[QUOTE="RBW, post: 62025, member: 18864"] Well, funny you should ask. I just rode both yesterday. Actually , the yamaha was WR 400. The Husky was a 2001 and th YZ was a 2000. The Husky totally suprized me the way it handled and felt. It has a more modern seating arrangement, much flatter with no bulbous tank. It is very narrow feeling and not all that heavy feeling. Contrary to some magazine reports.The left side kicker had me concerned and I could'nt start the bike.My friend had to start it for me. I'm only 140 lbs. so I,m kinda a wimpy bike starter.However, I did stall the bike out on the trail and I was able to get it started. I think the bike handles as good as the Yamaha. The motor is completely different. It does not even remotely rev out like the Yamaha.It has a ton of deceiving power.You lug it and when accelerating hard , short shift it.Unlike the Yamaha where you can just pin it and let it rev to the moon.The yamaha feels like the more fun of the two, just because of that unique power band.However, having never ridden a husky before, I was very Impressed. Very modern bike with very good suspension and more traditional four stroke power. The Yamaha, not as modern ergonomics, but with more explosive power. Less power, yet more burst. ------------------ Rob '00 GasGas XC250 [/QUOTE]
