Here is my proof that I actually own one. Sorry for the clarity, it's an old scanner. I hope everyone enjoys my pics. The Raptor is NOT tippy, the pictures of it on two wheels was me just messing around and should only be done by experienced riders. (thanks Bash)

cool!

You know though, they are going to say that a big portion of the pictures show it bicycling (side 2 wheels), so go ahead and tell them that it was on purpose.

How tall are you? It looks like you are on a Blaster.

Speaking of bicycling, are the front wheels out as far as the rear? or do you ride small circles on the two side wheels like my banshee used to do?

After seeing your pics and thinking about them, I had the same questions some other people have. How tall are you and where is your helmet? Like the other helmet post, I am just giving you a hard time! Very nice ride you have there.

There still seems to be some conflict between/among the various magazine reviews and what owners are saying so far. I sure hope all of this is soon cleared up once and for all. Like a top speed of 71mph, makes no sense. And acceleration data from ATV Sport showing the Raptor a second behind the DS. We need to know the truth!

I am 6'3" The quad doesn't seem small at all. My LT250R seemed really small. I knew not wearing a helmet was a bad idea, I was only putting around in first gear. But I did put it on after that when We shot some video of me jumping and riding 3rd gear wheelies across the yard. I wish i had a video capture card so i could post some video.
