I got an offer to buy my bruin last week, and after about 2 seconds of thinking about it...I jumped on the offer.

I have had the idea of a Raptor in my head for the past few months, but with the recent purchase of my RZR...those plans were put on hold. Well, now that the bruin is gone, I had the extra room in the garage and an excuse to buy a new quad! lol


Here it is:

It is a brand new 07 Raptor 700R GYTR edition. It was a leftover 07 model at the dealership, so I got it for an awesome price ($5999)...it had 0 miles on it, and wasn't even prepped yet. I'm not a huge fan of the color, but for the price...I couldn't pass it by.







and with the other toys:



I'm still going to hang on to the wolverine for the 4x4 capabilities, but I probably wont be spending a whole lot of time on it. I used to think the wolvy was fairly quick, well...that was before I rode the Raptor. I cant even explain the difference, this thing stock has so much more torque and pulls so much harder that its like stepping up from a bicycle to a Yamaha R1.

It is all stock right now, but I will have some new wheels and tires by this weekend (ITP SandStars on SS112s chrome wheels). After a while, I will be adding the big 3 (pipe, fuel controller, and intake) but I'm in no rush...Its going to take a while to get used to the power as it sits now.

Just thought I would share,

Kyle

 

Nice looking raptor- Congrats

 

Sellin out on us eh.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] (JK) A friend that we ride with has a Raptor 700 and that thing has some crazy sick power.

Now you have to get un-lazy and shift gears again.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

congrats on the score.

 

you''ll def, love your raptor, i have an 07 se raptor 700 in orange and black , have had it a year, and zero probs, just but 300 plus miles on it a couple weeks ago on the trails in wisconsin. They are a awesome ride. Wow, that thing is really clean, not for long i''m sure, have fun . I am meticulous about keeping mine clean after a ride, and mine hasn't been that clean since a bought it

 

I'm not a real fan of sport quads but that is a sweet ride. I wouldn't mind giving her a whirl. It may change my mind.

 

any pics with the new wheels

 

what is different about the GYTR edition?

 

nice, the color isn't bad, it will turn brown as soon as you ride it....

 

I just picked up the wheels and tires today, but I'm at the hotel now ( at the dunes) so I won't be able to post pics until Sunday.

The GYTR edition has different graphics, the polished gytr front bumper, and gytr heel guards...I think thats it, but I could be wrong.

I think the white plastics will hold up good actually, I'm pretty much only going to ride it in the sand. For mud and that type of riding, I will ride the wolverine or RZR.

 

Nice Raptor...along with the others.
