In a couple days I am going to buy handguards and tires. I was hoping you guys can help me out. I was thinking about XC bandits. I have no idea for handguards. Please give me a list brands and likes and dislikes !!! 2001 raptor two days old . On the way!!!! pro design pro flow foam filter system w aluminum adaptor, dura blue axle posilock locknut, dura blue eliminator axle 2+2, ac swingarm skid plate, twist throttle, ac full chassis skid plate, shockwear kit, and pro design tether cord all from motoman I think they were pretty cheap! I going to race haresambles in south dakota. ps. and is there a radiator guard. THE RAPTOR IS PRETTY WICKED

 

I have the UFO handguards, and they fit like a glove, no lever trimming required.

As far as tires go, I'm running Holeshot XCT's, but am looking at buying either a set of Bearclaws or Spidertraks for mud riding.

I am also looking at replaceing the tires on my Raptor with some type of mud tire. Please keep me informed on what you buy. How large are you going? I would like to go as big as will fit under the fenders and clear the heel guards. Might even consider rearranging the heel plates in order to go larger. Thanks

My cuz got a raptor and run runs razr's on the back.. They go real good. But i like my shredders better on my warrior.

 

I have 22-11-9/23-7-10 RazR's on mine and I ran a harescramble last weekend in Columbia Mo that was mudy as heck. I didn't get to go but one lap because I broke my clutch perch on the start due to a little mishap with another competitor. I don't know how many hills and mudholes I went through that had other people hung up. The tires were awesome for traction and the height helped alot since most ruts were formed by 20 inch tires.
