No my 05 TLD did not come in[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]. But my buddy that has the 04 Predator, let me and another buddy go out riding, while he had to work. He's feeling bad for me, since I have no ride. We went to this place called Happy Hollow. It has alot of hill climbing, jumps, and drag racing. Here is what I went up agaist. DSX 650, 660 Raptor, 400 Ex, 250 Ex, 250 Z, 250 R. The Raptor won 2 times out of 5. Nothing else beat me. The 2 times the Raptor beat me I stood the Pred straight in the air. I can not say enough about the Pred. It loves trails, hills, and racing. I aslo had a Banshee, and a Z 400 that would not line up with me. They would race everything else. The Raptor is one of my buddies, and we where both bone stock. Everything else had at least a pipe. I can not wait until I get mine. I hope I like mine as much as I like his!!!! I forgot to say, the DS had the X package on it.

 

I've seen that here as well. Some people will not line up with a polaris because they are afraid they will get beat. They sit on the sidelines saying "I'm not gonna even race a polaris" .[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

It took a while to get use to the front brake lever. I did some wild stoppies. I keep forgeting that it was front brake only.

I hear alot its the rider and not the quad. Not this time, it was the Predator. I have alot of fear. I grow up on dirt bikes. I have been riding quads since Jan. of this year. I still have alot to learn.

 

i am surprised the DS lost... the regular DS is supose to be faster than the raptor...
glad you liked it... and i am sure the 05 will be better than that 04...
