01 raptor vs. 02 raptor
#1
Hello, I just bought a 02 Raptor my neihbor has a 01 raptor.He changed the front sprocket to a 12 instead of the 13.We finally got a chance to race, and we were even exept for he was better at the holeshot.He says that the smaller sprocket slowed his bike down.I know they have a new tranny in the 02 and I read that everyone wants to upgrade to the new tranny.But why, if the first design is faster or is it?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

It does seem logical that the 02's are a tad bit slower than the 01's in forward gear, since they closed the gear ratio. I've heard there is a big difference in the reverse speed. Any truth in that??????? Never came across a 02 Raptor so I can't conduct a comparison myself. Proud owner of a 01 Raptor (660Restricted) model.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Man i dont understand the whole 01 and 02 Raptor thing.. Every one I talk to thinks that an 01 has an Advantage over an 02 in a drag race. But From my personal experience. I have seen my buddy Josh (BaD660) with his 02 Rappy put the woopin on some 01 Raptors even some with pipes and jet mods. I mean yea Josh is a lil ****. Only about 150 pounds or less and He rides his Rappy like he Stole it. But still. We all ran on a long asphalt road once and Josh's 02 was ahead of the 01 every single time. So I dont understand..
