[QUOTE="placelast, post: 1113346, member: 22683"] At your height, moreover riding intent, you certainly want to do a few laps on a 450 before taking the plunge; the Yamahas are tall, and all 450s brutally powerful - so much bike that it would plain wear me out with all that firepower on tap; they are not gentle giants. That's not to say it would not be a good choice for you or anyone else - just be sure what you are getting yourself into - it's a whole different animal than a 125 or 200. My observation and preference is to be wanting motor rather than regretting excess and the baggage it brings. Hence, the 250 (351) RFS i recently bought as opposed to converting a 250 MXer for off-road; the former I can wring for all it has and at teh same time avoid the emergency room, whereas the latter is much closer to that trip to the Dr. I'm all for getting something a bit different with each new bike purchase (because life deserves to be lived to it's fullest; there are many things to be experienced and appreciated before one leaves), although that's (450) is like being on the other side of the world of where you perhaps want to be.
