Sandgod,
Get a life. All I meant was that the Yamaha quads never live up to the hype. They have never build a great handling quad. The Raptor is nice, better for the dunes and trails than my 400EX but it still doesn't handle as well without some mods. Please go back to the Dale forum and sit there with your pals bemoaning the fact that Cannondale is out of business.

 

and you go back over to honda and cry for a 450.

 

BD,
Enjoying your drum brakes? they seemed to have effected your mood.

 

yo querty, you are always putting down other brands besides honda. we'll it's my turn. Honda may be top on 2 wheelers besides KTM. But in the ATV world, they SUCK. It's as simple as that.

 

and a raptor will eat, swallow, and digest a 400ex. It will smoke it.

 

glad to hear of change in the airbox, and chain adjustment, the yfz looks and sounds kick a$$.

 

I'd love to see the dyno just to check out the power curve on the new quad. Whether the raptor beats it on the top end or not, if it's still pulling at 11k, it will be a kick to ride. Don't think I'd get one, but would love to thrash someone else's...any takers?

 

Richard Simmons must be the president of Honda, because they make a lot of g@y and friendly type of quads(250ex,300ex,400ex). On the other hand, Martha Stewart must be the president of Yamaha because they are way too gangster(blaster,banshee,raptor,yfz450).

 

gilou & rapraider,
So....tell me how many races have Yamaha's won compared to the 400EX? What's that, I can't hear you, you guys are mumbling something about next to zero. Only place a Raptor can smoke a 400EX is in a stright line drag.

 

yo querty, a stock raptor will beat a stock ex400 in any sh*t,if the same level riders are riding. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
