How Many of you DS guys went over to the Yammy Raptor 700??
#1
My 660 is done, tired of sinking money and the reliability is the pitts. Looking into the 700 now (I will still keep my DS). How is it all around? Does it have gobs of low end torque like the 660 did? Easy to wheelie? How does it handle? Does it like to slide? The 660 wanted to tip over or go straight.
Parting out my 660 soon to recoupe what a Rappy 700 will cost. The 09s I hear come with a speedo and a bigger price tag.

You may want to try the other site to get a more informed answer. I don't think anybody really "switched" over but I know a few who did get one in addition to their DS's. A good friend of mine picked up the anniversary edition 700R to have as a back up when the 800 Turbo/NOS/EFI was having some electrical gremlins.
I rode it a few times out at Glamis and you couldn't give it to me, of course I'm 6'4" 260lbs and looked like some kind of circus bear riding a tricycle when I was on it. Too squirley, too light, front end wanted to stay in the air, any girl could handle it in my opinion. If that's the traits that you're looking for in a sport ATV then you may want to check one out.
Just not the feel of the Beast between your legs like the Mighty DS...

I now have an 06 gytr 700 and love it for duning. it rides smooth, has gobs of torque and will stay right up with a piped 450 of any brand. I also still have 2 ds's but bothe mine have street bike motors in them.
