Default 2009 raptor?!

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>Originally posted by: Entomber Different strokes for different folks. If I wind up with an 09 I will be looking for an 07-08 front grill. Screw the speedo, riding an atv is not like a car that distraction can cause lots of accidents.</end quote></div>
Hopefully the grill will mate up with no problem. I totally agree on the distraction in reading the speedo, I've looked down at my speedo on my Grizzly one time on a trail, will never do that again, almost hit a tree trying to read the numbers [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

The vapor comp is irreplaceable. Besides it giving you more info than a fortune teller, it saves your highest speed and RPM, because you better not try to look down at a speedo when the trees are whipping past you! It is better to look down after stopping and see you were doing 70+!

I am sure the Yamaha display system is very limited and not worth it, plus I like the comment from bigned1904, you'll never see it after a bar upgrade.

09 would have been better by bumping up the compression, cam and not letting it fall on its face at 6300 rpm [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] But of course, they have to please the masses with it not being a race quad, quess that's why pistons and cams are such cheap fixes for those problems.
