i have had my raptor for over a year. I havnt had any problems out of it and i have raced CC and mx. i must be lucky with my yamies, cause i have a 97 banshee still on stock motor. but that is due to the PRO-FLOW kit, hahaha. anyways, did they make more of the blue raptors? what color raptors is most of these problem plaged RAPTORS? I did bend my A-arms in a crash but that worked out good because i got a set or Burgard A-ARMS +1+2.

 

I dont think the color of the plastic has anything to do with it.
Except the honda 400EX.

The red is faster than the yellow. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

But the blue ones are faster

 

I heard the blue ones are the ones with the most problems. Heck, it's all that blue, it can't be good. I heard the BLUE paint on the frame is reacting with the BLUE plastic causing a chemical reaction with the BLUE airbox and getting in the motor causing the owners to be BLUE. (and green with envy that they didn't buy a Black/white one). Maybe just a rumor, I don't know.

 

the blue ones are faster, faster to fall apart... Just kidding. How could color determine anything except just one more topic for us to debate.

 

I see your logic but I dont think it holds much water. They come off the line in batches and not one blue, then a white, etc.... It could be a bad batch of them and not all of them. Did the batch of serial numbers happen to be blue? Probably wont ever know. By the way everyone knows yellow is faster, if there was ever any doubt go to Beaterz you will soon learn the power of yellow.

 

This is a subject that was covered a while back in detail. The outcome was that the black and white raptors are faster due to the way the colors capture the sun and moon rays, then convert those rays to additional power. In our camp the black and whites are faster and when we put a blue rider on a balck and white it even goes faster. (weird)?
