Default 686 Raptor VS YFZ450

I ran a piped one with my 686 on pavement and completely mauled it....I will not mention lengths because the YFZ boys will get their panties in a bunch. Keep in mind I have a +4 swinger in my favor though.

Before I added the 39mm FCRs, and drag pipes they were killin me. Pissed me off enough to buy the carbs, and make some drag pipes. Then I added nitrous for safe measure. I spank them bad now on all motor. I save the nitrous for the quicker Banshees which I still can't compete with a very few all out drag shees. I haven't raced a yzf450 with more than just pipe, filter, jetting, and cam mod that I know of. I don't know how far they can be taken with more mods, but hopefully not too much further. I don't need to spend no more money on this dang bike. LOL They are fast from the get go.

Italian,

I used to live at 59th and Bell too. I lived on Beverly lane. I moved about 9 months ago. Maybe I know you. My Rap was blue at the time.

Any 686 Raptors out there race the 450? I am trying to bench mark my 686.

A fully done 686 raptor should beat a stock YFZ450 pretty bad.
