I went to the dunes with my friend who has a Predator for the first time and I was very impressed with its performance. He was going places my V and two other Raptors couldn't go. The Predator has the Pure Polaris slip on and a k&n filter with GBC sand devil paddles, my V has Pro Circuit T-4 duals, HPD Plain spring, k&n and Kenda dune runner paddles, the Raptor has k&n with sand gecko paddles. Going up sand mountain he would just walk away from us. We're both pretty good riders and have ridden for many years so that wasn't a factor. I love my V and am very happy with how it performs but hats off to the Predator that is a great bike [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Hey, that's cool. It's nice to read a report about another bike that is not biased. My buddy has a '03 Pred., loves it.

I got a 03 pred and love it, never tried a v, but would like too

 

To all of us automatic owners I got the chance to ride a v-force last weekend and WOW this quad is awsome. It still feels heavy but the power makes you forget how heavy it is. It rides real smooth and soaks up the bumps like crazy. It had the new orange color with all the bolt on goodies.It looked cool. This is a really sharp quad. Very responsive and has no problems what so ever getting the front wheels up. The balance point was nice also. Now if Polaris could make a 700 efi scrammy these could be a new breed of automatic quads.
