Same here I dont care much about top speed either. Next year I hope to have my little 250 paid for and Im probably gonna get a DS650. Ever since I rode one ive been in love. I love the smooth powerband with the continuous power all the way through.

thats cool i plan on buying the new kxz400 when it comes out...i think it looks better than the z400 but thats my opinion..... i hope kawasaki plans on making the 650 v-twin sport quad...the 650 now is 600 lbs and goes about 65mph and has great torque...imagine it in a 380lb chassis that would serouisly kick A$$. if this is true then it may be the new so called "fastest" stock quad lol

yeah that would be cool. If I dont get a DS my other option is a 400Z. I like the white one. I looks so much better. I already have a yellow quad. dont want another. So my decision would be the white suzuki or the DS650 baja. just hope I can afford it this time next year.
Oh...um sorry about getting off the subject about the zilla and the raptor. my opinion the zilla is always better. But that might be because I only like honda or suzuki.

Actually, my Zilla used to vib pretty bad.
Since my rebuild, it does not vibrate at all. In fact, it is VERY smooth and I have not had to tighten a single bolt since, nor have I had a single problem with it. (literally)

I respect your opinion though.

Find a banshee that runs right? You must be outta your mind to say that, or not have many high perf quads to race... Thats funny that you mention you have a ported 2 stroke when your friends are only running pipes. No kidding they dont want to race, like thats even a comparison!
