Other then that they said the Bomb was way under powered, the suspension with it’s 12” travel was acceptable at best and because of its weight it was not a good handler in anything but straight wide open desert running. The Bomb was also the only one tested that didn’t have a reverse or state-of-the-art Electronic Fuel Injection.
<<<<<<<<<<<&lt ;

Way under powered? I don't believe this for a second. The V-force 700 isn't EFI unless it's been upgraded for this year. All three are excellent quads, for power to weight ratio go with the Raptor, for ease of use and raw power, go for the Kawi......for a FAST and extremely durable quad go with the Baja650.

So no one can still tell me which is the better drag bike to go with. Which of these two engines is capable of making more power and will be the better set up.

I'd say the DS, there is probably more potential with the Rotax single piston and I THINK the Raptor is more like a 680?? I can beat my buddies YFZ450 IF I can keep the front end down through first and second.

The Bombs jumped out to an early lead in 06, the Raptors are going to come on strong in the 2nd half.

HPR (hpresearch.net) is the company for the fast DS's like I said earlier they have built the bikes that won both FSW's(hillshoot) and Planet Sand(drag race). I don't know what their numbers were but I know that they are the WORLD RECORD HOLDERS for four stroke singe cylinder in a 300' drag... the 2 smokes could not even hang with them, yes they beat them too. Do a search for "planet sand" and you will see what I'm sayin'. I say DS all the way. I don't know who's building the fast Raptors... maybe Craycraft?
