To answer your question YES. A stock z400 should be able to beat a stock 400ex. Also, you shouldn't be able to keep up with a Raptor (if that's what you're talking about when you say 660) unless you mean a grizzly. However, that doesn't mean the 400ex is slow, and that it isn't a good bike. They can be made to run with raptors and even after you do so they will still be as reliable as them. If you can't tell. I'm biased

my wifes stock z will smoke my piped and jetted 400ex. i have beat 660 on a small flat track but never in a drag race i have always loved honda and thouht suzukis were lame until i rode that z400 it is a very good quad. i still love riding my 400ex even if it is slower than a z400

I used to drag my 400ex till I bought a rappy. Stock to stock the ex doesn't stand a chance, piped to piped still don't stand a chance. I could take piped and filtered z by 2 to 3 quads across the dunes but I have Filtered, stage 1 cam, cdi, complete exhauset system. A rider could change both of those though.
