I have had mine sinceMay of this year. It is a very great trial machine. If you drag against a Raptor keep the distance short or it will take you on the top end.

 

get a new primary spring and raptors wont be a problem

 

I love my V-Force. I just got back from Glamis (first trip with the V). It handled great and has plenty of low end power to throw sand. I was the only one to climb hill 6 without paddles ,at least while we were there.

 

Great trial machine .......... keep the raptor drags to about 300 - 400 feet and you will win more than you lose. .... after that distance the Raptor will every one of them.

I used to have a 350 warrior and bought the V just a few months ago. I think it's the best ATV for me yet! It does great in the desert, crawling over rocks, riding in the dunes (even without paddles) and has all the power I need. The only thing I don't really care for is going down steep hills, it wants to free wheel so you have to work the throttle to re-engage and use the brakes to get you down safely or you just go flying. I don't care to fly down a hill with 500+ pounds, but then that's just me.

Anyway, I have had a blast with mine and I don't think I'll be replacing it with anything else anytime soon.

 

You weigh 500+ pounds??? That has to be a strain on your machine...

 

No, I don't weigh 500+ pounds!!!! but the V does, plus my little bit of weight, well, we won't go there. Anyway, I have had a lot of fun with it, more so then the warrior. Nice try!

 

the v force stock will take a raptor in 100 yds. some extra mods and it will take it all they way through
