wow, finally sold the 03 blaster, with in a few weeks, maybe less, i should have a brand new 04 raptor. i cant wait. im sure no one cares, but had to share this with everyone. who here else has to buy their own quads, builds some great responsibility having to work doesnt it. i hate those spoiled brats that have thier parents buy them anything and everything. but i cant wait.

 

THIS POST IS NOT TO START A FIGHT-but to go against the whole "brat" thing, my parents bought me my quad, and i dont have a job. my dad had to start working when he was 14 (now is 48 and cant work due to cancer). everytime i ask if i should get a job, my parents say "your only a kid once, you shouldnt spend your childhood working, that is what you have to look forward to the rest of your life"

 

Im still paying for my raptor and Ive paid for all the crap on it too. Feels good knowing you busted your *** working for it and making everyone else envy you. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

i meant the spoiled brats that brag and say that they didnt have to pay just to rub it in on thsoe who acually work. my parents dont give me a penny on my toys tho. i just know a few ppl that brag because they didnt have to do anything, then they beat the crap of thier quads because they dont know what it means to work. but some ppl are ok, aslong as they arent dicks.

 

Your dern skippy it does, in still paying for mine also, Rider1169 congrats on the Raptor be careful its a big step up from a blaster.

 

lol, big step i know. im 16 and looking forward to it. i always love to ride my friends, i never get off. blaster was fun also, but i was getting cramped on it, im 6ft 1in

 

good luck hope u like ur new rappy!, i will always be a fan of that 2 stroke power band, an example of that power my friend was ridng a cr85 expert and was wheeling from 2to4th gear and as soon as he hit th power band in 4th full trottle the bike came right on top of him lol, messed his knee up pretty bad but he will live (wasnt his bike and broke the back fender right off lol)

 

Rider1169, i was in the exact same boat as you..... bought the blaster, and had a blast on it, but then i outgrew it fast. Now i upgraded to the raptor last fall, it is great, u will love it. I also have to pay for everything of mine, the best feeling in the world is when u pay the last payment..... yea, i know a kid that his dad bought him everything, and he just beats the **** out of it. and everyday he brags about how he breaks something... and doesnt pay a dine for it. its kids like that that you just want to strangle. i pay for the parts on mine... and mine is a real head turner... lol, i love it

 

lol i am 13 and when i told my parents i wanted a 4 wheler they bought me a lawn tractor and said u will get all the money with this, and here i am[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

My parents bought my quad, but it was something that the family did together for a while, my dad is getting old now and cant really ride, so I enherited the raptor. If no one else in my family road quads, I woulda prolly had to work for mine. Since it was a mutual interest, and something we did, I see no reason to feel like a spoiled brat or whatever. I could see how you would be mad of people who brag about it to you, just to get under your skin though. Raptor is an awsome quad, try to get a deal on an exhaust/intake package when you buy your quad.
