Default Raptor Problems

Raptor is backfiring bad. It has no power for a wheelie or going fast. You cant even get it into 3rd gear because the rpms are so low. I road it through water recently and i have no clue what the problem is.

Can you give us anymore info than this? The more info you can give us the better. Will it physically not go into 3rd or does 3rd just feel weird, like you should be in 2nd? Do you think water is the factor?

Sounds like you might have water in the gas tank. Try fresh gas. It wouldnt hurt to do an oil change either.

Stuck parking brake switch or stuck reverse rev limiter. Both will do what you describe.
