Hey just wondering if anybody makes front fenders (like the ones on the DS650) for the raptor if so where can I get them? I think they would look sweet not to mention cutting down on the amount of mud I end up eating. Thanks

No, Don't do that. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] The only thing that looks odd on the ds is those front fenders over the tires. If they had raptor type front fenders on the ds it would look much sweeter. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing the ds. It is a kick a$$ quad, I just don't like the front fenders. IMHO the raptor front fenders are way cooler.

I agree. Those fenders look pretty stupid on an otherwise good looking machine.

The DS owners themselves must not like the fenders either, because they always take off those lame looking things immediately! A very poor solution to an otherwise (albeit HEAVY) nice machine. I just can't get over the weight issue on these things.

kodiak is just wanting to rip s@#! up and isn't worried about being pretty while doing it. so don't be too rough on him.

Kodiak, I don't think anyone makes them. I personally think it looks cool. The best thing to do is fabricate some braces like they have on the DS650 and find some front or rear plastic off a Yamaha to cut and make your own plastic mud-guards. Might cost some money but would give it a special look...

Doesn't Bombardier offer them in black? All you would have to do is make the bracket to hold them on... just a thought.

Good luck!
