YFZ is a better jumper, but dont tell OFC that.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] YFZ accelerates faster and gets to the top end faster, Raptor has higher top end speed.

R u guys all retarded? the bike doesnt make chit for diference. Its all about whose riding it. I'll out jump most of ya'll on an lt-50 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] well for one jump anyway. the landing might be kinda rough [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] But seriously if ya have room to get the speed its all about the person ontop of the quad. I really preffer the raptor for big air. Its smooth power works well for me accelerating thru the transitions. The YFZ lands a lil better but thats a differnt question. you said jumper not lander [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] and i would guess if i took my big ol' trail tires off the rap and threw on some 18" or 20" tires I could land it a bit more crossed up.

The deal is with jumpin its all about how big a ballz you got boys. faster you hit the jump the higher and farther you will go. dont matter what your on till ya hit the ground and it falls apart [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
