Raptor 660 or 400ex
hey guys, i have a 1984 honda odyssey fl250 that i am selling so i can get a sport quad. I am stuck between buying a 2001 honda 400ex or a 2001 Raptor 660. I now that the raptor has a lot more power, but it would be nice to hear from someone else. need a quad for trails and a little bit of jumping, wich is better? I am a big guy so i am kinda leaning twards the raptor

What irritates me is!
Those 6-packs work pretty good.

You pipe a raptor and it will have a lot more power but I prefer the way the EX handles. It has a lower stance and would be much better for tight trails imo. The more open the area, the more I'd lean to the Raptor. Remember the older EX's don't have reverse. You might consider a Z/KFX400 instead.

this be would the first quad for me to own, but i have ridden quads and dirt bikes since i was 9. i can handle my dads friends polaris sportsman 800, and that thing is a beast. so do you think that the raptor would benefit me better?

Either way it is personal preferance, but I wouldn't buy a '01 Rappy even if it was sold cheap.

'02 and up is the way to go. The '01's had a lot of tranny problems and one-way bearing problems, carbs kept falling off, etc. Not only are these reports from the forums, but everythign I just menitoned happened to TWO of my friend's with '01's.
