Default outlaw or predator

im looking to get a new guad and was looking into a honda 450r but after today seeing a stock pred bet a 450r with bolt ons. i think for the price ($700 more then a pred)i wont be happy with a 450r.i want to know how they both handel (because outlaw has irs). what is more reliable. how long before vaules need to be adjusted.also what has more power.

The pred will have a plusher ride, plus the benefit of reverse

It would depend on the terrain they ride on for a lot of people....

IRS lends itself to be superior in a lot of different types of terrain. While a SRA will be better for MX/SX type groomed tracks.

If you ride with a lot of UTES that do woods and XC exploring, or if you ride a lot of rough trails I would go with the Outlaw.

If you ride a lot on groomed trails or MX tracks I would go with the Pred.

i own an 06 outlaw and ride with 05 predators. I race around the track and jump just as high as the predators and love the outlaw. I could only imagine the power of the 525. I would go with the outlaw, you won't be sorry.I'm not sure about the 525 but mine has reverse.

The Outlaw 525 has reverse. I think he is comparing the pred to the 450R.

Sorry, I didn't specify. Yes, I was comparing the pred and the outlaw both to the 450r. The 450 has alot stiffer suspension because it's race oriented. If you(exrider91) are going to ride mostly trails, I think you would be alot happier with one of the polaris's.

were i ride its not very big only about 2-3 acres and thiers 30 quads their most of the time my dads magnum would be the only utes their. everyone mostly drags, do wheelys and jumps. their is a small wooded area thats next to the place i ride and across from the highway and it goes on for a few miles but i dont go that far i like to stay buy other ridier and get to know the people that ride their.theirs no tracks or real trails we just make it as we ride one race was getting a cross a pond thats about 3ft deep and 30 feet long or just a mud hole noone knows how deep itis and we go in and find that its 4-5ft deep and need to pull it out i got my dads polaris magnum stuck in a mud hole 4ft deep.i think i would go with the pred because its more in what i can afford. maybe in the latier future i would get a outlaw 525 but its over $1800 more then the pred.
