Get the raptor especially if your a heavy or tall person, you will love the dimensions on the rap. Just start doing a lot of sit ups because your stomach muscles will get a work out from trying to keep yourself forward.

 

I sold my 400ex and bought a Raptor... DO IT, you won't regret it.

 

Definately go RAPTOR!!

It does feel a little tippy at times especially if you are in some tight mountainous trails. Although it felt like it might go over at times, it never did. Now that I have widened it and lengthened it, it is perfect (for sand). I don't trail ride mine anymore.

One more thing about trail riding the Raptor. The reverse is awesome for trails, but the first thing I recommend is to by-pass the reverse limiter. There will be a time that you will need to back out of a hole or back up a fairly steep trail and if the reverse limiter is still hooked up, GOOD LUCK!

You won't be disappointed.
