I read about these Aarms on the yamaha raptor, and them being made from thin aluminum and bend easily. I would like to know if this is a problem that other yamaha raptor owners should worry about, or is it just 1 atv that suffered? And if they are thin and fragile, is yamaha standing behind this mistake or are they really deleating these post's like i have read earlier.?

 

"A cell of trained Yamaha agents, using software called 'Raptor,' the same package the FBI wants legalized for surveillance of E-mail transactions, is hacking into all E-mail switches, servers, and networks, deleting all traffic with negative comments about the A-arms of the new Yamaha ATV, also named 'Raptor.'"

Treefarmer all I gots to say is VERY KEWL STUFF!!

 

LOL! Good one Tree Farmer.

 

Yes, Yamaha wants their new flagship to be great and they won't get that way with faulty parts. The warranty will cover it.

 

To bad the name of the FBI software is CARNIVORE!

But raptor is close enough!

So far it has only happened to one person and he already said Yamaha is taking care of it for them. Yamaha does stand behind their products. I had a problem with my first warrior years ago and Yamaha took care of it for me. That's why I bought my 99 warrior and was completely satisfied till I heard about the Raptor. I just couldn't resist this awesome beast. And since I had it I am more then pleased overwelmed is more like it. If there are problems with the Raptor I'm not worried because Yamaha will take care of it.

 

There was another post that someone made that sounded like it caused a substantial crash...
