Raptor or Suzuki 400
Welcome to the forums[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I've ridden both and own a '03 Z400. The raptor was a '03 also. The difference I felt betweent the 2 was the Z had power through the entire power band. The raptor felt like it didn't have good mid range. I can be in any gear on the Z, give it fuel and it will pull away. On the raptor it wouldn't. It could of been the raptor I was on. But, it was pure stock and not ridden all that much. Buddy rode the same two quads and bought 2 '03 Z400[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I suggest riding both if you can[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] You will get different opinions here. Also, do a search. I'm sure you will find plenty of reading[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I really think the Z is by far the best all-around machine out there! It is not the fastest machine, but it is fast (the engine hops up very well) and is proving to be very reliable. It handles extremely well and has a light feel.
I don't like the Raptor much, at least not in stock form. It carries its weight high in the frame, and is pathetically narrow. This all combines to make it tippy. I would have to spend thousands of $$$$ on a wider axle, a- arms, suspension.........not worth the trouble.
