wut is the top speed of the preadator v.s. the raptor because im thinkin of sellin my raptor for a preadator. all i need 2 no now is the speed cus i no the predator has better handling then the raptor.

 

look on the polaris page

 

do not and i stress this do not get rid of a rappy for a predator all you need is a different axle for better handling. stock on stock the raptor is faster. the hp is higher on the predator but it doesn't get 'em to the ground. i saw a predator that was piped, ported, bored, and carbed and it was pumping around 50 hp not very good. if you want a drag bike keep the rappy and mod it up a little i recommend the ct sonic pipe if you don't already have a pipe.

 

RAPTORS RULE!!!!!!!!!!

 

As far as power goes, they are pretty much the same stock. I just bought a pred and my buddy bought a new 03 raptor. We both love our machines since we used to own scramblers. But I'm sure you have done some of your homework. The pred my have a slightly higher top end, but cripes, if it goes 75 or how ever fast is claimed, you are not going to stay there long in many types of terrain except drag racing, and in that case you're gonna be changing things all around anyhow. Acceleration between the two is identical, about the only reason I beat his raptor is because as you know the raptor likes to shine it's headlights at the tree tops through the first couple of gears if you know what I mean. Both will wheelie well, but it's easier to do with the raptor. But he rode my pred and is already looking for some wheel spacers because he loved the width and handling of the pred, but he's partial to his reverse as well. We are both really happy and I'm sure you will be happy whether you keep yours or get the pred. If only it was a perfect world and we could all have one of each!!!
