Where did you learn to add $5800? $5300 + $500 = $5800

the cannibal is harder to wheelie at slow speeds than my warrior. I've been trying to learn to control the front end with the back brake instead of the throttle, as the compression braking will bring the nose down off throttle. I think the balance point is more narrow too. The engine won't die though. My 12 year old can bicycle it pretty well.

I get confused when the numbers get so large!! Actually I thought you meant the $5800 was for the 400EX and $5300 for the Cannibal, still, very good price!

Its a 2002 Cannibal Demo with less than 20 hours. It does have the Ohlins suspension and has Tag Bars, Graydon Nerf Bars, and HMF Exhaust.

Whoa, I've been waiting to reply to this thread!!

Cannondales are the wheelie king! The 1st time I rode YoDaddy's, I took it for a 15 minute spin, then pursued the infamous 300 yard wheelie. The very 1st time I pulled the tires off the ground, I rode it until I ran out of room. The thing is AWESOME. The fuel injection will NOT cutout like a carb. When it snowed here, we took the quads to a go kart track and played around for an hour or so. My Banshee, YoDaddy's 440, and another friend had worn the snow out, so it was all wet. I was going around a corner, sliding, and I thought I had the slide done, so I pulled on the Cannibal's bars, only to find out that doing a donut, wheelying, and white smoking Holeshots is a VERY scary ordeal.

Cool It seems I'll be very happy with the Cannondale. The Dealer said I can choose what map I want. It looks as though the Blaze map may be the best choice as it has the HMF pipe................any comments on mapping?
