Man that sux, i thought my troubles were bad but man, make sure you put EVERYTHING stock back on or into the motor or i bet they dont warrenty it.

But get this, JUST got my warrior put back together and everything is FINALLY running right, Took it out for a 2nd test run and BANG blew the damn rear tire, Great just got it running and now this, well i take it over to the tire place a few miles away and left the rims and rubber there and the guy told me he would order my new ones and take the old rubber of and put the rims inside so the WOULDNT get stollen, Guess wat he forgot and the rims got stollen, so here i sit with a new beefy quad and no damn tires or rims now! GRRRR

i don't know if your serious about not revealing your mods...but that sure would be helpful to the rest of us. i'm racing mine in GNCC's and take keen interest in the similar conditions were riding our machines.

specificaly i'd like to know:
-did you do the cam mod?
-did you change the flywheel..what weight?
-did you eliminate the oil resivoir?
-do you have a high comp piston?

There's always gonna be gremlins, no matter what you ride. Like I told you earlier Pudl, it's just nice that you have warranty, and also some time before the scrambles start. Get 'er fixed, we'll be seeing you at the track. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] They're all good!

Wish you the best of luck with Yamaha and its warrenties. I think most of us 01 Raptor guys have lost all faith in Yamaha understand the concept of the word.

Im with you Ward, I have heard an ear full of horror stories with so-called warranties.
