Did you guys look at the new dirtwheels yet? When you do it looks like the Raptor will have met its competition. Their sayin that the Z400 will be able to give the Cannondale Cannibal a run for its money. How do you think the Raptor will fair?

There is susposed to be a couple there for the ASDA Heartland Nationals at Atoka, OK.

Never knew that yamaha riders were @ssholes. So how many other people do you do this to. I asked a damn question and people jump down your throat over it. This wasnt meant to start a flame but to state something that i didnt know and that I THOUGHT OTHER PEOPLE DIDNT KNOW. So like i said if you DONT LIKE THIS POST DONT REPLY. IM GONNA BE HARSH AND SAY IF YOU DONT LIKE IT SHUT THE HELL UP!!!

King Raptor,
I believe he was simpy re-stating what Dirtwheels had said in the article, not giving his opinion as to what was faster. Why jump on him like that? It sure seems like you are touchy when it comes to even a mention of something beating even a stock Raptor. You of all people should know its BS, I mean look how yours runs! You will never be able to tell people how fast the Raptor is, but you have been able to prove to people how fast the Raptor can be. Let him ask the questions,

RoostKing...

Kingraptor,
I see a lot of your posts and respect what you usually have to say, however, this is kinda out of line, don't ya think? There is something new out. Be excited, not defensive. The post in Suzi stated that at the END of a 200yrd race the stock Raptor had it by 3-4 lengths and it hung with it 'till 3rd gear. For a 260cc (not exact, I know)disadvantage, yeah, I think that says a lot for the Z. Fully modded, will the Z be be able to beat the Raptor? No, I doubt it. I bet it'll still be a damn fun ride though! But, where most ride, high horsepower and high top speed mean nothing anyway, handling is most important. So, whatever works for you is the way to go. I also don't believe he is a "knucklehead" for riding a 300EX. I can't wait to hear what I am since I ride a Lakota. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
