Default Raptor Motor in Warrior??

I found a raptor motor on ebay that runs and everything. It's very cheap...but what I am wondering is...would this fit in my warrior frame without stretching the frame or nothing? Custom motor mounts yes, no big deal, but would it fit without too much trouble? or would I need to stretch my frame?

I don't think it would fit without modifying the frame. I've thought about putting a raptor motor in my warrior, but when I compared the raptor frame and the warrior frame dimensions I came to the conclusion that the motor wouldn't fit. Also the exhaust would hit the frame because of the way it wraps around the motor. If you compare the motor dimensions and the size of the frames, I think that you will also find that it just doesn't work out. That is why I'm planning on investing on an FST Big Bore kit.


How do you put your quad specs here???

Yes , it will fit without frame stretching, but be ready for a lot of frame mods, don't know what your gonna do with the radiator though, I stuffed a XR650 air-cooled in mine.

The motor won't fit WITHOUT STRETCHING. A XR650 motor may fit but a raptor motor is too tall and the warrior's frame is too shallow. Go ahead buy the motor but it will not fit in the frame without some-what modifying it.

If I were you i'd use a banshee motor! It is more compact and, can be made faster cheaper. Also I'd bet it would be way easier to find custom parts to make it work since they put banshee motor is many kinds of frames!
