Just my thought, since I was looking for a used raptor, and with this new addition to Yamaha, I was thinking it will be a good time to start looking for one, since more people are going to start buying the YZ and probably selling their raptors. I just wish I had the $$$ to buy this new "one", 350lbs is SICK, if you take off the electric start and do some other weight saving things your looking at it being lighter than a blater[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]. well back to the subject, is this going to be a good/bad time to look for a used raptor.

Thanks,

Mark

 

A very good time!

I don't plan to sell mine but i am sure a few people will.

 

I think i will also stay with my raptor, and keep on modding it.

 

Thanks guys, its good to see that ther will still be SOME raptor owners [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Everyone is going crazy over this yz450, I even think its sort of ugly[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Thanks for some replies,

i may be selling my 03 warrior for a used raptor i have started keep my eye out for them know.. wait tillt he 450 is actually on the floor. then it would be used raptor paradise!! hoping i can get a good used 03 or 02 mayb.. rather have the 03.. or mayb a 02 or 03 LE rappy that would be nice trade warrior and like 100-500 bucs and have a raptor i wish!

 

The prices of all used sport quads has come down with all the new ones out now. You could tell when the z's and predators came the prices dropped, and their will probably be more for sale with the yzf coming out.

 

Keeping my Raptor, no urge to go buy the YFZ450 only a urge to ride one.

 

I'll be keeping my Raptor (poored too much money and time into it at this point)......If the 450 is as good as the hype it's gonna be a very nice ride - time will tell.

Now is an excellent time to look for a Raptor. Lots of guys need to have the latest and greatest and will be dumping Raptors like the 400ex when the Z400 came out. Remember when Raptors were selling for $10k just to be the first on the block - I predict similar silliness....
