time. They are best of the best! 🇺🇸
The raptor is good for top speed and the yfz450 is good for acceleration because it’s basically their yz450f engine in a quad chassis which dirt bikes are made to accelerate really good so that’s the yfz’s main goal
@@captainaxan4967 I’m not sure if that’s how that works. I’m pretty sure that an engine will produce a certain amount of horsepower regardless of which chassis it is. Although the performance can vary depending on which chassis.
For the 700 always start in 2nd gear. You will have a better chance on getting that holeshot and reaching the top faster 😁 They will pull away from the 450 4th to 5th gear.
In off-road the 450 are so or more fast then a 700 one, depends of the type of terrain but 450 are extremely made for competition to he newer ones are beasts..they are very fast on acceleration, 700 it's cool too but the concept it's not the same, you can see clearly the difference between the style of the 2 atvs
No I’m sorry but my Trx450r , walks a raptor. Idk where you are getting this information. and my friends YFZ stays side by side with me. so I think that’s YFZ operator error who ever you seen do that
I bought a brand new YFZ 450 off the showroom floor in 2007 bone stock i could smoke beefed up Raptor 660s best racing fourwheeler ever built in my opinion... i sold it 2011 it still runs in 2022
If you ride both, you'll laugh at a banshee. They're not really that powerful unless you do alot of mods and they will beat the living hell out of you.
Banshee are cool for he nostalgia and the orgasmic sound but riding wise raptor hands down the better machine way more comfortable and 1000x more reliable
@@BobSmith-cb5xryou clearly never ridden one.😂😂😂 You right about the laughing part, except he’s going to be laughing at the raptor. No raptor on the planet want any parts of that twin cylinder. And i mean no raptor.
That 450R should have put close to 2 bike lengths on him during the hole shot. That's right about the length I had with my 450R vs a 700 then they overtake me once about tapped through the end of 4th gear.
Do not get a banshee unless you're ready for high maintenance and possibility of blowing it up. YFZ is the way to go, reliability at it's finest Raptors are overrated.
@@andrewabraham3936a yfz needs valve adjustments every 40-50hrs and a top end replacement every 100. A raptor will go 150-200hrs with nothing more than oil and filter changes. 450s aren't known for reliability.
i have a yfz 450 se with a special fuel injecter so i get off hell quickly but it also has some tuning to it im going to race my friend who has a 700 r for fun see who wins riding does not have to be for wining g
nah u dont know what you are talking ab,that yfz stays on the 700s tale and u wont smoke it yfz is fuel injected its a true beast like the ltr my dad had an welll tuned one that smoked lit smokes an wel tuned honda trx 450r and i rode it it runs good
I own a 450 and a 700 and I can tell you the 700 is definitely faster with equal skill riders, the 450 is quicker in the corners though but they are very different machines
they are pretty much equal on speed. but the 450 has way shorter service intervals with its 450 dirtbike engine. the 700 you can just change your oil every other year and your fine. still have my 08 raptor 700 i bought in 2008 :D
@@abdoarby you can drive it on highways but its very sensitive to steering input. you can tell they are made for dirt roads etc. i lowered and widened it but it is still very sensitive. but its not as wobbly as it was with stock height
Benches aren't really that fast had a Fourtrax with a CR500 in it , ate Banchees for breakfast. 2nd problem for Banchees is anytime you turn the handle bars .
@@bikelifemel6838 no yfz has been able to keep up with me low end at all. Let alone top end. Dudes just can’t drive. Its hard getting a raptor out of the hole with stock height
@@bikelifemel6838 I raced a stock raptor 700 and beat em bye about 7 bike lengths, and raced a 450 modded a beat it bye about 8 bikes lengths. This was racing up choke cherry hill in Saint Anthony sand dunes.
Both slow.. A stock banshee would give them a run.. For a 4 mill with a port job and it would be laughable.. And nope you don't need to work on them all the time
I own a 2017 YFZ and a 2021Raptor. Both stock machines very equal on speed, raptor a Trail monster with low end tourqe but heavier and not as agile. The difference really starts when you do performance mods to them. That 700motor is really choked out stock, put the big 3 on them and the raptor becomes a animal and it still wants and can handle more.
I have both and im agree with you. But i love the yfz handling and thats the reason why i chose yfz over raptor but i still luv raptor torque and power. Both are great machine
I love both bikes for different things 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Stock Yfz motor does near 40 hp where the Yz450f does near 55
@@Fox250R yes that’s because of the power to weight ratio and it being lighter

@@Green_stax yfz450r’s are pretty light for a quad so they’re fast and have good acceleration
The yz450f and yfz450r are not the same engines.
One for trail and one for track. The Raptor got a split second on that hit but they stayed dead even all the way down
For the 700 always start in 2nd gear. You will have a better chance on getting that holeshot and reaching the top faster 😁 They will pull away from the 450 4th to 5th gear.
Holeshots and the one thats faster short ways is a 450 but long ways the gearing for 700 will take a 450 anyday

Both are very nice machines but stay off the rev limiter. Shift that thang 😎
Especially for the Raptor
Yes so fun
Owned both the YFZ450 is faster and the best all around bike ever designed!
Guys u dont understand the 450s are made for racing the 700 are made for torque u can see how its build like a high quad the yfz is build very low
Like it
what is the top speed of the raptor 450 yfz?
Stock, about 80.
I'd take the yfz all day
At least they're wearing helmets😂 Bad mamajamas
Wow 🥰😍
I am thinking about buying a Raptor but I really want a Yamaha Banshee

If you continue to look we ran it back

Throw some boost at the raptor and watch it wake up
