Default Raptor Aftermarket Rods ???

I'm going to talk to Bob when I get the final price on my 686, and see if I should get a new rod, or use the stocker.

If you plan on getting the FCR's later I would definitely get an aftermarket rod. I can show you what my bike did after 3 months of riding with the FCR's but really I didnt ride it that much. They do make a big difference in performance thats why I am keeping them.

I have been trying to call Robertson for some time now and all I get is a busy tone. Do they have a website?

Why do you think the FCRs contributed to your stock rod breaking?
