i have seen a slip on for the raptor 250 but i dont beleive a raptor 350 is not going to do no 75...the ltr450 only does about 70 stock due to tire size but it has about 80cc displacement over it to...

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>Originally posted by: juttin_15

telling you i was pulled over for doing 75 in a 55 zone, the cop said 76 my tach said 75</end quote></div>

Sorry man, I don't want to say you're full of ****, but... there's no way a stock raptor 350 can do that. Do you know for a fact that it wasn't bored and stroked or something? Because it's just a known fact that raptor 350's don't go that fast, do some research and find anything that indicates otherwise. If a stock raptor 350 can do 75 I think we'd see them selling a lot more than they do.

Aside from the fact that they don't have the power or gearing to hit 75, I wouldn't want to be the one riding it when it hit that speed with stock suspension either, the sum'bitches are just too tall tippy and unstable.

i dont even see how a 300ex will do 65 when a 400ex may do 65 but the 300 does have 22s on the rear

nah, the 300 only does about 55, less depending on the rider size.

Yeah, most riders won't touch top speed very often. I do myself, I have a bunch of fields and power lines to ride around here, so I hit my top speed or close to it just about every time I get the quad out.

i see what your sayin and every time i get somewhere safe to open it up (like racing against cars on the side of the road) i take it but ive never opened it up in trails or the track.....except dunes but your quad aint gunna go its full potential in the sand..............my main point is id rather have power and handling the top speed and people brag about how fast their factory ride is WHO CARES?!!!

now that weve got way off the topic the raptor is the best choice for you
