It would be the 400ex hands down, but it lacks reverse.

The crown belongs to the Raptor. For 2005 the title will change hands to the Predator 500.

Hey King, I'd hate them too if I paid $7k or more for "the best" quad just to find a "nothing" quad like a 400EX niping at my heals on the trails. He's probably got bite marks on his a$$.................[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

lol, i dont hate em... but they are out dated and you cant deny it... it doesnt have the power that i need to ride like i like too... and for the same money you can get a Z that out performs it in every aspect. i dont mind spending the extra 1000-1500$ to make it to the top of a hill that a EX cant... they were great at their prime, but now there is some much more out there that is better.

but i will say that you wont find more reliable machines than the 300 and 400 ex's, they cant be killed.


and no, i have no bite marks. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I would probably say the z400 or the raptor, but i personally like my 450r on the trails eventhough it doesn't have reverse.
