Ds is a little quicker and faster than a raptor stock.

Never believe what you read. In ATV magazines anyway. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I have a 04 ds and my cousin has a 04 raptor. When we race I beat him everytime by about 4 or 5 bike lengths. We are both piped, jetted and have K&N filters.

I have a stock my raptor and my father has a stock ds we are neck and neck the whole way he beats me by about 1/2 bike lenght, but my riding buddy also has the same exact ds as my father the 04 and beats me by about 2 bike lenghts, it is very close the whole way, we were doing radar runs with the two stock raptor 75mph stock ds 77 mph, very close, as far as better rider I just cant understand that just because you are good at hole shots dosent mean you are a better rider than somebody,
