Looking for opinions. I have an 03 Raptor thats a pretty sweet ride. But, I just got an older 400 through some tradin on an old pickup. The 400 has +2 A-arms, Full Curtis Sparks exhaust, 450 shocks on the front, Jetted and a K&N air filter. The Raptor has always seemed top heavy, the suspension is so so, and I hate the high first gear but love the power. I spent a few hrs on the 400 yesterday and loved it. It seemed more stable, turned sharper, and the suspension felt great. I am already leaning towards selling the Raptor but would like to hear a few opinions from you guys.

I thought the same thing about the 660 raptor, I rode one and hate it because it felt top heavy and tippy, every time I tried to cut a donut in grass or gravel it felt like it was going to tip. It was fast on straight a ways though. I have a 400ex now and love the way it sits and feels

I've also rode both and the 400 is all around better quad IMO.

I also have a buddy that has a 440 kit sitting in his garage he'd prolly sell if you might be interested. I'll have to check with him and make sure he's still has it if you are.

yea, i am with you guys, for speed, the raptor, but for turns and jumps i would go with the 400

Well, the way its looking I will probably be posting up some pics here and on the good ol Craigslist of a Raptor for sale. Anyone Interested ???

I might be interested. I need to get my bike sold first, but post a few pics on here or send me some. Do you happen to have a title?

Yep, title is still in the previous owners name. I havent done anything with it yet. Probably be around $2500. Its well worth it, I'll post up pics and details later this week.

Lemme throw this out there. If I sell the 400 for $2000 would it be worth putting that back in to the Raptor? Or putting the money from the Raptor back into the 400?

you could always get a racing suspension that will lower the raptor that would be more worth the money then fixing a 400 thats just a thought

Made up my mind. I rode the 400 today for awhile and the Raptors for sale.

I think if you sell the raptor you can spend half or less of the money and build yourself a fast and comfy ride on the 400ex, they say the 400ex engines are bulletproof so give it a try and let us know

Thats the plan. I'll keep you posted.

This is just me but I would keep the raptor

I too believe the 400 is a better all around machine.
