R u being serious?
They come w/ 12:1 piston and there are some cams for them. I don't think you will need to replace what comes stock though.

All of the motors are exactly the same. As for the power, a stock cannondale will blow a piped raptor away. After owning a c-dale I could not imagine owning anything else. At the prices they are going at right now I would buy another one today if I had the extra money.

Definately enough power
Man, that thing just screams. Im not in town right now, I'll be back next weekend, but will be on the east side at a race.
After that I'd let ya ride it if you wanted an idea of what kind of power everyone is talking about. It's pretty **** impressive

kendrick,
you will be suprised how much faster a stock cannibal is in comparison to your 400ex.
go with the entry level cannibal & add mods as you need them. JMHO

actually, my old 425ex ran with my Cannibal off the line. Once we got them opened up, then I would pull on him, but not by much. A 425ex has gobs of low end, but looses out on top. This is where the Cannondale shines. You'll be happy with a Cannondale. I'm currently rebuilding our Demo Moto. I sent the shocks into Ohlins to see if they can lessen up the rebound alittle and make it more plush. This is the only down fall of a Moto. I'm alittle skeptical about the Ohlins being up to par with the likes of PEP's or Elkas.
One thing. I've noticed Cannondales don't like the grooved car tire front MX tires. It handles good with the Holeshot MX's, but it wouldn't turn with brand new grooved mx fronts. We tried different camber angles and everything. I want to try the Maxxis tires. Anyone try them yet????
