Raptor 660 is fast but is geared so stuiped it has a really short first gear and then second is very high if you don't have feilds where you caqn open it up it isn't for you. If you are doing trail riding like in the woods get somthing with more accel., like a Z400 or a 450 or 400ex.

It is a waste to mod out a blaster. They aren't fast and there is alot of money need to make it hafe as good as a stock z400 or a 450 yzf or honda. They are just ment for trail riding not sport or racing!

i don't think that is true, it is really not that expensive to mod blasters. but on another note, don't get a raptor. the z400 is a wicked bike and i have driven one many times slightly modded with a jet kit,full exhaust,cams,plasma ignition. that is one fast machine, now it is a 440 big bored z. that same guy also has a honda 300ex which you may oughta go check out, he had a cobra exhaust and a jet kit and it would run pretty strong. now he got another bike and it is a yfz450 and i have not ridden it yet but i hear it beats our other friends raptor. you can't keep the raptors front wheels on the ground really, that is why i don't think you will like it.
