Sorry to hear about the wreck. Hope you didnt eat it also. Are you going to buy another Rappy or try the 450? Choices, choices, cant loose with those two to pick from.

Considering the parts in the mail, and the parts I have in a box....another Raptor. 2004 White and Red. I have so many aftermarket parts I would lose $2000 if I got the 450. So I'm going to get another Raptor...I know of a place that still has a Limited Edition with the Red Flames, so I'm going to look at it as well.

Yamaha660R- I would like to know how you liked the Maxxis Sur Traks? Good in mud? Did you ever try them in the sand? Thanks

the Sur Trac's go great in mud...although they get alittle too much bite on certain hill climbs [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

and why would i waste all my extra parts and buy a YFZ? i'm sure with my mods I could beat a YFZ and definetly take my raptor far beyond the yfz. so i'm sticking with the power...660 for me
