Dont wanna be mean about it since you own a lt250 but I raced a one at moses lake this weekend on the flats (which my quad is not set-up for) and beat it by 5-7 quad lengths in about 125 yards. So then he went and got his buddy with a cannondale speed with moto 4 mapping and big gun pipe and still beat him by 2-3 quads lengths multiple times. I was not impressed at all for a 9000 quad or whatever they cost, maybe it was just that one ....

hell no... man please takes more to **** me off... but i hear the this one guy has both and they are pretty close to being overall the same speed... holeshot is wat counted... so if an lt is as fast as an raptor... then it should be as fast as a ds 650... i guess time will tell

LT 250's are slow, handle like shiz, fall apart, and look like dog dookie. there I said what everyone was thinking. They absolutely suck. Always have, always will, Sorry but it's the truth,
Alright i disagree... have u owned one ??? dont talk crap bout a bike that is just as good as any other old 2 stroke.... i cant believe u can cap on a bike that hard i have had my bike for bout 2 years and not one part has broken... imma get on my bike andr ace my friend on his raptor and and him his *** when he gets back to me when i am waiting for him at the finish line[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]
