Yamaha beats KTM

[Mike99KFX]

It was in this months Dirt Wheels, so take it for what it's worth, but the Raptor beat the 525xc and the Polaris in this months big bore shootout.  I never rode any on these quads, so I wouldn't know, but I've owned 3 KTM bikes and trust me, I would never buy the quad.  Maybe Dirt Wheels finally got one right, or KTM didn't pay them as much as the Yamaha execs.  Who knows.

It is something how the 525 spanked the 700 in drag racing though isn't it 

[svtbolt04]

Im willing to bet they downfall to them was the price tag. I would buy a ktm for xc.. the 700 just wouldnt get the job done.

[kfx400rob]

the 700 is a pretty big heavy bike, the 525 definitely looks a bit more sporty. Id take the ktm.

the 700's are junk...and so are stock yfz's...thats a dumb article

[~Demon_Boy250X~]

Now that's a dumb statement  . The Raptor 700 is one of the best bikes that you can get away from the race bikes. Honestly, you shouldn't make any comments on ANY bikes being junk considering that you have (2) of them in your sig (lol). So how would you rate the Polaris bikes?

Well, the KTM motors are very powerful no doubt... BUT THAT'S NOT A POLARIS PRODUCT  . If I offended anyone that has a Polaris I apologize. But the quality of their bikes overall compared to the Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawi, CanAM, or KTM is subpar. And what races are you going to to see this? Myself, Dreth, T2 and others are having a "Battle & BBQ" at a local spot here on a no jump track. You interested? Then I can see how fast your Polaris really is 

[predatorracer8]

i would love to attend, depending on the date. by the way i dont know how many times i have to say this but KTM and Polaris are very close companys and were even going to completely merge at one point so KTM quality and Polaris quality= The same. im not bashing any brand im just stating were they fall into place.

[Ride1Rob]

i would love to attend, depending on the date.

The 12th (This coming Saturday)

 Jake, you better save your strength for QS 8, you already have a commitment to show Dave how fast your Polaris is.

I doubt we'll be doing much riding during the summer. It's just too darn hot and muggy. I ride, but it's normally in the AM. Too bad you can't come out this weekend. I'd like to see how the Polaris runs against some of the other bikes.

LOL, you have a fifty? That's probably more your speed anyway. The Zuk must be your dads or something and you claim it as well. Okay, we'll just say it's YALLS (lol).

I spoke with Dreth about you. He told me that your a good kid and you're still learning. I didn't know that you were 16    .YOU STILL HAVE ALOT TO LEARN ABOUT BIKES AND RIDING! Keep up the good work and keep getting better  . Hopefully one day I'll be watching you on TV winning alot of races  . But your not ready for what we'll be doing on Saturday.

[slam1]

Hey Ride1Rob, what exactly are ya doin on sat? MX XC TT are you guys fast?

[Ride1Rob]

Where we're going has trails, but we won't be doing any trail riding. It's a MX style track with TT like turns.

OUT78, I don't have a Raptor.

[greenmachine]

I've seen this guy Rob ride, you guys dont want any trust me. His YFZ eats Polaris' & craps KTM's on a bad day. Last time I seen hims drag race a Polaris, he pulled the kill tether at 1/2 track & coasted to victory.
The man has forgotten more skillz than you youngsters will ever learn.
PLease do yourselve's a favor & dont try Rob or you will be crawling back home with your tails between your legs his YFZ is DA SHIZ!!!
Dreth wishes he had 1/8 of the skill & speed that this guys has. Remember Dreth rides a Honda They are just for looks

[Ride1Rob]

Uh oh... It's on now!!!
