A friend of mine just picked up an outlaw 500 2 months ago and the thing feels really slow, in fact another friend has a pred 500 and he schools the outlaw bad, too the point where he thinks there might be something wrong with his machine, but it runs smoothly. So I was just wondering if this is normal or if he should be going to the dealer.
Thanks, Terry

 

i understand .. my cousin just bought a '07 preddy and ive got an outlaw and the preddy keeps up with me decently, but not all the way.. it could be the driver.. but the main advantage that the preddy has over the outlaw is that the pred doesn't have to flex its suspension before it takes off,, so it can get off the line more solid than the outlaw.. so thats where the only diff is between the two. if hegetting spanked as bad as you say thell them to switch wheelers and then race each other.. he just might not have gotten used to the clutch yet... my thought's... if i dont get the jump on the pred it is hard to get back in front.. so the bikes are pretty equal...
