No damage from an accident is covered under warranty. It is pot luck whether you can get Yamaha to replace the damaged components. My dealer (Honda East in Bear, DE) told me that Yamaha replaced an upper and lower a-arm for a guy who was clearly in the wrong. He ran into a fence post. His only argument was that he didn't hit it all that hard. Yamaha covered the parts and the guy had to cover labor.

I would try but wouldn't hold out much hope.

checkout ebay motors. Do a search on Yamaha Raptor and look through the listing. There are a-arms listed individually for auction.

don't tell them you wrecked it. Or just take in the upper arms for evaluation if there is visible damage on the quad.

I bent the upper right a-arm on my Raptor, and the dealer replaced it. Took them a long time to do it, but they replaced it. Just start complaining on how the upper a-arms are made out of aluminium and they're too weak, and see what they do.
