If there is a race it should be 3 out of 5, Id put the money on the raptor though. I know for a fact they are gutless uphills, and with a 150 rider on the raptor its a huge advantage.. not like it needs it. Is there going to be video or pics of this race?? We would all need proof if the predaturd wins, because stock vs. stock on a pred and z400, the pred barley takes it. (I have a video of it if you dont believe)

 

Bet on the Raptor if the rider's ability are the same. Then it gets down to things like are both bikes jetted correctly and tuning. But mod for mod with ability the same the Raptor should have the advantage.

 

i think with the stock gearing on both the raptor would win thru 3rd gear but after that i think the predator would start to come on strong, and overtake the raptor. oh and if it is on pavement i would go predator all the way i don't think the front would stay down on the raptor.

 

i'd bet on the ds650, j/k, i'd go with the raptor i think, but the predator is definitely a nice machine so it could win[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Raptor for sure...

 

i would go with the predator the best mod you could do to the pred is trash the junk carb and you say he has a edelbrock

 

With the few mods listed for the Pred, carb and pipe, they are top of the line. There's probably other work done.

Pred by 2 lenghts.

 

i'd put my money on the raptor.

 

The Predator has no other mods besides the ones listed, nothing internal. I know for a fact because he is a close friend.

I think i might go with the raptor, but the drag isnt until next wednesday, so ive got time to change my mind...

Also, check this out... the owners of both machines bets with eachother? They are each duct taping a piece of white bread under their rear fenders [and hope it stays] and the loser has to eat the winner's roost SANDWICH baby!! lol, this will be great...

 

well Id go wit the predator. if its got the mods u say it does. it will beat that rappy on flat ground but if its a hillshoot id have to say the rappy but who knows. only time will tell. hey "badnblue" let us know how it goes and if the person really ate the peice of bread [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
