Since purchasing my LTR450 awhile back I've had no intentions of selling the blaster. In fact, in the last month I've spent about a grand on suspension mods. Still waiting on some of it to come in before the big mod session. The LTR has only seen about $100 in mod money, but then again it's hard not to be happy with it off the floor.
After riding my LTR or my buddy's banshee, I can accept that my blaster certainly isn't going to be that quick on my budget. I still have fun on it though, and the thought of a nimble and light quad with great suspension is the reason I still put money into it. You don't have to be the fastest quad out there to take some sweet jumps.
