ya you just can't call any cannondales stock cause there not there expensive to its just not a fair test

 

Sorry Guy's,

I own both the Banshee and the C-dale. My Banshee is faster, but its pretty modified. The C-dale is faster than a stock Banshee and will run very well with minor mods to the Banshee. Its close enough that the rider can make the difference or who gets the better start, etc. The C-dale is faster than a piped raptor, but not by a super amount. Also note: we've been doing quite a bit of testing and many things come into play. One of the false things people think is that the moto map will make the bike win the races and this is not the case at least not dragging in the sand. Our C-dale with the modified speed map does better due to the front end is easier to keep down. When dune riding, the moto map is fun because it wants to wheelie with the fast revs. but makes it more difficult at times. The speed map is more practical for most riders. One other thing is that the C-dale is faster in certain conditions, but when the hills get longer and steeper theres no replacing the Big CC's.

I have fun on all our bikes and they excel in different ways.

 

Um lets see............Cannibal MSRP=7000. Raptor MSRP=6500. thats a 500 buck difference. A Piped Raptor (about 500) may beat a STOCK Cannibal in a straight line, get it on a MX or XC track with equally skilled riders and watch the Cannibal go right past that Piped Raptor.

U people seem to forget about the Cannibal when u consider price...........the best quote for a Raptor I got around here was 6200 and they best for a Cannibal was 6900, once again a 700 dollar difference is not all that big.

 

NO he beat me when he ran in and took the jump while i was staging with 918 but when i made him stop and stage no he did not win any and you did not stay to play with the 440 and she was just as devastating as yours and we must run off the bottle i think you'll cry!!!at what my 686$ 440 can do!!! and no it was not that impressive if you take a stock 400ex and put the the difference in the two into the ex'er you will have a superiour bike that will be around for awhile!!! you may be feeling sparky because you took my little bike but trust me ill take that glow away!!!!!!


And kodiak can you say TIGER SHARK????

 

OH im not talking about the ds im talking about the 440 and yes the 440 is faster and you don't have to be nice we've nver had that kind of relation ship i would think your up too something!! if you were nice!!!LOL

 

I'll agree the Glamis 440 never did stop and stage the race.

As far as the 440ex vs the 465ex\off bottle. It could be the race of the weekend come FSW

 

You all talking about racing a Glamis 440 at Olds? The one from the article was at Patton hill. Rider ability had a lot to do with it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Yeah, everyone knows that dragging up olds requires alot of rider skill as well as quad power.
800

 

I have a stock Raptor and a Moto 440 kicked my butt at Silver Lake in a drag race. A piped Raptor might stay with one but not sure. In the sand I would say they are #2 behind the Banshee. They rev to the moon which is what you need in the sand

 

The way I see it all Cannondale's are stock. Just because they have fancy pieces on them doesn't mean they are not stock, if it comes off the showroom that way then it is stock.
