I'm doing a lot of research on suspension upgrades for my Raptor 660. I want to install extended a-arms with elka suspension and an extended swingarm with an elka shock. With the products I've been looking at this will cost me a little under 3k. I am beginning to wonder if this would be worthwhile. I could either have a custom ride, or put that money towards a new quad such as a raptor 700. I figure I could get $4500 for mine and a 700 will cost close to 8k out the door. The only drawback being I'd have a stock quad again.

In this situation, what would you guys do?

 

buy a used 700 with the suspension already on it.

 

I'd go with the second option. Sell the 660 and buy a 700.

 

Shop around, the 700R shouldnt end up costing you that much OTD unless you're looking at sticker w/ fees and taxes. I realize CA prices are higher than most in the country, but they're selling for mid 6's before taxes all over the midwest and east coast.
