[QUOTE="holeshot, post: 153347, member: 17202"] [b].[/b] The first CR aluminum frames ('97 CR250) were not good, but that is very much my own (and many others) opinion. Some people liked them. Honda seems determined to make the aluminum frame work as well or better than steel, in all respects. They may reach that goal, but carb access on the CR450 looks tough. With any luck, the carb will be jetted close to optimum right off the showroom floor, and the only inspection required will be the throttle cables. Valve clearance adjustment looks like it may be a little involved (at least on the intakes), but if it wears like a Yamaha, they'll rarely need adjusting. I'd bet that it'll be a bit better handling (lighter) and easier starting the the YZF. This is all speculation of course (until "Joe Weekend Rider" starts picking them up and reporting back).
