Default predator? sportsman

just bought my son a 05 predator 500 limited edition. Bought myself a 05 sportsman 400. Some of my son's friends say he should have gotten a honda 400ex because they are faster than his 500. How can this be 500cc vs 400 cc ? Can this be correct ? The salesman said the predator would blow the honda 400ex away . Was he just telling me that to make a sale ?

thanks for the replys

No, he wasn't. Especially if you have the Limited with the Pure Polaris/White Brothers pipe on it. If your son has any riding skills at all, he will beat most other stock bikes.

Can I be your son? I would make you proud and show you how bad the predator will smoke the 400ex in every type of terrain! I wont even hit a tree a 60 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
