Fastest stock quad

[350Xccelerator]

what is the fastest stock quad ever made.

[Wickedfinger]

.... oh boy here we go ..... as far as top speed stock goes, @ sea level, my pick would be an LT500R. The quickest .... well, I'd pick whoever has the most skill and is having the best day riding and leave it at that. At least this isn't a vs. thread.

[350Xccelerator]

i was thinking the same thing quadzilla all the way. oh yeah i did mean top speed.

[Billy Golightly]

Cannondales are damn fast too

[rippn250R]

I'd say the quadzilla then its really close between the quadracer, tecate4, banshee, and 250R,but banshee could have the edge. But id rather have the R.

[350Xccelerator]

what about the raptor?

[Bill X_R]

Bill X_R<----eats raptors for lunch!!!

The Shellac 1200 is the fastest stock 4 wheeler. I rode one all the way to 182 mph with 1/4 throttle left. It's runs off a 50/50 mix of rocket fuel and nitrous oxide. It costs 382,000 dollars.

[bentwrench]

Guess that make my GPZ/Kaw Warrior a tinker toy.

[JourneyMan]

Do you have pictures of the Shellac 1200...... the fastest stock 4 wheeler?

[ATC crazy]

The Cannondales are the fastest stock, mass produced, currently manufactured ATV on the market today.

Well, i don't know from what perspective we are talking about, but, i can tell you what is fastest from the bottom of the dune to the top of the dune in order, all in stock trim. Here goes: The new Gas Gas 300, Banshee, Cannondale Speed 440, Raptor, DS, Predator, TRX250R, Z400, 400EX and whatever else. I know these because just this past weekend we had this very race and it came out like this nearly every time. The Cannondales are cool but stockers won't take a banshee. That damn Gas Gas is awesome. I never did beat that guy but I just got my new LRD's so i will be gunnin for 'em next time. We didn't race the V Force but i did watch one get smoked by a raptor consistently so it's probably around there with a predator. Didnt have a stock LT500 either but I have seen them in action too and they really don't pack the punch that everyone thinks they do. They probably have a slight edge on a banshee if any. Give everybody a few bucks for mods and then banshees run the show. A mild banshee will beat a mild anything else. i'm sure this will get some argument but, I can't dispute what i experienced several times over. So my vote for fastest stocker (if you can call it that) is the Gas Gas. Thats the way the cookie crumbles.

[ATC crazy]

Rider experience is everything...Put a 10 year old on the Gas Gas and me on a ATC110 and I bet you anything I'd win. We're talking about top speed anyways. Also...Welcome to the board Big Juice. :-P

[250rAL]

I remember these numbers from the old days when the magazines used to put the top speeds by radar gun in their reviews:
250R---70
Banshee---70
Tecate---74
LT500---76

[ATC crazy]

I remember these numbers from the old days when the magazines used to put the top speeds by radar gun in their reviews:

They still do

[Big M Juice]

You'd be amazed what a 10 year old kid can do these days. you get a kid on a 400EX with a few mods and he can beat a few banshees just because he weighs less than a hundred lbs. I have had this happen and I hate it but you gotta love seeing such a young kid giving everybody hell at the races. And i totally agree with rider is everything because once a guy/gal gets the whole sequence of events involved in a race down to a science, they can be competitive. Thats why I cant wait to ride with my new pipes because before I could beat some guys on piped banshees on my stocker just because I know how to race that hill so well. Anyhow, thats about the size of it. I almost feel that a machines top speed is irrelavent but thats just my opinion.

[Kilborg]

lt80's are the fastest machines ever.

[REDMAN225]

in production now....i'd say the ds 650.

[ATC crazy]

Cannondale

[Kilborg]

Lt80.

[ATC crazy]

:D :D :D :D

[REDMAN225]

the new yamaha 450 just might be!

[ridesa02400ex]

still in production i would have to say the predator

[jasenr]

Polaris Trailboss 250!!!!! ;) With a rocket strapped to it. :D

[NOS_350X]

the new yamaha 450 just might be!

no doubt about it that one is the fastest my friends saw a couple of them rinning at the dunes and nutin can keep up with them

[mymint87]

ive heard of a predator being clocked @ 82mph by a state trooper

btw these guys claim to have the new fastest quad

[NOS_350X]

60 HP out of a 250cc quad thats hard to belive

[bigred110]

I think that there "Super Sonic" top speed is a little hard to believe, on their 250. Especially if it has a rack on it.

[ATC crazy]

The Ketchum 250RR has DRUM BRAKES!!! :evil: Look for yourself.

Ya, the new 450 will probably be the fastest quad in production now I'd say...

[350Xccelerator]

Dirtwheels says that the raptor has a 2mph advantage on the yfz 450 on top end, but the 450 beats it everywhere else. Thats what it says in dirtwheels.

[Billy Golightly]

Hmmm that could mean that it is actually a pretty decent trail and mx machine. Seems to me the faster in a straight line they go the sorrier they are anywheres else. Except for maybe the dunes.

[AirManCam]

Idk 60 hp. Thats damn fast! my 350x smoked a raptor on sunday and there deffeantaly not the fastest!

[TeCaTe_MaN]

i have seen some stock banshees eat everything up the sand but maybe it was rider skill :D who knows

[AirManCam]

Ill race ya tecate man! :twisted:

[TeCaTe_MaN]

aight....never eaten a 350x before...suppose i could give it a try :twisted: ;) :rolleyes: tellin ya...i never lost to a 4-stroke and i will try to keep it that way :D

[cartmanchubs]

My buddy has a quidzilla and it beats the new 450.

[AirManCam]

Who said it was on my 350x??? I had a 86 tecate that would eat my 350x up! I never said on my 350x :twisted:

[TeCaTe_MaN]

heheheh.....sry i was lookin at your pic of a 350x and just jumped to conclusions ;) ok, ill race it :D

[AirManCam]

haha and ill smoke you! my 350x will almost smoke you! I know isnt she nice! 8)

[TeCaTe_MaN]

ok...well i think the camera at the finish will haveto distinguish this one....the guys on banshees say theyre gonna beat me too....but then WHAM!!!! :D........and your 350x will almost smoke me in.....drag or top end?, sand or dirt?, paddles if in sand?, and yea nice 350x ;)

[AirManCam]

Dude there is no way you will beat my banshee! And my 350x will run over 70 :twisted: Your done either way!

[REDMAN225]

the new 450 wins according to dirt wheels!

[350Xccelerator]

everywhere except top end.

[AirManCam]

[TeCaTe_MaN]

[kyle]

I heard a stock banshee can do 92mph. I'm not sure if thats true or not, thats just what i heard.

[TeCaTe_MaN]

My Tecate is the MUD MASTER!!! (i wanna get in really deep mud and put on some paddles) :D

[smokinwrench]

I want to see this 2 stroke mud master. Last I new 2 strokes were very low on torque and if I'm not mistaken that is whats needed for mud bogging.

As far as the fastest quad who really cares the guy with the most $$$$$$$$$$$$$ has the fastest quad.

Stock quad who cares who wants to own anything stock unless its a collectors item. Unless it your wifes quad then they automatically need to be stock.

ROFLMFAO.... :D :D :D Ya...while in the bed of a truck...HAHAHAHA

[TeCaTe_MaN]

yea, 2-strokes are kinda low on torque but they have lots of top end, just keep them tires spinnin :D i just mash on it when i get stuck and spin the tires.
