I was wondering if my new Ozark 250 can keep up with my buddies Rancher 350 in a drag race? Has anyone raced the two? What was the outcome? Thanks!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Is the Rancher a 2 or 4 wheel drive?

 

It's a 2wd Rancher. The Ozark is a pretty quick bike so i bet it would be a good race.

 

The 2X4 Rancher is no slouch!!

 

The 2x4 Rancher would probably have a couple more mph's on the top speed.

 

My Ozark runs 53 thats about the same as the Rancher.

 

I thought the top speed of the Ozark was around 48/49 mph. I think the Rancher would win by a couple mph. The Rancher has 33cc's more than the Ozark. But it does weigh around 95lbs. more than the Ozark. I still think the Rancher would be a little faster.

 

The Ozark goes 53 i am positive. I think that the Ozark could beat the Rancher up to top speed but the Rancher may have more top end but I dont know I was just wondering.

 

In a short drag it would be close but in a longer drag the rancher would win. The only way your Ozark can go 53 mph, is if you have a faster then normal Ozark. A stock Ozark will go around 48 mph, just like coyotechaser said.

 

FWIW - Suzuki speedo's traditionally read a few MPH faster than actual speed.

I'd lean towards the Ozark being the first off the line but I'd also bet that the Rancher would reel it in and have just a few more mph's on the top end.
