Today was my first CLOSE look at a Ds 650........and it appears that you can jet the carb without removing the whole front end like you have to on a rappy..........Y'All suck! LoL
I wish I would have known this when I bought the craptor.......

 

That is also the case on the KFX 700 V Force. You can rejet without even removing the carbs. Takes all of ten minutes.

 

gosh yamaha makes me sick!!!

BigScary, how long does it take you to jet your rappy???

 

Yeah, I hate rejetting. So much time, and so many tools. You need a hex key AND a screwdriver! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I hate rejetting the Raptor, it just plain sucks [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

usually an hour and a half.........when I put the fenders back on.........when I am playing with jetting I typically leave the fenders off till I get it right....

 

lol

It takes about 40 minutes to do my Wife's Raptor and about 5 to do mine (including the 4 minutes to find a bottle opener for my beer!)

Put a TM45 carb on the DS and a 17mm socket and a small screwdriver are all you need.

I have pulled the head / cylinder on both engines - DS is much easier. Gotta love DOHC vs. rocker arms. The Rappy is nice in that you adjust the valve clearance with a wrench where the DS you need shims but, it is much easier to read the clearances on the DS than on the Rappy and I feel much more comfortable that it will stay within tolerances with the DS than the Raptor.

How about changing the plug(s). I can change both plugs on the DS in about 10 minutes. . . again about 30 minutes on the Raptor - plastic removal!

Yep, definitely would rather work on the DS than the Raptor!

 

Plastic removal? You're making it a lot harder than it needs to be[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
