125 vs 400
#1
i going to race a kx 125 on my stock 400ex. His bike is supposedly stock and so is mine. I wanna know will i get beat and by how much either way. I think he will win but not by much. What kind of place should i race at. I am thinking loose sand. Any tips or technics i should know about to beat him if it is possible. I only know about atv's so dirtbikes are pretty new to me. he says it will do 75 but i was like no. bs guy. I am sorry if this topic was covered but I would like some more answers if possible. Please help out a brother.

Well I've never ridden a 400ex, but I raced my Cr125 with my friends Banshee on pavement and I got him the whole way. So if the 400ex can beat a Banshee on take off you might be able to get the 125, but top speed the 125 will win for sure. It was about even with the Banshee's speed up top. Low 70's. His number of 75 probably isn't very far off, but it does seem a little high. It's closer than any of the stock Banshee owners that claim there quads will do 85 (like my friend). If I were you I'd race him on loose gravel if possible. Maybe sand wouldn't be too bad either. Just my opinion. Later.

I've raced my 400 against my sons CR125 many times and it seems whichever one of us gets the jump at the start wins. If he spins his tires a little he can't catch me and likewise if he gets the jump at the start I can't catch him. My quad has an automatic though. A 400 with a clutch is a different story.
