What difference will I notice between the 4m pepper vs 4.5 Bullet ?

I can't speak for the pepper but owned a 4.5 Bullet. It is not a good kite for jumping at all. I saw it and the 5.5 slam more than 1 kiter hard to the ground. Get your timing off on a jump and it is sure to happen.

Just wondering if the bullet would be a better buggy engine than the pepper. :puzzled:

The pepper would be a better buggy engine, it is more forgiving than the bullet.
Besides,"wouldn't you rather be a pepper to?" hahaha

I know there's a 6m for sale on the forum and an 8m also. great prices to boot.

I don't know anything about the Pepper kites but I recently got a 2.5 Bullet. I continue to be shocked at how much grunt this little 2.5 has. It puts my DP Power 3.5 to absolute shame in the raw power department! The downside with the Bullet from what I've noticed it's not as well mannered as any of my other kites. It's "twitchy" for sure in that you must pay attention to it at all times or even the little 2.5 can hurt a less experienced pilot. On a positive note though when the winds are up this is the kite of all the ones in my quiver that puts the biggest smile on my face! Not refined and mannerly but in the right hands is a real rush. FWIW, Don't go for a Bullet if you want something more behaved and predictable.

who is selling a 6?

You all pretty well answered my question.

Thanks

Again , I don't have experience with the Pepper but I have plenty with the Bullets. If the pepper is better behaved than the 4.5 Bullet then it should be an awsome kite. The bullet is designed as a buggy engine and served up lots of power. The only surprise it ever dealt was it's issue with slamming you when trying to jump. Other than that it was a sweet kite with a good range and not too much lift. It is an older design than the pepper so ??

I agree with Annie0- I have a Bullet 2.5 and that thing can easily "Superman" you in the right winds. I NEVER fly it in gusty winds!! It collects every ounce of wind and converts to power. I have done small jumps but its not made for that. Drive this kite through the power range and you will skud like crazy.

It is my favorite buggy engine for my wind conditions.

The 4.5 and 5.5 add a nice hard slam to earth to the superman act.

Not jumping kites but great engines.

I love the bullets as a buggy engine, not bad on a board, they do require some attention and are not for jumping although they will lift you if provoked. I find them to be quite fast and responsive to brake input, even though they can be a handful to bring down when it is really blowing. Lots of power, wear your kite killers and be prepared to let go.
