Raptor 660 - Raptor 700 VS DS450X On Trails

It looked like you have something to say about trail riding and luck involved in that depo. I would like to Know if anyone has played against a DS450 in any regards because i know on My hopped up 660 I Couldnt keep up on Fast technical trail rides with 450s Couldnt tried like hell but couldnt mind you as soon as we touched straight spots i could reel just about anyone in...

BTW this is not to be a Pissing Contest I LOVED My 660 and Wish i had been smart enough to put that build on a stronger rod but in the time that is ran i learned that 50 - 60 pounds adds up fast on a Hard trail ride and that is the reason for this Thread I Am In NO WAY  saying that a Rap 660 or 700 is Slow i am just feeling that a 450 revs faster and allows a rider to toss it around easier when shit get tight....

I'd love to ride a DS450.  It's great they are thinking outside the box with there designs.  450's are race breed & the 700 is an all around machine.   Maybe changes in ride height or shock upgrades would close the gap with the 450's.

I know Ice Racing the 450's would pull away coming out of corners but the Rappy could make up for it on the long straights.  It sucked.

The DS450x will most likely be my next quad purchase.  I've ridden against them twice this year, and the only reason I beat them is that their riders were novices.  I rode one for about 20 minutes during practice and couldn't believe how it handled  :jaw:  I wasn't impressed with the power delivery, but I'm sure that's just a few mods away.
