Honestly, who wins will come down to rider weight, and riding ability. They are so close it is not funny.

For a stock bike it screamed. After a powercommander is screams more! Only downfall I have is the black scratches, but I bought it to ride, not look at. They are great bikes, you will be happy with it!

Yup but you can tune a stock bike with it with the pre-programmed settings on it.

I like to say I have a brand new 700se, stock my two good friends have 450's jetted and air lid off and a banshee 350 all pretty new. out of about 7 races I lost 2 and they were caused buy me not shifting correctly. The other 5 times I smocked all them buy at least 5 full lengths. And I have video prove of this. they both have been ridding since childhood and so have I . and we all weigth around 200lb.

I would like to see that video proof, because every 700 i race, stands no chance since i have my airbox lid and baffle out...I beat them by a good 3-4 bikes, a stock 700 beating a yfz with airbox lid off baffle out, and jetted properly just isnt happening, unless the 450 is on ice and youre on pavement.

I've seen more 3-mod Raptor 700's at the hills (dunes) lately. . . They've had no problems beating the YFZ's with similar mods. . . even within our riding group. One of the guys brought his Wife's 700 up for a day-trip because he didn't want to ride his YFZ all day and lose at the hill.

I don't know about the flats but, on the Sand Dune Drag Hills, the Raptor is faster than the 450.
