i just got my raptor 350 a few days ago and sometimes when in neutral and trying to gear down into first gear it won't go and makes a clicking noise for a second,this only happens every once in a while.Am i not doing something right please help.

 

sorry to change the subject but how do you like it ,i want to get one for my g/f

 

hmm...maybe its a 1st year problem?.....but if it doesn't happen all the time, I would say..ionno....your not pressing down all the way?

 

hey mick 660r its a great bike my bro has a warrior and the raptor is totally different on everything except like the engine,i don't know yet on the speed between the two,but will know tommorrow when we go riding.It maybe that i'm not pressing down all the way,i'll make sure i do from here on out and maybe thats what it is and if it's not i got a 6 month warranty for them to fix it.

 

when this happens,,,,,,try releasing the clutch a bit,,,just to get the tranny to advance enough,,,so that it will slide completely into gear

(be sure to use just a little clutch,,,,your not trying to get rolling,,,just till you barely feel it advance,,,then pull it back in and the shift should be nice and smooth (clunk)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Hint:
You may want to edit your thread title to 'Raptor 350' (instead of just 'Raptor').
You will get more input from the Warrior guys,,,,instead of a bunch of views from us confused misguided Raptor 660 owners. (same motor as warrior)

 

hey thinks for the advice bing,and yeah i did notice that after i posted the thread.

 

let us know how you like that thing

once you get used to it

 

found the problem i wasn't pushing down hard enough to put it into gear the ticking noise was when it was between first and nuetral.

 

Make sure and let us know how you like the 350. I looked at one at the dealership a week back. It was a nice looking ride.
