I am having a hard time choosing between the outlaw 450 or the raptor 660 which one would you guys prefer and would be better for trail riding and climbing hills?

I don't know anything about the outlaw 450's but, after doing my research, If i didn't find anything off I'd probably go with it. I've never been a fan of the 660's. The dual carbs are a pain and they always felt heavy, tall and tippy. Just my opinion.

Outlaw 450 is a KTM engine. If it was between the Yamaha 660 and the 450 KTM I'd go with the KTM personally. If you are a good sized guy and can find a Raptor 700 it's much better than the 660.

Agree on the outlaw. My B-law has a 660 and I also think it feels high centered and tippy. Only after a lowering kit did it handle better but then it wasn't very good for trail riding.
