it doesn't appear that you are very smart either......comparing 2 smokes to thumpers.......

Get these Sparks 505's on over to Okla. Sandfest, I'm ready to test 'um out with my XR650 Warrior
xr650warrior,

You sound like you think your bike is Gods gift to drag racing. Well I know a LOT of Sparks bikes that could lay the whoopin on your 650, never underextimate Sparks. By the way for all of you Raptor huggers that think 400 class bikes cant contend with the big bad raptor you obvously dont know $hit about quads..

Well, im sure, if you know Jeff, i think he was being a bit modest, Tony and him were arguing about who won with that CRF and Jeffs bike just last weekend....i do believe he barely got pulled on a few times by 450, but not by much... this info came from Jeff and Punisher[Tony].
Uumm. Mario. Not to start anything but. If Tony was racing the same CRF450+ that was at Pismo over Labor day weekend. Tony and his 720 would not have been in sight at the finish. I can occasionaly beat (barely) Tony's 720 with Tony on it, if I get a good start. This particular CRF450 equipped 400ex framed quad was very fast. Possibly the fastes 4 stroke I've ever seen.

werd up wsh. Its a fast 4-stroke. Most of these thumpers cant compare to this little 450.

Bigscary...why is a 2-stroke different from a 4-stroke...i thought there is no replacement for displacement? oh wait, i guess it doesnt count when racing faster, more powerful machines.

A 420 2 smoke would equate to a 840 4 stroke, give or take. Do I need to explain how this works out?

Dave, they were arguing about Jeffs bike, Jeff was saying it did pull on his 830 bike, AND TONY was saying it DID not beat JEFFS 830, if you think i was talking about Tonys bike running the CRF450, i must have definiatly came off wrong, or you took it the wrong way, NO, HEELLL NO!!!!!!!
MY 720 or Tonys 720 and most other bikes at Pismo does not stand a chance with that 450...[ THEY WERE ARGUING SPECIFICALLY ABOUT JEFFS 830, Tonys bike never was a question against crf450...they were definiatly talking about the 830...but we need to meet up at Dumont soon, i have something in the works with my original DS, we can test the bikes against each other and get them all dialed in..bring goggles[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

My bad Mario. I thought they were arguing which one beat the 450. I've never met or seen Jeff run. There might be 1 more trip to pismo before Dumont season starts. I'll put on extra lenses on my goggles when racing you your quads are faster than Tonys and I usualy lose to Tonys so extra thick lenses will be in order.

But according to yamaha660r "there is no replacement for displacement" I guess this is why my little 265 can outrun a 660 also. Some of you raptor owners need to get over yourselves and realize that a properly set up 400 will smoke your 660.
