Default Limited Edition

I was looking at the Yamaha site and checked out the 2004 Raptors and Banshee's just to see the new colors. I really like the Red and White Raptors and Banshee's. They definetly stand out. I also enjoy the look of the Limited Edition Raptor with the exception of those solid black wheels. But the all black Banshee is definetly something that needs to be changed. Solid black is way to plain. Any opinions on the new colors for the Raptor and Banshee?

I didn't like the white plastics on the Raptor. Though I did like the all black Raptor.

Actually, the solid black banshee would be an excellent starting point. Take that solid black machine and chrome it to death. With such a huge aftermarket around for the Banshee, you could turn that quad into an excellent showpiece, a real head turner. If I had the cash lyin' around, I'd pick one up for sure....

Wow... that's is a lot of black on the Banshee. It looks like something out of a Delta Force movie. Probably a little too much black. You need to have some color, polished alumium, chrome to break it up. I have a Banshee with Black Plastic and it's a pain. You see "every" little scratch in it. The tank covers get all scratched from your knees rubbing against them. Don't get me wrong I like Black. I've got (3) cars and (2) ATV's that are Black, It's just a hard color to keep nice if you use it (or abuse it off-road).

Yeah, every little scratch shows up on my black raptor as well. But with the extra cash, the solid black banshee could be nice. It should have atleast aluminum wheels. But your right, with the right amount of cash it could look good. I like the white raptor though.

Did you guys notice the new MSRP on the Raptor for 2004? They have lowered the price to $6199!
