Im grateful for every helpful post that i get, but i keep getting the same suggestions about the Raptor. Quad weight is a very important factor in what quad i get, its like i cant ride at my full potential on the raptor because im just a wee bit light. The power is no problem, i want more...alot more. I can handle the power, just not the quad its self. I dont really care about a comfortable seat, who is sitting comfortably when theyre runnin WAFO through trails, or on a track? I have never been comfortable on a quad, and dont expect to. My first clutched fourwheeler was a R (my dads) so i had to learn how to park so i dont have to backup, and its not often that i had to use it on the rappy.
Count the predator out, because its heavier than the raptor.

The raptor (02+ ) is an excellent quad, if i had to describe it i would say versatile, with the simplest mods it can be a competitor for whatever kind of racing or riding you want to do. For anyone who is thinking of buying a raptor, you wont be disappointed (unless its an 01, or if you are a weightless little **** like me)
Thanks everyone though

 

The 450 should rip with a light guy like you on it. Sounds like a good match to me.

LOL Kawi 700. That would make the rappy feel like a light weight machine. Hmmm... maybe that's what they meant, ride the Kawi for a while then get back on the rappy and it'll feel nimble as heck.

 

After getting to used to the Raptor, and when I rode the 700 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I almost yelled from disbelief, I thought hey, it cant be that big, That thing felt like a titanic on wheels. I got back on the Raptor and it felt like I was riding a feather. Man... LOL
