I have a 2002 raptor 660 with a slip on pipe and a moose air filter. my friend has a stock new 450r and he wants to drag race and i think i can take him. What do yall think about this matchup and tell me if the raptor has better acceleration and a higher top speed than the 450 r. Who do you think will win????????

 

It depends on alot of things like weight difference and rider skill. But all things being equal and your friend has '06 or '07 model then he may have the edge. They are quicker than the '05 so I'm told.

 

Sorry, but the new 450R will beat your Raptor in a drag race. The Raptor may beat the 450R in top speed.

 

i would not try his 450r vs your 660 .....

 

Hmmm. I've owned both. My old 660 had a slip-on, and a HotCam 1, lid off and rejetted (of course). I would get beat by yfz's with slip-ons and cam mods, as well as trx's with pipe/cam mods racing Olds Hill in Glamis.

So, to answer your question, the 660 with those mods would give a stock 04/05 trx a good run. Probably beating the trx by a couple lengths. The 06/07 trx is faster and would make it a good race if it was stock.

Mod the 450's with cam/pipe and the 660's will lose unless they have some motor work done. After that - the answer will be depending on who spent the most on motor work.

Now, the situation on a track is a different story and the 450's will take wins there all day long...

 

HEY I SMOKED A Z400 on the track!! lol it was a 12 year old girl lmaoo

 

o yeah and with my mods i take 04 and 05 450r's without TOO much trouble all the way around, especially top speed.. I have to gear down though then i will really pwn [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
