I am about to buy the new Predator, and all I have heard is good reviews... but before I buy it, I wanna know what people have found wrong with it, just to get all the crap i'm lookin for in one post. So what ARE the glitches known to exist on the Predator???

 

As you read in my post. The tires are not so well in MA.this time of year . Other than that I cant say anything bad about the Predator. Great choice, buy one and you will like it. Just my 2 cents

 

Anything wrong with the shifting, or front end coming up?

 

The Razor's really suck in snow. Even putting studs in my tires, they just spin. My brothers Z-400 has studs on his stock tires, and he got the hole shot every time. I would just spin. The only time that I could beat him in a drag, is we had to be on a packed dirt rd, then I was able to feel the power of the Predator. But if there was any snow at all on the trail, he was gone and I was spinning. So if you want a Predator and want to ride in the snow, plan on getting new tires, or leave it parked.

 

Yah there are bad things about the Preditor. 1 is I DONT HAVE ONE, 2 is I rode one and the whole bike is one bad mother and 3 it keeps me up at night thinking about how bad it is!!!!! Other than that I have heard nothing bad mechanically about it. Just some lose bolts,clamps, and the way the seat is set up.

 

I have not had a problem with shifting since the first couple of hours of use.The more I ride the better it feels. As for wheelies, the front end stays down unless you want to send it up. Some critics say it wont wheelie but they dont own one.

 

The only thing wrong with mine is I don't get to ride it enough!

 

How about rider fatigue...does it throw you around alot , is the clutch/throttle stiff?

 

I rode one for about an hour. It handles like no other. I was not thrown around and it was comfortable. You do need to get used to how the seat and gas tank sits.
