What will happen to the Raptor when the FX400 comes out this fall. If Cannondale's claims are true this new ATV will be HOT!!!

What do you think will happen.

Yes it sure does, but, the Raptor will have overall more power.

If they follow the pattern of introduction as they set with their MX bike, we won't know for another 2 years! FUMBLE!

the cannondale seems to be made for motorcross, in that sense it will be above and beyond as an out of crate MX racer. but i feel they will be close speed wise. still faster than DS and 400ex in drag races and top end, just as the raptor will be also.

I was wondering how much is the cannondale going to be compared to the raptor, how many gears does it have, how fast is it going to go with all that HP!!!

The FX400 is going to be tough to beat. The Cannondale is a 4 stroke with fuel injection.
