I know somebody who will be getting a Raptor 700 very soon so I was wondering how this would compare to my 450r. Iv got a full sparks system on the way also.

Just wondering.. Post comments, opinions etc..

EDIT: Forgot to say he weighs around 230

with your 13 tooth front sprocket and your pipe you should be able to pull the holeshot for a while but i dont know about speed that thing seems mean as hell:devil:

personaly i think the raptor would blow your doors off, maybe not off the line but would start walking away by far. IMO

450r :).

Raptor is faster on top end, and you can lug it around in any gear all day long, but 450 will out accelerate so much it, it would take a mile for it to catch up on top end.

i dont know about that but anyway

im not really a big fan of this yamaha vs honda thing and ive never really liked a raptor but i do think the 700 is gonna rip.especially with that fuel injection,ur all judging it by the ol 660.the 700 is gonna be a whole new quad and i think it'll outrun any quad from start to finish.jus my .02
but they did say in dirtwheels it could easilly do 100 wit a couple of lrd mods on the flat dunes.

I believe in the Raptor forum i read someone rode the 700 and compared it to something, cant remember exactly, go check it out.

That was a 727 raptor, based from the 660 raptor, not the 700.

I really do think its going to be a close race, but top end will on his part will be higher of course because of the bigger engine.

im better on the hills, randy knows all about that:p

as far as the race randy, i think youll take him till about 4th gear then he might start to catch up, but itll have to be a long drag. only time will tell.
