i would say stock a zilla would eat a shee. but who gives a shiat about stock. modded nothing will touch a shee. modded the lt500 are not that fast. i would even say now a days the big dog 4 strokes are getting them.

the zilla will beat the shee stock.but if your going to mod a drag bike then I would get the shee.I have beat the 450r,yfz and raptor 660 with my zilla.I havent raced the other big 4-strokes.I hear that the raptor 700 is pretty mean.

With the right gearing, you can make anything have a top speed that would be ridiculously dangerous....so this question is kind of silly, just like all the hundreds of other "which is faster" posts we see every day!

But, if you are talking pure showroom stock...has to be the Zilla.

Exactly.... top speed is ALL about gearing...... I once saw a show where they put an 8 speed tranny into a Honda Civic and made it do 155mph with a stock engine....lol...

Of course it took about 10 minutes for it to reach that speed and any hill would have killed the momentum.....

I rode a 450R with some crazy gearing, set up for some kind of TT racing or circle track or something, the thing probably only had a top speed of about 60mph but it got there in a real hurry...

i dont think he was talking top speed when he asked the question. he is talking who will win like a 300 foot drag race.

Well, that just underscores how silly these "which is faster" posts are. "Fast", means something different to every individual.....

It also depends on where you want to limit "modded", I've seen plenty of videos of DS's with turbo charged Hayabusa motors etc.

While I wouldn't say that a modded 400 polaris would be the fastest, I can tell you that a lot of people were shocked when I wasted them with my 70 hp scrambler. If I had started with one of the lighter 2wd 400's it would have been very tough to top.
