the 2009 Kawasaki KFX 450R Monster Energy looks awesome!Im trying to understand speed on diffent cc's.How fast will the 450's go,the 300's and so on?(on average..stock parts)Ive driven maual but it has been 2 years and i pretty much forgot everything I had learned.My neighbor had a banshee and that was the one i drove and it was hard at first if i remember correctly but got easier.My biggest problem was when to shift and shifting smoothly.

Like I said, stay away from that 450 if you are wanting a trail quad. That Kawasaki is freakin amazing, but it is a race ready fourwheeler, which means that there is a chance that it only runs on race fuel, and if thats the case, then it goes through it a lot faster than the 300. But that is something that you'd have to ask the dealer. But race ready and trail ready are too way different things. The 450 is going to accelerate a lot faster and be a lot less friendly when you are trying to take it easy on a trail. The 450 might try to wrap up on you and just take off. I had a blaster that was terrible about that. But the final choice is up to you.

As Mossbergman11/Oh said it takes no skills to ride them.Sounds perfect for me since Im not sure I would like a maual.I just want to trail ride and maby a few small jumps...nothing big.I dont want to have to worry about shifting when im on a trail and forget or something.The kfx 700 has more than enough power and it being automatic would make it more fun for me to ride and not worry about shifting.The only thing different from the kfx and all the other ones is its auto right?I dont think it would be boring lol.

i honestly would go with the Yamaha YFZ450. manuals arent that hard to learn to drive. they are alot funner and better than automatics

i made the decision to get the Kawasaki kfx700 after seeing what they are capable of when they have after market parts.I know any quad will do that but this one seems like the right choice for me.Ill probably get all the after market goodies(monster exhaust,orange clutch spring,cams,rev box, etc...)Stock they go around 70 but with all the extras they are smokin.
