Well it's over. Traded in my 400 for a Predator today. Sorry to see it go, Honda can't keep up. If they would have released a new quad I would have a honda. Can't wait to ride it.:D

Pred vs pred huh, Hmm I think with your pipe and filter you will smoke me :eek2: Tell you what, we will race through the dunes;)
do you have sand tires on the pred? fronts , rears. Didn't you get the roosters? I need to get mine on polaris rims or honda pattern hubs. How are you jetted on the pred for the dunes. Will I need to rejet for elevation? What did yours come with stock?

I posted a ton of stuff on the Roosters..DONT BUY THEM.They are total crap!:mad: Im stickin to an Extreme Hauler of another set of Turbo paddles, at least I know the Turbos are a really good tire;) ...The jetting will be different for you vs. ours with a direct K&N to carb. Our Preddy is set at a 170.Stock is a 150.I wanna say you go up a size for every 1800 feet?:confused: just bring a few extra jets or maybe call the Dealer in Rexburg and ask what they are jetting specs for up there.:)

Good Luck with the Pred. I heard the Anti-Squat rear shock is terrible for the MX track.:confused2 Oh well seems like you do dunes anyways.

The rebound seems extremely slow on the rear shock :ermm: . Thats adjustable though.
