Called LA Cycles and the waiting list is into October, also they are getting 6999 for new 05's which seems a little steep. So my next question is does anyone have an 04 for sale? And what is the difference between the 03, 04 and 05?
Ive got an 04 crf450 and after 3 generations of of YZF's- 400,426 & 450 I switched to RED. It was painful, but its the easiest bike to go faster on. I weigh 250lbs and thought because the YZF had more punch, Id need it. I can ride twice as long at the track on the crf than I could on the YZF. It has a great powerband yet strong power when you need it. If you can swing an 05 do it- A couple of my buddies work at the magazines and theyre saying the 05 is the best bike made to date. If you cant swing new, defintely go 04. Majorly better bike than 02 & 03. Add a power now & a white bros pipe and the thing is unstoppable. No need for suspension work either- perfect out the crate.
Hmmm, when did you say the 05's will be here :idea:
