I am thinking of going orange. I have ridden/raced since 1980. My fastest years were 99-05 where I was about a middle intermediate. I now mostly ride vet tracks and jump whatever's there. I no longer ride the bigger tracks like the main one at Racetown 395. I prefer an electric power delivery. I am tired of the kick starter and carburetors. I weigh 200 lbs geared up.
Can I get some opinions on which one of these bikes and which years would be best? Thanks guys.

I felt the 350 to be a little peaky compared to the 450, but STRONG compared to my 270.
What are you on now?
Coming from a 250F, the 350 felt good.
I ride a yz295 (Eric Gorr) and I'm not sure the 350 is as fast as that bike, but its so easy to ride. My knees appreciate electric start, too. Maybe Its due to my being old, but if I had the money, I'd be riding a brand new 350.

If you like to lug a bike and do not carry descent momentum through turns go 450.
If you don't mind revving a bike and being aggressive to with the 350.
Get the 450.

As long as you have a weird length 8mm t-handle or a short handle socket driver you're set. haha
