Three years old and the stock tires don't even look half wore.

Na really I take it easy on this quad for the most part. Maybe 5 miles of pavement has been under this quad since I purchased it new. Mostly grassy fields blazing up to my parents and sisters house.
Some back dirt rode running but they are soft and loose.
I will put stock replacements back on when those are gone though just to look original. I am even contemplating putting the stock grab bar back on.

Your tires are only around half wore as well. How many hours do you have on your Raptor? 50-75?

I asked my dealer how many bad 01 transmissions they had seen. They claimed that everyone they had fixed had a bent shift fork from the rider jumping and landing with their foot on the shifter (they even had an example on the counter). Their story was that if you bend the fork the dogs no longer make complete contact and will eventually round off and break. The 02’s and later also include an upgraded shift fork.
Don’t know how much truth is in this story….Bill

What is it with you and tire wear Gary? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
In case you had forgotten, you posed me the same question once before, regarding the amount of riding time I put on my 01.
DC504,
As you can see, there are many of us here who do extreme amounts of riding on 01 trannies with no problems and a few that have had.
Everyone has done an excellent job of posting both sides of this issue without letting it get agressive. Very nice to see. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
