Depends on what type of riding u do. I personally prefer the Z over a Raptor, more Stable, lighter. Raptor has more *** tho

Both are great machines. The z is probably a little easier to learn on if you are new to the sport quad market. I chose the raptor, but I dont see fault in either one for recreational riding. Get what you feel more comfortable on.

I have both and both bikes will do great on what your looking for.

My suggestion - Ride each one and then decide. Your the one thats going to ride it not us.

But for me, the z400 was the easiest quad to do wheelies on.

they are the same,,,yes

if you are new to the sport,,,,i would get the 400,,,,or maybe a raptor 350,,,or 400ex (honda)

6' 135lbs....uh oh,,,,time to start eating

you will need a good bit of strength to handle a 400 or 660 properly

I think the z feels like a light raptor, with shorter gears. It is a wheelie monster!
