Not sure about the 2008, but I've got a 2004 and a 2007 and have not had any problems with either of them!

The yfz is pretty much bullet proof. Still rated as number one 450 in it's price range. My 04 is still running strong

No common problems with 2008's. The nice thing about them is they are identical to the carbureted 2009 YFZ in every way.

Another neat thing about '08s is they have the high end shocks that only came on the '07 SE's.

This was my '07 before I sold 'er.
