i have another question. i have heard from some people that raptors tend to flip easy is this true?? just curious cuz it looks like im gettin one soon.

 

As far as over backwards yes, It has gobs of power & when it hooks you better be ready. A +2 or +3 swing arm will fix that, Or a wheelie bar!! LOL!!.
As for it being tippy, I haven't noticed it being that way.

 

It will flip and hurt you if you can't handle it, let's just leave it at that![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
"TOID"

 

I have a gut feeling in my mouth when my Raptor is about to go over. My teeth come loose and I know its time to let off the throttle.

I carry an extra tube of goldbond so its really no big deal to put my teeth back in securely.

Just look at the icon [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]. If I were you id just flip the rear wheels (if raptors can do that) or get wheel spacers.

 

velociraptor,

LOL,

Yes, it is and it helps soothe the sensitive skin in my mouth from all the chaffing that I endure on the Raptor when I am about to flip. With less chaffing my teeth remain more secure and therefore I can go farther before the teeth move right before the flip.

stock, piped, or heavily modded it will flip over backwards with ease. A swingarm extension is a must.

 

Raptor wheels are the same as warrior wheels but they're already flipped around.
One plus is the front tires will last much longer. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Looks like Velocityraptors (icon) could use some of Chets chaffing cream for his teeth as well [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Any bike will flip if you push its limits.

The raptor is more prone to flipping because it is very tall as well as a little on the narrow side stock.
This is not really the problem because the rider can adapt his riding style to compensate.
The main problem is that with all that power, she can easily deceide to ride you for a change.
Thats if you consider having loads of power a problem.......NOT!
