Maybe your friend isnt good at drag racing. I raced my friends piped troy lee with my piped and cammed 450r and I beat him everytime. I even beat him when I had nothing done and he was piped. I will say thought the pred is quick. I do like the power. I just feel like Im driving a 4x4 when im on it. I guess when people are deciding on what to get they really need to ride the bike first. Its not a cheap purchase.
