Seem's to me this isint to bad of a price for a new rr quad ? does any one see anything that Im missing for a raptor rr quad I did forget it has nerfs and a kill switch already .

 

I don't see any skid plates to replace the stockers. I'd do the swing arm and engine minimum.

 

I don't know much about woods racing but I thaught at one time I heard some one say that a full +1 forward could make the ball joints bind. I'm not sure if this is correct so take it with a grain of salt.

 

Timmy Boy makes +1" +1" A-arms. I have not seen anything about binding, but I have no direct experience to confirm nor deny. Don't forget reinforced or beadlocked rims.

 

I will look into timmyboy for the a-arms
from my exspearance bead lock rims are a waste of money stock rims with a rolled edege are very strong and I've never debeaded a tire yet .I run razor tires and they seem to have a good bead on them . took 60 psi to bead them on my ex ....man I was shaken ??? tick tick boom ......

 

I must be unlucky. The first hard ride with my new 6 ply 23" Razrs on the front, I overcooked a corner (didn't adjust my riding style enough for the 3" of wet snow), clipped a tree and popped the left front clean off the outside bead and pushed the tire all the way over to the inside. Also tweaked the rim so it has about 1/4" runout now. This was with 6 psi of air on stock rims. I didn't bend anything else, so all it did was ruin a ride.
