I have a 03 recon and my dad has a 99 foreman and before he got his new muffler i could beat him but now that he has a new muffler it is very close but he is a little faster.

The 99 foreman is not a 500cc they are 400cc or 450cc and are much slower than the 500cc...The 500cc came out in 05 I own one it will do aboat 58mph...

you really need to count the weight of rider and weight of bikes to. If you go far enugh the larger cc bike will win but in a short race the smaller lighter cc bike will get their faster.

if one guy is 500lbs and the other guy is 5lbs and they race 10 feet the recon still would not win, even if the dude on the foreman had no arms the recon would still lose.it not that hard 450cc or 230 cc? know your from ky and all ,but come on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] thats as funny as recon es vs banshee. you guys smoke some good sh*t

Don't put the recon down unless you've rode one for a while, they are more impressive than people give them credit for. Off the line I think the recon would take the foreman, the foreman is a tank compared to the recon, and doesn't get moving real quick. Up on top the foreman would definitely win hands down though.

Another thing you gotta look at to is the gearing. A foreman is a 4wd and geared alot lower then the 2wd recon.

its double the power almost.450cc-250cc=200cc/ there i did the math for you, do you understand? you can lead a horse to water but sometimes you have to drown them.
