UMMM, yes you did get a couple. I was still new to the machine and had to get used to the front coming up.

I couldn't believe he lined up 3 times with bald tires. The Raptors were no contest on the hole-shot.

Reference the top speed fur the yfz450, I had mine cloked at 63 m.p.h. on a certified radar unit. This was on asphault and totally stock at the time. I just shifted from 4th to 5th when I ran out of road. So 63, with all of 5th gear to go out of the box.

i think he means that is the hp the engine is producing. actual hp at the wheel is always less than what the engine produces because some power is lost through the gears and the chain/shaft. ie, a ds 650 has about 52 hp at the motor, but around 45 at the wheel because of the power loss. hope this helps.

the rappy and the yfz have around the same hp at the wheels, but in stock form, the raptor is very restricted. if you pipe, jet and put an airfilter on both, the rappy will have more horse than a yfz
