i know i will love it. i ride my friends all the time (you can check it out in my photo album). i just really want a raptor. ever since they came out i have wanted one. i mean their just so sweet lookin and i can make it go really fast with less money than a 400. and biggy don't take this the wrong way but i always felt my LT was more of a bike than the 400. i always liked 2 strokes i guess (besides i could blow him away in a drag race and i've even beat him around tracks). i know i'll be happy with a 400 but i'll be happier with a raptor.

ps- all last night i was dreaming about taking this girl that i really like for rides on my new 400. hee hee.

 

What a bodacious fruit! Anyways, glad to hear everything turned out for the better even though you didnt end up with a Raptor. I think the trade off was worth it really. To bring the suspension of the Raptor to reach the balance of the Honda would cost just as much as building the motor of the 400EX to the level of the Raptor. Same difference in my mind and we all ready know the Honda is bullet proof.

 

Hey Juggalo, I'll keep my eyes open for anyone looking to trade an R for an EX.Chances are there is some idiot that would.Glad to hear you'll be up and riding again!

 

Personally I think you'd be crazy to trade a better handling quad for one that is 13 years old but thats just me. Yea its a 2 stroke, on the other hand the 400 makes comparable power and it handles quite a bit better in stock trim and any aftermarket suspension mods you do on either quad will yield the same results.

 

not me. i just love the way 2 strokes feel. i'm just a better rider on a 2 stroke than i am on a four stroke i guess.

 

it all depends on what you like.

some people like 2 strokes and some 4.

I prefer a 2 myself, but no one makes a new one! and i don't really want an old one.

banshees, no..blaster..did that once
