Raptor by far. Way nicer handling, shifting, jumping, and they have more power and are faster. Loof at the motor siz difference. that isn't even a question!

warrior i think your just tying to start an arguement so i will argue with you. i have raced plenty of raptors and some are close races and some of them i so far ahead of the raptor its not even funny. i do have a buddy with a raptor and he has got it tuned real good its who ever gets off the line first when i race him. hes 155lb im 195lb. to replie to the thread both are good bikes you get a little more with the predator but the raptor has reverse and the ride is a little softer but for handling the predator by far. the best thing is to do is go ride them both and make up your own mind thats what i did and glad i went with the predator. iwannatrx450r i think maybe your trying to start some crap.

thers no dout the raptor has more torqe than the predator. i really got to keep the revs up my predator to beat a stock raptor. im think i would like to have both quads in my garage. i bought a vforce to and wish that i would have got the raptor. raptors can outrun my vforce the V will get the raptors off the line but it dont take long for the raptor to pull on the V.

no the raptor does not shift better than the pred, from what i understand both there gearboxes suck. but the pred has the rappy in a drag, the pred climbs better, but the raptor has better handling and there both good st jumping. hey WARRIOR92 just curiose bot tryin to be an a-hole but why is you forum name warroir92 and you have a banshee icon if you have a tb250, i know my name is lightman02 and have a scrambler icon and i own a z400 but this is my freinds forum name.

I own a stock Predator, and one of my friends has a rappy with yoshimura full exaust, K&N, and jeted. I just kept on leaving him. So from my experience the pred has better acc. and top end. Im not downing the raptor, I think it is an awesome quad and it does ride better than the pred. Maybe this will help you find out what you want. Just ride them both and see what feels better to you.
