Default Raptor700 frame/plastic

Hey Guys I just a bought what I thought was a awesome deal on a very good looking Raptor7, but why arent the plastics lining up with the frame rails? I put pictures below I think and the quad runs great and is very nice but the left side of the frame looks scraped and the plastics dont look to be lining up perfectly...what do you guys think? Also he said he put the red hood on it because he didnt like all blue and his buddy had a spare red one but its does run great and very powerful!


How do I add pics?

thanks

Both my 06 and 07 raptors do the same thing and while annoying it isn't in itself a sign of abuse. In fact the body is rubbing the powder coat off the frame in one spot on the left side on my 07.

Look for evidence of abuse on the factory skid plate(plastic one under the motor and the other under the swing arm/rear rotor) and suspension. Also scuff marks on the side cases/subframe will give you an idea of how much its been ridden.


The one you are looking at looks good, from the pictures at least.

Good luck!
