[QUOTE="zcookie49, post: 691777, member: 21043"] I just received the new Transworld Motocross magazine yesterday and read the 450f shootout. At the end of the write up for the YZ450F, it stated they were eagerly awaiting the aluminum framed Yamaha which is rumored to be in line for production. . Has anyone else heard about this? I would like to wait for that bike if this is the case. . That was the main knock they say on the bike, that the older steel frame makes you feel as if you are sitting "on top" of the bike, which makes the handling harder then the alum framed CRF which the frame makes you feel like you are "sitting in" the bike. . any truth to the alum YZF's? .................................. I read 3-4 years ago that the Yamaha designers werent interested because of no real weightsavings, and at that time the honda frames weren't perfected... Now the Honda frames are dialed in, maybe others are disecting them and fabricating their own.. I mean, Suzuki is putting it out on their 450. It seems it would be true, I just would like to know what YEAR..... :cool: [/QUOTE]
