hiya, in a drag, with equad weight riders and equal skill, which quad is quickest. a stock raptor vs a piped and jetted z400 [full pipe or slip on] and jetted with k & N air filter? the drag shouldn't be long enough for the raptor to reach full speed. so i suupose what i want to know is which will be fastest accelerating? thanks

 

My buddy has a '03 Z400 with a full HMF exhaust system, rejetted, K&N air filter and I have a '02 Raptor with a 12 tooth front sprocket (13 is stock). He was a half a length ahead of me until I hit 3rd gear then I took off (nothing special, but I was pulling away at a decent pace). This was my 2nd weekend with the machine if that makes a difference. I outwieghed him by about 10lbs at the time.

I just talked to him and he said he was able to beat quite a few 660s until they reeled him in after a while in 5th gear. From my experience against him I would say it's really close, but from what he says, his is a good bit quicker initially. My Raptor that is stock (except the sprocket) is a TON quieter than his was, if that makes a difference for where you ride...I know it does for me.

 

it also depends on the driver skills.If both are equal drivers,I think the 660 will win. The raptor hooks up so good its scary[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
So I vote for raptor!
