the preditor is an excellent bike, in dirt wheels mag it held its own agaist a Raptor 660 in speed, ride, and most everything, though they do say that the TLD predator does not addapt to performance mods as well as other bikes do. If you do get a Predator i deffenetly recomend getting the TLD as for its nitrogen Fox Shox suspention that is a very very nice touch, ontop of that, very comfey, i still think that its a rough bike though, but that YZF450 will snap your back in half on the trail...

hey guys AWESOME INFO BTW! thanks a TON! you have no idea how i have been waiting on this info! well actually its only been a couple days but it seems WAY LONGER! LOL.... im glad a couple of you got a laugh out of my name.... but there IS a reason behind it... ive had this name since i first got an e-mail account way back in the day and it just kinda stayed with me. i used to be die hard honda fan.. but that was a LONG time ago.. i still love their bikes.. but i am learning that each manufacturer has their own strengths/weaknesses.... so i am not brand loyal anymore. alright so whats this deal about the TLD pred not takin mods? would it be better to get the standard pred and just change the gearing in it to make it accell faster? do the fox shox ONLY come on the TLD? i probably will buy one of these this summer.. so my guess is i am gonna get a 04-05... but i would REALLY like to find a left over one or one that was bought and never ran.... i wont have the money to drop cash on this thing so i will have to finance it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] should i spend the extra dough and get the 05? i dont know if the shox will make that much of a big deal to me or not.. i only weigh 125lb.. and im only 5'8" tall.. so is the better shox a big deal with my weight and stuff? or do the shox actually change the handling that much that its worth it? i really appreciate the info guys.. keep up da good work! if i win the lottery i will buy you all a new quad! LOL well... maybe not.. but i would like to! LOL later guys!

not sure what performance mods they're talking about that thay won't take. we've piped em, put in filters, carb work, and so on. as far as shock go, the handling on tld is somewhat more adjustable. this may help you as a lighter rider. also, alot of ppl seem to say that the std is better in woods because of different ratio trans. im the opposite i like the close ratios on the tld. can get it through the gears faster and is always on the power in tight sections. yea you may have to shift a little more, but imo thats a small sacrafice of the other advantages.

I could take my Sportsman 500 Ho and run all over a Banshee lol [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I might not out run it ,but I could go head to head and win. My friend had a Banshee he would stay clear from me,He knew I would run over him LOL.

Too many kids with big egos on this site.......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
The pred is a great trail quad. And the 05' TLD is gonna be killer. This aint your old school polaris boys. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] The predator is one bad machine.
