hi all can any one tell me which one is better in the acceleration and the top speed and which one has the best handling and are they both worth the money that they cost .


P.S : i have talked to an engnier in atv's and ask him what is his opinion of the predator he sayed that polaris has a lot of problems and its not good and compared to the cannondale he told me to pick the cannondale is much better than the predator .
but i like the predator because of its color and the plastice .

 

That's one man's opinion, but I would have agree. There, now you have 2 opinions.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

That so called engineer has no idea what he is talking about, the predator has very little problems if any.

 

I road a Preator today and to be honest it would be a good race.I think my speed with moto map and hmf slip on pulled harder on the bottom and the polaras may have the edge on the top.The one I rode had the spark arester out.I only got to ride it up and down the street so cant say much about the handling.I liked there rims better but the upper a-arms looked weak.They look like the old lt250 a-arms.They were as thick as the tie rods.Over all it looks to be a good bike.AND polaris has the b@ll$ to build a real high performance machine.I will probley get blasted for this post but what the he!! I think it will beat a piped raptor.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

Yes, the "plastice" is nice, I can see why that's your most important criteria. I think the predator also comes with a free dictionary. Might come in handy!

If you're really in Kuwait as your profile says, I think your biggest concern is which quad comes in camouflage and has a bullet proof fairing. I think your Iraqi neighbors would definitely frown on the LE Cannibal with it's patriotic motif!

 

LMAO @ CaliforniaCan

 

I don't know much about plastice but I know you better not make any typing errors around here or someone just might make a complete judgment about you for it.

 

I own a Cannondale, it's a very nice bike and Im completely happy with it, after hours of riding I still get that **** eatin grin when I hit the throttle. It's screamingfast out of the hole.

I have not ridden a Predator yet, I hear they are very hard pullers on the top end and that kind of makes up for their weaker bottom end. That's stock though.

In the sand I heard they were pretty evenly matched, this from a review on another website. I imagine that on dirt the cannondale would quickly throw a few bike lengths of lead out there in front of the predator due to it's acceleration. If it was a long race, the predator might be a problem.

THis is stock, and who knows what a good pipe and some mods will do to the predator.

I agree, the Platice is very nice on the predator, very nice lines. The cannondale is very unique and I like it as much, if not more than the Predator.

Gotta be an X factor in appeal for having the only one on my block.

 

They are both great machines,go for a test-ride, and see which one fits you best.
