Excellent!

If I knew it would turn out to be a hot spot for Raptor owners I would buy a domain name for it. Something like Raptor-atv.com would be good. I guess you could do like all the rest and put ads up in order to pay for the site name.

I've designed a couple of sites, www.metalcraft-ar15.com and www.wkracing.com so if you need any help, let me know.

We already have the Rapters here in Georgia. Every dealer around has had a few. I saw 2 (blk/wht) left at one dealer last week, probably gone by now. I just wish I could clunk out the $ for one myself!!!!

Man, where the heck are ours?!!!!!

2 Black and whites at one dealer? I sure hope they send 2 blk/white ones to my dealer in the first shipment since I'm number 2 in line for a white one.

It can't be long now boys!!!!!!

not to be calling anyone a lier but I called the yamaha dealer in Rome Ga just a minute ago and asked if they had received any of the first raptor shipments they said NO. I then asked if any dealers in Ga had again the NO..... they did say that they could be coming at any time... and we all know that doesn't mean anything..

man I wish people would quit getting my hopes up!!

Maybe he saw 2 wht/blk banshees through the window or something and thought that they were Raptors. Who knows?

The rollercoaster of expectation that we are all on sure stinks!

Bash, I saw your sites they are excellent, I also found a little humor in the supercross page with the ambulance on site (7 minutes from hospital) part. Since I work in a hosptial radiology dept. and any time some on wipes out good they always know me from riding with me on the tracks and trails. Ill let you know if i need any help on mine.

Hey bash, and other soon to be Raptor owners...I just purchased DVL9800U Digital Video-CyberCam , and since Im the first at my local dealer to get my Raptor, I "will" be making movies Immediately. My younger brother just got a 2000 Banshee, and its still stock. Im sure we will be eating up hours of video together. Jumping, dragging, racing etc etc. Should be fun, and I will get them up on a website, and post them to other sites right away. We dont have much "huge" jumping around here, but we have built some decent high speed jumps clearing 40 feet or so. And we have awesome trails, and drag areas along the river and old railroad beds. Should be some fun in the making. Ill keep you guys posted. Hopefully, we dont have to wait much longer. Later guys.

Try MOTIONS Yamaha of Marietta, or METRO cycles in Mableton. One of them even had an ad in the Cycle Trader saying that a few were left up for grabs. Good luck.
