i have heard that some guys have had two sets of starter gears put in in less then a year ??? my buddys is makeing lots of noise , will need done soon hopeing for better ones then yamaha.....HELP

 

Luckily I purchased the extended warranty for my Raptor, and it already paid for itself. One new front shock(blew out), new seat cover(seperating), and they had to replace the dragging! starter gears, the actual starter was ok, but it was the gears below it behind the case cover. Good luck.
