Default Predator 500 vs → 400ex ←

My buddy is getting a predator 500... He says it will blow my 400ex out of the water..
Never rode a predator, anyone have any ideas about HOW fast is this... Predator.

Oh and my cuz has a Honda XR 200r dirt bike, she thinks she can beat my 400ex.
And if anyone thinks she might have a chance... just shout.. or type..

The Preditor has much more power, 42hp vs the 400ex 34hp. I read a review on one that even beat a stock 660 Raptor let alone a 400ex. It will even hang with a Honda TRX450R.

You will lose a drag to the Pred, not sure about the bike. I also predict you will be riding while your buddy is wrenching several times this year.

The predator is definitely going to be faster than a 400ex. Rode with a group of guy's on a trip last fall that had a variety of quads and the predator and a trx450r were smokin fast compared to many of the others.

Yeah the pred is fast, I had a Raptor 660 and raced a Pred and it pretty much came down to who got the holeshot - pretty close. I don't think the XR will beat the 400EX.
