Default WORLDS FASTEST RAPTOR should be out playing friday and saturday

TRASH TALK some talk more than others and some only talk with no action. Ive had my share and nothing ever really gets resolved. I also get sucked into it. We all know the craycrafts are fast and the big bore DS650s run great. I dont know who the fastest Raptor is but I can say the fastest one Ive seen is Dollarbillz. Hes also a class act. As far as the fastes DS well The Bomb is really quiet awesome. He also seems like a very nice guy. If this Raptor can beat these two Ill give him all the respect Ive got.

Mr.Meaner- this 730 will make dollarbillz and the bom look like they are only piped and jetted and we all know how fast The Bom is. This raptor is unbielibable.

Mr.Meaner- Vidoes should be posted sometime tommorow. I did not think a fstroke single would ever go this fast.

Why isn't anyone working on the Kawi 700 as a starting platform? You could get it to 800 I'll bet plus 2 cylinders would always rev better than 1. It has to have more potential than a big bore single cyl, IMO.

thomez "IMO" if it takes alittle under 5grand for the carbs & motor for the rappy. The 700 with twin cylinders is twice the money, alittle under 10grand maybe & someone spending alot more for R&D.
whats the best bang for the buck?
just my 2cents worth!

Makes sense...

But like they say - you gotta pay to play. Want the fastest quad ? Pony up, it ain't cheap.

Also, you wouldn't have to go as extreme with the extra displacement and 2 cylinders. A simple high compression piston with a little bigger bore and some decent tuning on a slightly better than average carb and you might have something damn impressive.

I was just wondering.... always curious.

thomez true but with the automatic you have to do more dail in with the motor & trans (clutch & weights) to get it hooked up. also this rappy is running low compression piston & not a high compression piston, whats up with that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] sometimes easier said than done, who knows not me. I'm slow but getting faster by the month[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] (but I love my bike[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] ride what you love[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]!
Later!
Joe
