[QUOTE="380EXCman, post: 687288, member: 16412"] I have rode the yzf and sx 450's only once. I rode them back to back but it has been a while. They both felt very weak compared to my Husaberg. The 525 has a big power advantage. As for how it compares in the handling department I cant make a good call cause it was quite a while ago. What I can say though is that I used to think my Berg felt light, but the 525 feels way lighter. I think this bike will work great for moto. Especially for slower guys like myself that probably are not as sensitive to certain things. I know one thing though. I hear alot of guys say that they cant use all the power their bike makes anyway so the big bore bikes are overkill or inaffective. The guys saying this are usually skinny little wee men.. For someone like me, who is a B motocrosser and a B off roader that is close to 300 lbs all geared up, I need a minimum amount of hp to be effective in all the different types of riding I do. Someone who is 190 lbs and rides a 250 has a better power to weight ratio than I do by a long way. So to cleanly haul my butt up a technical climb, I need at a minimum more hp than the next guy. So I guess what Im saying is that while this bike feels perfect for me, you would need to ride one and see what you think for yourself... Jeremy will have my suspension tomorrow. Im really looking foward to giving the bike a real workout when I get it back... The dark cloud has lifted woooo hoooo, no more prozac for me........ :thumb: [/QUOTE]
