Where you guys been...I haven't talked to you guys in awhile. What's been going on???

 

I've been jetting on the craptor.........and working........and going ta skewl.........GRR........I hate college.........lol

what have you been up to?

 

I been needing to jet the craptor, but haven't gotten the chance. Pretty soon I might go up to TheRaptorMan's house and let him work on my raptor to get the jetting right. Or I will take it to Yamaha PowerSports in Hurricane to let them work on it. But lately I just been hill climbing and that is it.

I need to add some performance mod's to my Raptor before summer, and probaly put some new/better clutches in it. I got some plans for the rappy. So it should be running good by summer.

I just been lost as to what you guys have been into lately....

 

have you tried a gearing change?
my friend has the alba pipe.......and a pro flow with K&N
he wants to cut the air box completely off like I used to have mine.........jet it up.......and run 14\40 gearing.........
do you think he could pull it?
would it be quicker in a 300' drag?

 

i think he should go down to a 12/40 gearing, and with the low end torque take off in second. that would quicken his time.

i ran a 13/40 with mine and got 5.7 and consistent 5.8's

but my air pressure had me screwed up. i was standing up off the line cause i missed practice. but taking the box off, jetting up, and using the 12/40 with the right air pressure could be a awesome holeshot in 2nd gear.

 

that's what I told him.......but he thinks that since I run 15/40 gearing......then he thinks he can run 14/40

I told him to try the 12/40, but he won't.........
he doesn't do much race'n........he does dirt road and county road ride'n.......basically like me......

I can't even launch in 2nd with my gearing(15/40)..........it feels like the time that I tried to launch 3rd with the 12/40 gears.......LoL
it takes A LOT of clutch.....LoL

 

damn, with high gears like that i wouldn't even think of trying to launch in 2nd. lol

i still have stock gearing, but i have a 12 for when i have to lug on hill climbs. lol

my 13/40 gearing is fine with me for now. i even race some people around here and my gearing works good. the 22's on the back screw with me some with the gearing, but with 20's it works great.

i run 20's racing, and i had some good runs. 5-0 and won the stock raptor division.

alba definetly helped me, and ruled that event on my bike. lol.

i could have gotten alittle better if i could have practiced.

but how do you like the high 15 tooth gearing????

 

I don't really like it.........it makes it feel weak.......LoL......doesn't pull as hard as the smaller gears.........

but it still pulls waaaaaaaaaaay harder than it did b4........when I put my extended swingarm on (end of the weeK) I will change to 14/40.......that will make the 2nd gear launch much easier......
I raced a mustang with this gearing and SPANKED it.......
dude said that he ran a 14.2 quarter
HAHA
my truck runs like a 15.5 and he beat me by A BUMPER when I was in my truck with the craptor in the bed..............

then I pulled the craptor out and raced him..........LoL......that was just bad.......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
I was proud.....

 

Hey if you guys are still on let me know what kinda of pipe is the best for a raptor. I dont realy care for the most expensive just want the best for the money. Thanx

 

MBRP or SPARKS X-6 especially if you are going to consider and engine upgrade in the future
