Go with new cams and higher compression. I'm looking forward to someone modding their Raptor like the guys with the 660 powered MuZ bikes that are putting out 80+ HP!

Yes, it appears to be a win-win situation. For you and the rest of us wanting quality products!

Obviously I can not prove it now... well I could scan in the contract.... but I tell you what, give me your email address and you will be the first to see the pics of the first raptor to have a LRD pipe as soon as I get it back. I have no reason to make this up .....

Why would they spend $7000 plus to get a brand new bike when they could borrow one and only pay little pocket money for the cost of making the pipe. Which one would you choose, $7,000 or $100? (however much it costs LRD to make one exhaust system.)

I personaly dont think Predator is lying because i was talking to a guy that he was riding with this past weekend (Aerik) and he told me about the guy from LRD but at the time Aerik wasnt sure if he was going to go through with.

PS.Predator Good luck and im glad you got such a chance I would of done the same thing

Thanks, yea when the guy first came up and talked to me I wasn't sure if I wanted to give my quad up for that long..... I then decided that it was worth it

I am really excited about the whole deal, when the pipe is done they are going to port/flow the head, and do a valve job on it.... whats cool is I will have dyno's for each step.... anyways I am stoked... although the wait is going to be worse than when I was waiting to get it

Jaybo got the pics of our ride posted at www.sandbros.com under "sand lake ride" link right up top....... you'll have to check them out!!

Talk to you later

Brad
01' Raptor currently at LRD getting a pipe made and engine modifications
