all stock the raptor is the fastest out of those i believe. That will be on top end, id say the new 450 would be quicker off the line.

top end I believe is DS. Then raptor/banshee (I don't believe that crap about raptor being faster).

In a 1000 feet drag, it'd probably be banshee/predator, raptor/DS.

Not listed either but a cannondale should take them all. And yes the DS650 is faster, than a raptor.

your probably rigth ds650 is fastest on top end but on 400 ft drag i think the pred is faster.

I dont feel like the Predator is anywhere close to being the fastest. YFZ/TRX450's are top of the heap, followed by Raptor/DS. Thats just from my experience, though.;)

with all them being stock off the showroom floor the predator is 2 mph faster on top end than a raptor. I think the pred is the fastest topend stock, except for the 04 DS.

I raced a Raptor with a K&N and Jet kit and Razr tires today and a stock Predator with my YFZ 450 today . Out of the hole I take them no problem . The Raptor takes me on top end by about 1 1/2 bike lengths . the Predator by 1/2 a length . Was also on hard pack snow and my YFZ is stock .

I agree with Quadjunkies on this one. You hit it dead on Tina with your order.

Remember this is if you are running wide open for a long distance. We're not talking in a 300 ft drag. Thanks!!!

but, if it were just a 300' drag, like at friday nite races, the order changes, exactly opposite.

I have not raced a pred that I could not beat, MX, XC, Trails, or a drag.

YFZ...nothing special to it, just well balanced and VERY quick.

But, yall know that already.

take care and GO RACE SOMEBODY....get photos and report back your REAL results.

The topic of the thread was "who is the fastest" that is the acurate #'s for top speed quads,you cant possibly get an accuate # for who is TOP DOG in a drag IMO with stoock or lightly modded quads, ALOT of factors invloved in accurate results......Heck, IV beat a YAMMI in a Drag with my pipe 400ex:huh :eek2: But we BOTH know its not faster, I just know how to get off the line in a hurry.......:p :D If we REALLY wanted to get serious on whos fastest..........It would DEF be the Zilla 500:blah:

That would be my cousin's. (2004TRX450R) Yea, I rode it for about 5 minutes. Its pretty sweet, has a really easy balance point for wheelies, and turns tight. It was tough to get it on 2 wheels when i was trying, so thats a good sign. Its good enough that I am most likely putting the Banshee for sale and buying one.:cool:

Id say we were runnign maybe anywhere from 700 feet to 800 feet ... on hard packed snow where planes land on the ice . Top end meaning 5th gear , I didn't have the throttle wide open though because I'm still doing " break-in" and I know I could have revved it a little higher . We were also doing rolling starts , cuz the Predator wasn't hooking up on snow . If I could ahve revved it more and held it open alot longer I think Id have taken the predator . The raptor I believe still have me on top end . The extra CC's show for the Raptor on top end . Low through Mid range ... I pull them like nothing . We'll see next time I take it out . Maybe once I jet it , it'll run a little better.
