    The 400EX IS the best wheelie machine hands down. LMAO...they have the LT80 on there but no Raptor...WTF?? Raptors are a pretty good wheelie machine...but nothing can touch a Honda

    dirtwheels did that test before the raptor even came out on the scene, i'm glad they put the banshee on there its one of the easiest to wheelie, i ride my friend's banshee at 12 o'clock all the time until it starts going to the side, but the 400ex is the number one quad to wheelie, hands down!

    i usually do them at the drag strip, when those tires get heated no matter how much tread is on them they will grip like he*l

    My KFX 400 rides awsome wheelies. I can ride a good hundred yards or so uphill in the sand where we ride. It is all stock except for a set of Kenda Geckos on the rear.

    Lots O Trikes!!!!!

    My vote goes to the Blaster hands down. Maybe because I was too heavy for mine, but it would pull wheelies right through 6th gear.

    The bayou shouldnt even be on there. I can't ever do wheelies with one. You have to go in reverse and dump it into 1st for it to wheelie. It will not do a flat out wheelie.

    Raptor

    Raptor is the best wheelie quad stock for stock, The Raptor a 400ex are close, Raptor is a heavy SOB, and the 400ex is lighter than the Raptor. you can wheelie easy on a Raptor in 3rd gear, hard to keep the front down just in first. I own a Raptor and I have ridden other quads. A lot of people bash the Raptor but stock for stock the Raptor will Kill 95% of bikes out there. This is coming from a Honda and a 250r man, My 85 250r will kill my Raptor. But the Raptor is a great machine and the only few quads that are in its compitition is the Quadzilla, YZF450, DS 650, and when the CRF450 quad comes out.
