Same way the 450's are faster thean the 660. They rev faster.
DW is anti Polaris if anything, along with most rags.

 

I suppose I'm gonna hear a whole bunch of shiz about this, but the only official time I've seen posted on the nicholas cycle pred wasn't in the 4 sec range.. But, yes bulldogz, his website says 4 sec range, not 4 sec flat.

 

I'm pretty much over arguing these topics......but just for fun, I'll add in a few interesting points. First off, let me start with saying that I know rappys are fast, especially when modded........and that as of now they are faster than the pred modded. But I would also like to say that Doug is on his way up, the man never quits working. He just told me yesterday, that he has more mods for the stock carb.........I mean come oin.....what other builders actually care about the stock carb?? He continues to work on his big carbs(lectron), but also works on the stock carb for those of us who can't afford the big boy stuff. Also, I'm not sure he has ran that 627cc yet......I'm sure it will be pretty fast at the strip. Another point to argue......Rath ran Doug's 627cc, and got first with it. I think he won down in the Dominican Republic with it too, and he won there too. They in fact took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd there.

 

I Agree Brad this is getting old quick! The only thing I can say is find out where Doug is running and line them up!!

 

You guys are the ones who make this old. Repeatedly. In the yamaha forum. Over and Over.. As far as stock carb mods, might want to check into craycraft. They have been doing this on the yamis for about a year now. For the pred, ESuperbike shop was doing them within 4 months of the predator coming out. Why would I line up with doug? I'm not running off about how fast I am.. Neither is Doug for that matter. It's you guys speaking for doug. Seeing that Doug is the up and comer, I would think he would go to the big races with other established builders personal bikes. As of so far, he has not. In no way shape or form, am I saying he's slow. However, the only official time I've seen posted was not a 4 sec run. Just stating facts there. If you want to come into a yamaha forum and put down the bikes, expect someone to say something back.

 

And yet its the same people in every thread on both sides. You guys must not be too sick of this bull.

 

Maddog, you also seem to make an appearance quite often. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Yeah, its gotten old. Now I just show up and insult everyone together, Pred and Rap owners alike.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I don't speak for Doug or try to, All we said is he is the best when it comes to the Predator. How do you know if he don't run the big races? I guess you go to them all. Well anyway I guess it's ok to come to the Polaris forum and run your mouth, we all know you do. I think you are on the Polaris forum more than I am, and thats hard to do. I don't think anywhere on this thread I bad mouthed the Raptor.

So i'm happy to say i'm done with this thread and you also. I'm sure that puts a smile on your face also.
