Raptor 350 vs honda 300ex

[rebdc69]

just kinda wondering about wat everyone thinks about the two quads.
and which u think would be better to race i no there not 450s so i dont want anyone who says well go wit a 450 cause i dont have that much money.

ive had both and i would take the 300 over the 350 any day. it so much more reliable and much easier to throw around. the 350 is basically a utility motor in a sporty frame. the honda will take the beating and has much simpler designs (less breaking and easier to work on)

i have a magazine not sure what, but there was a shoot out and the 300 ex was best in its class and the preffered it for everything over the 350

ya alot of my friends have 300ex an they are nice.
but i think i like the raptor more. it has alot more power to it .
like bottom end an all

i beg to differ but everyone is entitled to their own oppinion. (i hate when people get in heated arguments on this site) the 300ex's pipe is very restrictive. a cheap pipe on a 300ex improves the whole powerband a ton. maybe the 300's didnt have pipes? i want to but a street bike motor or sometin to slap in mine. nice little welding project =]

ya one thing real nice bout a 300ex is the wheelies
it will do them so nicely.

I would take the 300. My buddy had a 350 that was piped (GYTR) and two teeth bigger in the front sprocket and I killed him until about 55 when he actually caught me at about 500-600'. Definately the 300 though. Steve
