well if you want the fastest out there..cept the hybrids, go with a cannondale, just keep up with the maintence and things and you'll be riding for years..plus they are going real cheap these days...

just keep it all maintained and your set..they sure are niiice

oh yeah its a polaris Predator*
RaptOr

I voted for the ex, I know there is faster and stuff, but you always knows you can count on a Honda. As for the predator, never rode one.

It would help to know your riding style too.... I am assuming you are going to race it... MX I gues... It helps to know riding style the info you gave didn't help much...

I own a Dale but i would say get a Ped or Z. If you think you can handle the Dale and are ok with getting the updates done and keeping up the maintenance then you can get a Dale for under 5000.

man i still say go with the ex they have tons of stuff out on the market for it to help bring it more up to date faster and rip more plus the ex is the most reliable out of the bunch dont get me wrong i like raptors my friends have them but i just think that honda is more reliable and will always get u home no matter wat. here is the dealer i got to to get all of my stuff www.eliteatv.com
the dealer there is awsome he can find anything for u and will get it to u cheaper then any one else after market parts he wont rip u off and if u do find something cheaper he will match there price or go cheaper if possible and go with the ex.

The problem with the EX is the more you do to it the less reliable it will become because it is air cooled, i am not saying it won't be reliable just less reliable. I would prefer a 450 Z with liquid cooling over a 440 air cooled . I think without adding CC's to the ex it will always be down on power compared to the others. I would take a modded ex over a Rap because i just can't stand Rap, too tall and narrow and they vibrate too much. And i think they are tippy and YES i have ridden them. But i warn you, if you ride a Dale you might fall in love with the power and the whole race ready feel of it.

THis one is a toughy..alot has to do with a personal perference and what kind of riding you like, racing ect.. Im a little bias I have both the 400ex and the Predator in my garage :cool: The Dale is one heck of a machinie also, as for gas, gas, its still pretty soon to tell, but sounds like a winner there too!!:blah you just cant comapre these quads together. they are all alot different..;)

The power is unbelieveable. And to top that off with a D&M kit you can put it where you really want it. Maint it not hard especially if you have all of the updates. I guess it depends on what you want to put up with. Personally I have polaris. I work on 3 for my father all the time and they are a pain:mad:and every part cost a fortune. But that is my personal oppinion. ALot of people love them. I would say though if it boils down to a cannondale mabey look at a Speed because they have a little better options and right now you can usually pick one up with little to no hours for 5k

This is all stock with a big gun exhaust. The big gun does not really do much for the dale, especially compaired to the HMF. FDO can get 47.6 with port and polish/blaze map.

This is another riders dyno.

I'm gonna have to say cdale right now, though the polaris is looking nicer everyday. But deep down, the cdale is still my dream bike.

I like the sexy curve of the HMF better.

I guess I should of read some of the posts before I voted. :rolleyes: What kind of job are you getting for the summer? For a 15 year old, money must be an issue. The Gas Gas is the most expesive out of all you listed. Get yourself a 400ex and have fun with it. :D

after reading the intended use, & understanding more about the user, i'd say Z or EX.... they're both great bang-4-the-buck fun machines.
