In my dream, I am a Yamaha executive. I decide to offer the Raptor in 3 different trim levels.

1) Stock, as it is now. $6000
2) Stock engine, aftermarket pipe, Elka SSD shocks. $7500
3) Big Bore engine, aftermarket pipe, Elka SSD shocks, +2 a-arms, +2 swingarm, +4axle, braided brake lines, wave rotors, Dyna FS CDI box, Hyper Beadlocks. $12000

Number 1 would whoop every other stock quad out there in speed and acceleration.
Number 2 would whoop every other stock bore quad out there.
Number 3 would whoop every other quad out there, period.

I would get a multi-million dollar bonus from Yamaha for being such a genius, and retire at age 27.

Then I wake up and realize that I have to work for the rest of my life and spend that money to turn my Raptor into the ultimate quad killing machine.
