Hello,

 I am looking at buying my first ATV. I've been in the performance watercraft world all my life, and I have finally decided to move on to different powersports.

I have some knowledge on atv's. I have rode them before, and have looked at several different models.

The models I have tested are.

KTM 450
YFZ 450
Raptor 700
Kawasaki 450mx
Suzuki LTD 450

I absolutely loved them all.

I am wondering which one would be best for me.  I will mostly be doing trail riding, and some sand riding.

I am a total speed demon, and gear head as well.  I am 100% positive in a few short months after I get one I will be wanting to start wrenching on it, and adding performance parts.

Any and recommendations or comments will be greatly appreciated.
