we went to a drag last night. 57 quads, evweything TrX's, YFZ's, Raptor's, you name it it was there. Out of all those bikes no one was runnin stock. In the final race all that was left was two '04 Predators so dont run your mouth till you have seen it.
Doesnt even make sense considering this is a thread about stock vs. stock and the fact that two modded preds were left standing dont mean crap..considering the preds could of had 2k of mods in it vs. a slip on piped raptor...soo im sticking to the fact that a raptor beats a pred and the yzf beats both
So when a Z has a TON of mods done to it and compared to a pred its all fair, but when I pred has a few mods to it, its completely unfair all of a sudden? You guys crack me up....Hozed I think we have two little teenaged kids that got Raptors thinking they'd be the biggest baddest on the block then had their hat handed to them and now their mad. Whats wrong guys? Gotta come on here and dog something just to feel better about yourself?

Theres NO WAY a Z400 is gonna beat a pred unless you start throwing thousands at it. I haven't lost to one yet. And you know for all the difficulty that ya'll say you have with wheeling a Pred....Interesting.....I've never had any problems. Does it slide alittle too easy around corners? Yes, but go get yourself something other than the useless RazrPR's on there and it hooks up great.

As for Yfz's I've won against them and I've lost against them.... I'll give it to them. They're a great quad, but I wouldn't say that they completely stomp a Predator. With equal mods I've never been embarassed, just traded wins a few times.

Theres one of two things going on w/ you two kids. Your either just looking to get a rise out of someone or your bitter that you actually lost to our Polaris'. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Either way you two are just lame and need to bash on peoples stuff to make you feel better about yourselves.... Grow up guys, get a life.

Sorry MURDR. I wasn't trying to dog the Z. Or ANY of the other quads for that reason. I think ALL of them are good rides. What I am ******* is all the little immature kids(and adults that ACT like kids) on here that have an inferiority complex, and feel the need to completely trash talk anything that they don't personally own just to make themselves feel better about theirselves..... I just don't understand...... But then again I don't have to knock other peoples stuff just to feel better about mine, so I guess I never will.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] Your "experiences" must have been quite a bit different than mine..... I've owned a Raptor, a Predator, and a Z400. As well as ridden a several Yfz's. I personally find ALL your comments a little extreme and biased, but hey you have your right to your opinion.....as stretched and false as they maybe they're still your right to have.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

But I also guess then that "my" response could be that I hate the Raptor on cornering for its tippy nature and high center of gravity. I also hate the Raptor for its short wheel-base and difficulty in launching from a stand still with out it clawing for the sky everytime you drop the clutch. And I feel that the Raptor as well is a heavy "pig" as you put it, in the air. Since the Raptor does weigh in at around 398lbs that would put it in the same catagory as the 412lbs pig of a Predator, right? Or is that "completely" different. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Oh the Raptor must have worthless suspension as well since the aftermarket Fox shocks that come standard on the Predator are only "decent" that would put standard run of the mill factory showa's down there around horse crap right?








No real Raptors were hurt in the making of this response and were only used for the sake of example. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
