I'd rather live in your backyard. I'd give up Dumont and Glamis for LS Utah and St Anthonys any day. I'd miss Dumont a little but living somewhere in between those two Dunes would be fine by me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

4. Z400= smooth and fun but low on power
5. predator=fast yugo, bring a rope and a bucket to put the chesey parts in as they fall off
6. V-force= Not enough seat time to tell but i may put one in the stable
7. DS= sherman tank will run over anything in its way

Hozed- thank god we are 3 years past the 1st year raptors. Been there and done that at least 2 times out of my pocket.
I would rank the predator above the cannonfails. Polaris COULD have a VERY nice quad but......

I'm 6'2" and I wouldn't ride anything but my DS!
I haven't been to Oregon but, I have ridden with a few that have. You don't have to worry about the kinds of hills that you are seeing in the video. (Is this correct?)
If you want to dune all day the DS and Raptor are the best I have ridden. I have no seat time on the Predator. I hear the YFZ's are real quick in Oregon. You won't be as comfortable on it as you will on the DS or the Raptor though.
If I was into track and trail racing I would get the Yfz. If I weighed 150 and was 5'8 I would get the YFZ but. . . I'm not!
IF 14'a list is in order, I would have to say he isn't being honest. I must assume the list isn't in any particular order.
How is the sand where you ride? Is it smooth or rough? The rougher it is the more you will be happy with the DS or the Raptor.
Go sit on them and tell us which one feels more comfortable.

can't go wrong with a Raptor. I'm 6' and 240ish, it fits me perfectly. I felt cramped on the YFZ.
the YFZ is a race bike for MX. Seems like you want to trail ride in woods and sand, IMHO, a Rappy is better [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
then again, I'm biased. I would love to have a YFZ as a third bike!
