I've never felt tippy on mine and I'm a pretty big dude. I love my Raptor. Only thing I don't like about it is the suspension is a little soft. (guess it dosn't help that theres a fat man on it) The suspension will bottom out when riding aggressively through the trails. I've been told that a simple swap to yfz shocks solves that problem. Havn't done that yet. I guess there is a little bit of a higher center of gravity than some other sport quads but those quads also can't handle the trails like the Raptor either. The Raptor was built for the trails and in my opinion is one of the best trail quads on the market in the sport class. If your buying new you should consider the 700 over the 660 for the efi and upgraded suspension.

Are you refering to the Grizzly? After rereading your post, I think I might have misunderstood. I don't know too much about them.

The 700r is night and day better than the 660 in the handling department. I just sold my 660 and got the 700. Best move I ever made.

If you do get the 660...When i first got mine..before i made it into a drag bike..it had front and back lowering kits and wheel spacers all the way around..If you not going to be jumping..and just trail riding it handle very good..with the spacers and lowering kits...

with lowering kits and 3 inch rear wheel spacers, you almost couldn't flip unless you wanted to [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
