Default Raptor, banshee, or KFX 700?!

Im planning on getting a new fourwheeler soon, and i havent decided yet what i want to get. My friend has a kfx 700 and that thing flies i know that. I havent rode a 660 raptor yet so i dont know. We dont do much track(mx) stuff, we usually are in open fields and trails.

I've got a Craycraft 686 for sale that would MX pretty good and beat the pants off of the KFX.

PM if interested.

Open fields and trails; well, you might be satisfied with a KFX700. They aren't as sporty or throaty as a Raptor, but I imagine it would be a little more plush of a ride. The raptor rocks everywhere, though, and is good for all around stuff and makes for a lot of fun on long trips. I would also consider price. I don't know the msrp of the KFX, but the raptor is around $6200-6400 out the door. Happy hunting.

The Raptor. No question about it. It is the ultimate trail ride.

id have to say raptor, because im biased towards 4 strokes and the KFX looks like a lawnmower.
