In stock trim the Raptor is very well tuned for an atv, but some people want their atv tailored-made for better enjoyment. How much was it worth to make your Raptor fit like a glove...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

01 GSX-R750 Blue/White (stock) 1/4 mile 135.6 @10.26 sec[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I have enjoyed mine just as it is. Its going to remain a stocker. My previous ride for the sport side was a honda 300EX so the Raptor is a big improvement over it. So far as money goes it was the purchase price plus some oil, oil filters and a Uni air filter. Chet

Why the hell would i ever want to think about that. too f'n much.

Here's an idea. Why don't we pick two people with the most insightful/helpful post everyweek and everyone send them a dollar each. or through an aftermarket company, apply the total to a part they may want/need. This will encourage helpful posts. I would be prepared to be the first to test this completly democratic process.

i'm in desperate need of a rear ELKA piggyback triple rate. I plead to the good sense of you fine folk and I know you'll make the right decision. Uhm change is fine.
