Help! I have just read offroad.com's review of the Raptor and have heard some very discouraging info. about my quad! The statement said "This nimble feeling is a big plus for woods riding, where a big quad like the DS650 feels more like an overloaded garbage truck." Should I sell or get a dump bed and start making some cash? I have to say...just poking a bit of fun! We have a sense of humor don't we?

 

Was it overloaded with or without the rider?;}

Paul...if I get the dump bed...do you think I can make some cash transporting Kangaroos from high-danger atv riding areas?

 

The Ds felt over loaded because it was carrying a couple of broken raptors that it ran into when they got in its way or when the raptors tried to jump as far as the DS can w/o bending the axle/A-arm....& yes it was carrying GARBAGE. WE DO HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR.

 

Gary , where do they put the garbage on the yellow dumpsters? inside the frame under the fuel tank or on the seat?

In your dreams Dave.HA HA HA HA
just a little poke.It dose not matter what you ride. just go out and have lots of fun.
keep a lid on!!

 

Talking about Overloaded Dump Trucks where 300exSTER been.I really miss his Raptor cut downs.He must still be learning how to ride on the whoop sections.

 

yes I miss the Ol' 300Exster, those whoops are really a B:tch if you only have a foot of travel in your suspension. Im just glad he finally bought a Ds, for the longest time he was all stirred over a quad he didnt have. But atleast I only have to leave the trash at the curb, Not talk it and Not Ride it. LOL

 

Poor ol fellow 300exSter,I cant beleive he bought a Ds650 instead of a Raptor.I made the hugh mistake of bying a ds650 and I lost my shirt when I traded it in on a 400ex.The ONLY thing the DS is good for is the dunes.At least I didnt loose out on the 400ex,I got 5 grand for that bad boy and now I only owe around 1700 on the Raptor.C mon 300exSter!!!1We need to here your comments about the Garbage truck!!!!!!!!!Really though guys the DS really is a great duning machine but for the trails it sucks royally.If I lived where the dunes are Id still have my DS so there you have it.
