Sorry to burst your bubble, but both of those issues were on the first few months' production bikes, and both were resolved before I bought mine in Dec 05, more than a year ago.

Neither of those problems relate to cold starting problems- the fuel pump was a HOT start fix.

There are hunderds of 06-7 Raptor owners on other boards, and cold start problems are a virtual non issue.

LOL that's funny, why would I eat my words when I'm right and you don't even know enough about the 700R's to know what problems they have had and have not had?

As was posted the fuel pump problem was a few units at the very release of the 06 in Aug of 05
I got the first one out the door of a local dealership and they took care of the pump before I took delivery as did many others so it was never an issue for a lot of early 700R owners and the one's it was an issue for had it replaced under warranty.

Besides that wasn't even a cold start issue. I think you should quit while your ahead and instead of being a hater actually take the time to fully familiarize your self with the subject before you comment on it like you know it for a fact.
In this instance your wrong, it happens, be a man about it and move on [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Ive seen posts about cold start problems, more than once, theres no denying the facts. Just because its a different computer on the 700r than the grizzly doesnt mean it isnt a mechanical problem.

Hes having a cold start problem now, how can you deny that!!!!

So your saying you have to have first hand knowledge to know what the problem is?
Your SOL if you think thats the case.
