ltz400 vs 500 predator
#11
ive had both, and the z/kfx is better. the predator has a very crappy seat that forces you to sit in a hump and the rearend is ALL OVER the place on lose dirt. it is fast and when there is traction handles better, but id still take the 400. dodgehemi, whats your love affair with efi? it isnt THAT much better or even that notieable to me depending on the vehicle anyway

I rode a SP500 efI , unless I was told I could not tell the differance from a carb. They dont have a power advantage by the looks of things,in this 2008 450 motorcross shootout Racer X Canada - motocross and supercross news and features from around Canada the Suzuki is the only efi bike in the group and far from the fastest.
The some of the riders thoughts, but I guess there all wrong also.
Sounds like the carb can make a 08 KX450 move.

Obviously the biggest update to the RM-Z450 is the motor and EFI. Did I notice a big difference? Not really. The bike did fire up easily, and it had a good amount of bottom and mid-range, but it doesn’t have as much overrev as the other 450s.
The Suzuki has a nice bottom end it. It didn’t bog, but it did pop a couple of times. I couldn’t really notice any difference between the EFI and carbureted bikes.
Kudos to Suzuki for being the first of the major manufacturers to introduce EFI on a motocross bike. Unfortunately, in stock form, this bike was a big disappointment for me as I was expecting greater things.
Kawasaki KX450F
Fast, fast, fast!! Did I mention this bike is fast? The new Kawi 450 is the fastest of the bunch.
