Default Honda 250r VS Yamaha Rapter Both Stock

I just sold my tecate, it was a little faster than a stock raptor. But it had a pipe, k@n clamp-on filter and v-force reeds. I did run one stock 250r on the tecate and killed it in 660 feet. The 250r was pathetic to say the least. I thought it would put up a better fight. It was as clean as the day it came off the showroom floor. It was my neighbors quad. He has a cherry pilot also. That was a sweet ride. He bought them new. I can not imagine having the same quad for 15 years but then again they stopped making them.

Back to the races it looks close stock for stock but the rappy wins out. And the mags said it was the slowest of the 3. lol

350x, dont loose too much respect for me. One day come on down to pismo, and we'll have a go on the flats. If you need a place to crash you can even kick it with us at our pad. When you going to try and make it down here?

Oh come on dude! your bike is full drag duty!

My zilla has V-paddles and the stock swingarm! Its a dune machine, with
enough power to have a little fun on the hill. Not a drag racer!

Ill let you know.

Its not a full drag machine. Its stock geometry, double a-arm, runs foxx air shoxx, and runs on gas. Its not a"drag" setup persay like our other honda. Its dunable as well and is fun to dune around also. If you want we dont have to race. We can just kick it at the hill.
