the raptor 350 is faster but not by much
The Honda is faster than the Raptor on straights.
If you are going by top speed, just barely. Raptor 76 mph to TRX 450 73 mph.
My raptor 250 creamed it. The thing goes 35 mph stock. I have a raptor 250 and it has an hmf pipe on it and goes 56 mph.
in a long distance a 450r honda will win
If it's kind of tight trails the Raptor would probably be better. Now open trails and logging roads that you can really open the bike up on, it could go either way. From what I have read, the Raptor's top speed is faster, but just by a hair. Raptor 76 mph to Honda 450 TRX 73mph
VV that is a lie. i have both the trx250 and the raptor 250 and they r both 2008 and my trx is way better. they are both stock. the raptor is 2 small. my little brother rides it. and im 13. i ride a trx300 but i still think the trx is better. hondas are better over all. especialy toughness. ride Honda people! i have a 08 raptor 250 se and they are by far better than the 250 ex all a 250 ex is a recon 250 with a clutch because they have the same motor and besides they are shaft driven if you want a sporty ATV get chain always because it has better throttle response and they are easier to maintain so get a raptor 250 they are really fast they top out between 60-70 mph
the 250r definately. the 250r is a 2 stroke. The 250ex is a four stroke
about 50-55 faster if you can get pipes bore over.. ect
I have ran my 700xx against a 2008 raptor 700r SE both being stock My 700xx was about the same on level ground in accel. But starting on hills taking off the Raptor did pull me a little it also was a little more adgile(raptor). We were pretty even (level ground) until I hit fith gear then I pulled the 700r Its top end was at least 10 -15 mph slower. Dealer told me the 700xx would go 84mph stock.
A 2013 honda trx 400x has a 60 horsepower Raptor 700s.
