I suppose it all depends on what sort of riding you want to do.
I've got a Raptor and they have a huge amount of torque
You don't really need to worry about not being in the right gear
They are awesome _________________ The older I get the faster I was !! |

Is buttered popcorn better than unflavoured?
Cause I'm going to need some for this. _________________ Don't close your eyes during the crash, you'll miss the best part |

If you were going to go for a 450 for trail riding/dunes/whatever I would suggest the Suzuki LTR, but yeah the rappy's are great. _________________ Cheers,

+1 for the LTR. Can't fault mine on sand or trails, has never skipped a beat.
Nice and wide for stability, donk is still like new after 175hrs-no rebuild  |
