Hi everybody, here are some pictures of my recent trip to south lebanon on my ttr along with a friend on his xr. The ttr outperformed the xr everywhere from acceleration to top speed and offroading, I am not saying this because I have a ttr but we just tried them side by side and the ttr was the winner.
Here in lebanon the honda has a great reputation and everybody say to me go sell this bike and get a baja (xlr or xr), these bikes are so much popular here but i didn't like the hondas in general, I bought another bike last summer which is a wr450f with many aftermarket parts, I was shocked with the power of this bike but I still love my ttr and think that it is more comfortable for long distance trips and daily use so I'm going to keep it.
I have heard that the wr450's are a real handful, especially coming from a 250. The guy who sold me my TTR got one and kept crashing whilst powering through bends too enthusiastically!
