Hey, I know everyone is sick of what is faster than what, but i am just curious which will win. I will have a LRD pipe and a K&N and other minor mods by the time I drag this kid. I know top speed doesnt count, unless your draggin. But I would like to know. :huh

Thanks Craig

You don't stand a chance. He is going to kill you hands down.

RM, on asphalt he will kill you, on my KX i can beat a 400 by at least 7-9 bike lengths, but it is all in hte traction

not to sounds like an idiot, but i have beaten my friends KX125 in a drag with my 400. this is the honest truth. he has a pipe on it. i have a 416, WB track cam, r-4 slip-on, fcr39, 18"rears, and 16/36 gearing. we raced both in wet dirt (rained the night before) and on the road. the raod was closer for him. i dont know if he wasnt tryin, he said he was, his bike doesnt run right, or if i just flat out beat him.

Alright thanks for you thoughts on this. In the spring time i will find out how bad he beats me in a staright line. LOL, he isnt very good on the trail or track, and thats all what matters.

i have friends with a 98 and 99 CR's, and a 97 and 96 RM. truthfully the only bikes that can take me top end are the RM's. those rm's are fast!! even though their older they feel like that have more power all around that both the hondas plus they are definately faster. i had about 3 lenghts on the honda and the RM had about 1 and a half. this was topped out for a long time. my mods are cut out spark arrestor, open airbox with uni, and cut fenders, those are my only mods that could increase my speed at all. now my friend that had the 99 has an 03 cr125 and an 03 cr250 but we aven't raced yet.
