Default Raptor 660 Information

Just wondering if everyone is happy with there raptors. My dad is selling his old four wheeler and is buying a new sport atv. He said he is tired of eating my dust. Just asking if everyone could give all the info that they know about raptors. I would really appreciate it.

PS: Are they good in mud?

Great Quad. You are about to get a million responces on this post, I assume. But Ill tell ya first. Good suspension, good handling, good looks. Nothing wrong with it. Make sure he doesnt get an 01 because of transmission probs. Other than that, it is an exceptional quad.

I used to ride a friends piped/K&n/jetted 300ex before I bought my raptor, and even at 1/4 throttle the raptor was faster [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

plan is when my dad buys it I take it from him. I jut hope I can handle it. Im 14 and am a very experienced rider. Been riding since I was about 6-7. The first thing I rode was a polaris sportsman 500 I think kinda forgot. My friends that I ride with think I am absolutely crazy the stuff that I do.
Well back to raptors. I apreciate everyones help and keep those replys coming. I just wonder how mucha 2,500 dollar down payment will lower the payments?

Mitch,

I bought an 03 LE raptor about a month ago so far.... it been great, except last weekend the clutch felt like it was not fully ingaging when I put it into 1st gear it wasnt smooth, Im talking it in for the 10 hour maintenance, I let you know what they say.
