Look guys I didn't start this topic to hear everyone wine about this and that I just wanted to know what you guys thought of the new Z-400. I mean it seems pretty impressive for a 400. You would think with all this competition Yamaha would get off their *** and make a 400 or some type to keep with the 400EX and the Z400. I know that you guys will wine why go lower when they have already built a 660 well for racing purposes. Isn't a 440 limit on ATVs in racing in the pros.

I think a lot of Raptor owners will step down a few cc's for a lighter, better handling quad. I did!! The Z400 is very impressive.

I don't blame zombie for saying that the Raptor is the reigning (sp?)
king,because in the power world 4-stroke stock for stock it IS!

Don't give me that BS &quot;Oh it's only 400ccs against 660ccs&quot;
It's the top sport quad from each manufactuer no matter the ccs.
If this wasn't true,dales and raptors wouldn't be compared.

People always come up with that &quot;Oh its only 400ccs&quot; when they get beat.

Do you see any Raptor owners going around saying &quot;Well it's not fair the dale has fuel injection and its made in America and its color comes in silver&quot;?

No you don't.

Actually stock vs. stock, the Dale is faster than the Raptor. And uh... actually I have heard, &quot;Well, if you make the Raptor fuel injected and put a high compression piston in it, the Raptor will stomp the Dale.&quot; so I think that would be about the same.

Everyone has excuses when they lose (except for me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] hehe, just kidding) but I agree that it is stupid when people will always try to &quot;beat up&quot; the little guy but then starts crying when they get beat buy someone else.

Oh and stock Dale vs. piped Dale is a close race. As much as the outcome of a stock vs. piped race is argued, it must be close. I am one of the one that argues that a piped Raptor is not faster than a stock Dale, but that is only because I have never been beat by one. Once I see one get beat (multiple times) or when I get beat, I'll sing a different song, but that day has yet to come. Maybe 14min. and some of the others will prove me wrong on June 29th.
