In the newest issue of dirt wheels. 24,000 dollar raptor. Runs a etlebrock carb. For 24k i would want a fast raptor myself.

 

24k!!! Wow![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] That thing better cut the lawn & wash the dishes also.!

 

25 grand...my god is the whole thing gold plated and chrome, id like to see the engine mods

 

Where did they get 740? Is it a 727 and they just rounded up? Or is it a new bore/stroke combo?

 

It's a 106mm piston, the price for the engine is rediculous. $2195 for an exhaust, cam, piston, sleeve, and port job, then they have the list of other required parts that jacks the price up even more. It's pretty sad when you offer the kit at that price, but everything that is required to do it isn't included. Boring the case to accept the larger sleeve isn't part of the kit, but you have to have it done to do the kit, it doesn't include stainless valves or a new rod or anything for that price.

 

Yeah, I hate it when companies do that. If it needs to be done, list it! And do it for a good price! Like Craycraft, they list everthing you will need.

By the way, what is the cheapest that you guys have seen a good set of Raptor valve springs for? Thanks.

 

i thought duncan only had a 700 kit for the rappy?
Whos quad is this, are they on the forum???
and whats the deal with running edelbrock.....sha, FCRs....?

 

That thing has every little detail covered. The only things not replaced were the engine and frame! I think if i had 25K to spend on my bike, i could've done a better job, but then again it's all rider preference. Who was in charge of this project anyways? I do like the ELKA rear shock and linkage, very nice. Extra inch of wheel travel with no increased ride height.

 

I take it no dyno plot shown or projected HP numbers? I really don't care about the kit, just to see if the carb can supply enough air and fuel.

I got tired of DW so I don't subscribe anymore.

 

Its in dirwheels the new october issue the people that made the machine i doubt there on this forum
