I thought the same thing. Too narrow, too high, and the tame engine was a bore. Hopefully, just like all other Yamaha's, they respond to mods.

 

Why must we always fight? Too much Test.?

 

I never have ridden a Raptor, but I have a feeling I wouldn't like it that much... well, I take that back because I like riding anything but I don't think I would like riding it as much as my Dale. From what everyone says, it sounds like it lacks power for such a big motor. Well, atleast they look cool. I guess after a few mods, like a different pipe, some air box mods, and a K&N kit, the power would be about the same as my Dale. But then you already spend more on it than I bought my Cannondale for.
