[QUOTE="James, post: 157343, member: 2"] If (according to you) the 450F has more power and torque than a 500, why would they want to get a (according to you) less powerful 500? So take the 500 out of the equation and just say any (big bike) 2 stroke? Now we're getting into rider preference, some riders just prefer how the 4 strokes handle over 2 strokes. And some prefer the 2 stroke over the 4 stroke. :noidea: Perfect example of this is the 250 classes, you can race a 250 (2 stroke) and a 250f in this class. The 250 has more horsepower so you'd think that most would ride it, however that's not the case. You want to know why? Some people prefer one bike over the other even if it less powerful. :thumb: Motocross is very mental and if you aren't comfortable on your bike you're going to be slow. [/QUOTE]
