I could use some outside opinions

Me, personally find it more exciting riding a modded ride, the thrill factor is always higher!
I built several turbo engines before (cars), and its MUCH more fun riding a turboed 1.6 opel corsa than a m3 or even m5 bmw.
Done the vtec turbo too...
Latest project was a 2jzgte (supra) custom job, in a pickup. Ran 400kw and it was a moster.

In the end, I would like both, the blaster, and the yfz... but im very biased towards the blaster, for the FUN powerband.
Note: I have never riden a stock blaster yet, just modded ones, so its difficult to compare how slow the stock ones really are. But one thing is certain, my one is definitely not slow! And I would never let a kid, or unexperienced rider ride it.

I fitted some 20" rears to see if it would help with some extra tracion in the soft sand, but thought it would affect the acceleration/pull, but to my surprise, it still is popping wheelies when accelerating (1/4 throttle) from idle, on tar. And that is with a 4" extender swinger...
I initially prefered the 18"ers, but had issues in the soft sand, and getting the chain covered in sand.

If possible, ride both, and judge for yourself. (Try and ride a modded blaster though, to compare)

just finished doing some work to my yfz450, rejetted it, cam mod, zip tie mod etc etc, onlyu power mods she has a a sh*tty fmf slip on and a uni filter, and let me tell you this, thing rips, like flat out screeeeammms.

my KOR top end, aggresive trail ported jug, hemi head mod, toomey blaster wouldnt even attempt at coming close, and by close i mean not even a thought of coming close to my yfz. totally and completely differnt animal.

riding the blasty was like ok this is a quick quad, riding the yfz is like this is a flicking fassst bike. But of coarse two completely different bikes from very different eras.

straton.
