what performance and handling upgrades are recommended for a raptor 350

 

a lot of people are saying an exhaust but im not sure??

 

prolly a pipe, jets, air filter and the whole air box thingy, for handling maybe better shocks, wheels and tires to make it wider.Hope that helps

 

thx

 

TIRES! The stock ones suck, then your usual stuff, exhuast, intake, jets. When you do get an intake spend the extra money and get one with the adapter plate, like the ones from pro design, the stock replacement K&N is a POS.

 

Oh yeah for handling, the first thing is to set up the suspension for your weight, adjust the sag. You need spanner wrenches for that, your locla dealer should have them. Wider is better, so a set of wider rear tires would help, then you can get an extended axle. +2front arms and shocks are next, but thats ALOT of money.

 

What Brand/type of rear tires would you recommend for the Raptor 350?

 

Im gonna order kenda klaws, ive been searching around for a while and from what i have heard/saw, they seem to have the best bite in just about anything. I rode a banshee with them on and it was hokking up in mud, and if you ever rode a banshee you'd know thats something hard to do.

 

Thanks, I just got my raptor but it was the first thing I noticed was the rear tires. Engine performance on trails can be dealt with by experience and downshifting but tires are something that really stand out. Thanks...

 

Yeah the stock dunlops blow, that tippy feeling your getting is from those tires, the sidewalls are weak and they give. Have fun with the rappy.
