Where's the warrrior?
 

The Raptor 350 is really just a Warrior anyway. Different look and seating arrangement. In a way, I don't think Yamaha put enough effort in the R350. I hate the way they just raised the seat and stuck the light between the seat and grab bar. It might help it handle a little better. (not the light but the seating.) It looks terrible. (rear light arrangement)

It looks like Yamaha is just improving current models with a face lift. It looks like Yamaha might have placed new plastic on the Beartracker to make the Bruin. They made no effort to lighten up the little 250. It's still well over 400 lbs. (457) while other 250's are much lighter. -- The reverse handle is more handy and it does look more like a current Yamaha now.
