I have ridden both and would buy the z400.
I think it is slower on the top end.
It handles lots better then the raptor.
You are usually in 3rd gear so top speed isnt a issue most of the time.
Drag races are only 300ft so topend still isnt an issue.
Handling is what I look for in a machine

Teaching quads a lesson
The real question is .... what kind of riding do you do?. If you're considering a Z400 .... you might want to wait a few months for the new Z450 to come out. That way A) If you are looking for a quicker and faster Z, that'll be the one or B) left over Z400's might be going for a huge price reduction in order to clear out old stock.

Raptor! I've ridden both, and the rappy took my breath away compared to the Z...

well the z should be able to handle the jumps good now that they have solved the cracking frame problem the quad was plagued with.Originally Posted by jacob

I just asked the guy at the Suzuki shop last week and he said he didn't know when. He also said Suzuki will start advertising it before they have any set delivery dates.
