The Raptor handles way better than a 4x4. It soaks up bumps pretty good and lands soft on jumps. The issues a Raptor has with handling is that it's "top heavy" - it wants to come up on 2 wheels in sharp turns. It doesn't "hug" the ground as well as, say a 400 or a 450. It just takes more leaning when going thru fast turns as the other bikes. I ride the **** out of mine and have never tipped it over on two wheels. I would take the 660 any day over any 400.

 

the 660 is a great bike even though its top heavy, I would take mine over any 400 any day. Stay away from the 01's cuz they have tranny problems. Another plus for the 660 is that with a filter and a pipe it will really shine.

 

Raptor 660 all the way. And top heavy? Not really much. I hardly notice. And it's way faster than my Z400.
