How do you like the R? I just got one the other day and I know it will be different ride experience but do you still ride both the raptor and R, which do you ride more?

Just trying to determine how much work i put into this thing

 

It means teh shock was installed upside down..

 

I have the predator now and I don't even desire to ride the R anymore. The R is fun but the suspension on the predator is by far a much better than the R. The engine pull and power delivery is almost identicle to the R. It just weighs a lot more. almost by 100 pounds! The R weighs in at like 325 and the predator is 415. The only time it feels heavy is when its in the air.
I will most likely keep my R from now on and my raptor to. The R is easy to get to go realy fast since it is so light. But being light it rides like a 3/4 ton pick up too. You can make the R faster than the raptor with just a few mods, and not hurt the rideabilitly. I suppose it just boils down to what interests you.
I haven't rode my raptor since august when i blew out the trans. its still in a million pieces in my shop. some day i will put it together.
