I honestly think they are very close. Too close to make any real difference.

WyoDuner,
Your right. I have only seen one DS650 and it was so much wider than my Raptor. The DS650 would have problems on the trails that we have made on our property. The DS would either be hitting the sides of the trees or knocking them down. I did like that big chain the DS had on it. Yamaha should have put a bigger chain on the Raptor.

It's close, I've raced 4 or 5 Raptors & have yet to lose. The longer it seems the race the farther ahead the DS is. Rider has a lot to do with it. The Raptor is a good quad I guess (barring all the problems) I just think Yamaha over hyped it.

I'd like to see a race between the DS and the Raptor both with the Big Gun exhaust systems! That would be even. No other mods, just the same race series pipes. I beat a Banshee with Toomeys and head mods and also another Banshee with toomeys and jet kit. That Big Gun rocks! I have yet to race a DS or ride with one at that.

This is an endless question that will go on forever. So you won't ever get an all-in-favor vote. I don't know, because I've never met with a DS650, but if you would of ask which bike has won every shoot-out, then you'll get the unanimous vote of the best of the best... Raptor 660R!!! ATVSport, ATVAction, & Dirtwheels!!!! 3 out of 3... perfect score!!!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
