Makes me feel proud I payed $300 for my 200x and have only put maybe $100 in it...works perfect.
Bought the wife's LT for $400 and I have $300 in it....works perfect
They are not the fastest, nor the best looking, but I have just as much fun, and more $$$$$ [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

when i think of sh!tty raptors, i think of you.....i mean raptors that are not reliable. and that comes back into the idea that...the more you modify the original motor, the less reliable it becomes. Maybe on your next quad you dont mod it so much & you can buy 2 bikes for the price you put into one [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Sounds like a lemon. My 03 has been through a lot and it runs great.

Thats harsh dude. I've never really been a fan of raptors. They are nice, but I think they are the most over rated quad there is on the market today..
Your best bet would be to fix it so it's up and running and then sell it..You will be out some money because there is no way you are going to get that all back, but that kinda stuff happens.
Cut your losses and upgrade to a new bike before she dies on ya again

Good-luck Bro
