Raptor 700R "First Test Result"
Before i bought my 700R i looked for Test Results on it, and couldn't find anything. You guys can reply to this thread as freely as you want, this is my honest opinion, and nothing MORE.. From the ground up the New 06 is awesome. It is lower than the older 660 which handles alot better and not as tipsy on the top, it doesn't raise up unwantedly as the 660 did, but if you know how to ride you can make this machine aim towards the stars in 4th gear. In a drag race it is an awesome machine. Yamaha "Claims" that the new Raptor 700R is the fastest "stock" ATV on the market today.... I will admit that fact also, once i got it broke in i called a few friends and wanted to find out if this is actually true.... I raced 3 of the fastest ATVs out there today, in stock trim, and not stock trim.. First is the one that most everybody wants to know about.. 700R vs Banshee.. from the line at take off the 700R ate the Shee alive, sorry 2-stroke and banshee fans but in stoke trim the shee doesn't stand a chance... Its farely close at the finish line at 300ft drag, on hard packed dirt, the 700R had about a 6 quad length lead... 2nd race is a Kawi KFX700. NO COMP, the 700R has a faster take off and pulls harder than any ATV i ever ridin.. And last was a Pred 500 with LTE pipe, same thing, ate it alive... Alot of people want the top speed of the 700R, on a 1/4th mile straight away slight up hill, next to my wifes Nissan. Top speed is 80mph on the dot. So this is my opinion, if you need any info on making a purchase desicion i will give you my opinion on it, you have to make your own chose..

good info! But if I could ask where did you find a stock shee to race? I didn't think there were any. How about against the 660?

I've seen a 700R, lid off, different sparky and power commander race against preddy with LTE's, CDI, airbox mods and they were trading wins. Once the 700R is piped with a full system, CDI, Power Commander and K&N with adapter, it'll be hard to touch, add a higher compression piston and cam, then you have a bonafied barn burner [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
