Default Kfx 700 VS. Raptor 700


I wish I could afford to have one of each


There's a free plug for you bart....
The lowering kit helps alot in the tight corners and helps keep the front end down when drag racing

Consistant yes,but more accurate???? It all depends on the mapping for the injectors. If both are tuned right they should have the same horsepower.

One of the ATV rags just did a test of the Sportsman 700 EFI and carb version and in some aspects the carb was better!

Becausewe are talking sport quads. I like the chain and sprocket system over a Cvt. For this reason I would take a Raptor over the V Force.

I was gonna say the same thing................if I can mod a bike and I dont have to spend the next day screwin with jets than more power to me!!!!!!! Its hard to beat the crisp response of efi. I know carbs can make the same power if tuned correctly but it sure is nice to go ride in the mountains or at sea level and not touch a thing.
