Out with the old and in with the new. See thats where suzuki made their mistake. Those old QUADRUNNERS in WHITE were actually BEATING the yellow quad racers .... so .... suzuki DISCONTINUED the whole line of QUADRACERS vowing NEVER to make yellow PERFORMANCE quadracers again. Now testing was done before the release of the LTR450 and some people .... slower people .... wanted yellow as a tribute to the OLD ... OBSOLETE .... SLOWER .... yellow quadracer. Suzuki listened to the people and offered 2 models.

1. The white LTR450 - F ..... the -f is for FASTER. This is a lable put on the engine at the production facility. the -f models then have white fenders installed and the -f is removed from all paer work.

2. The yellow LTR450 - S ...... the -s is for SLOWER. This lable is put on the SLOWER engines at the production facility. The -s models then have YELLOW fenders installed and the -s is removed. Now all people are happy.

I HEARD THIS INFO FROM DIGGER DOUG #55 directly ...... before he was banned from this site

Well you are quite confuesd with the true story. Back when suzuki wanted to make the fastest quad around, the quadzilla, they were made in yellow not white. Made in yellow because white would be too slow for the name, along with the quad racer. White wasnt made then because everyone wanted to go fast. Now there are people who dont mind going slower, so they made the white ones for those kinda of people. As you can see here, evidence to back my story.... :p

Even this guy with a streetbike motor knows, Wanna go fast? better be yellow.



Ok here is another example. Obvously if Hotwheels wanted to make thier car they would model it on the Fast version, which they did. YELLOW! See they even made the rims yellow, cant have white ones.

Oh and if you guys are wondering why JJ and the digger have white quads here why. Suzuki wants to get more families into riding. Although winning is important, sales make more money. So Here was thier plan. Have the pro riders run white, slower of course, and then people coming into the sport would purchase the white ones as thier beginner quad just like the riders on tv. Then later in life step up to the yellow if they are ready for it.

"step up"...he he he...

The only "stepping up" the yellslow ones do is to get their asses handed to them... :p

The real reason they are yellslow is so the owner of the rental quad place can keep track of them on the course...Suzuki knew it would be easier...

I'm pretty sure they have a GPS that plugs into the yellow ones "CRBM" socket...helps them keep track of those amatuer riders in case they get lost trying to follow a faster white LTR... :p

Yellow is definitely rental quad worthy. I've said it before, I'll say it again my zilla loved the white when I switched colors. This is why I got the white ltr. :lol:

JJ and Gust are using white suz, as i seen. What about Dana Creech? He KILLED all atvs on the supermoto until he wrecked it at the end (DIRT WHEELS, pg. 19). Dana said that it was too powerful and fast.. What about William Yokley? I have seen him riding yellow suz on DIRT WHEELS and ATVSCENE.COM (shown on pic below).. What about Jason Lughburg? According to the DIRT WHEELS with a picture of him on his yellow suz, " Jason Lughburg is very happy with his new Suzuki ride!" with his smile! All of those riders who are using yellow have been in top 10 since this summer. I don't think the color shows the difference, Its SUZUKI LTR450, bros!
