Hey guys,
I've put an ad in CycleTrader for my '01 Raptor, some of you might have seen it. I'm thinking that I'm asking too much because I have had no bites on it, so I would like your opinion. I know that on the eastern part of the U.S. you can find quads for pretty cheap (saw a 2000 'shee on ebay w/Duncan Racing motor - $3800) compared to here on the west coast (stock 2000 'shee, $4500), so keep that in mind. I bought the bike about 4 months ago from a dealer. It has very low hours. The first owner had been in the process of tricking it out when he got in a motorcycle accident and died from an I.V. infection. I bought it and finished putting the bike together. I have rebuilt quads in the past (this is my 4th) and so everything has been torqued down, etc. just like a shop would have done.

Here are the specs for it: GYT-R parts: radiator guard, rear brake reservoir guard, engine skid, billet throttle cover, billet oil/water pump cover, heal guards, gas cap, front bumper, aluminum frame guards, headlight guards. custom radiator hoses, Shockwears f&r, White Bros E-series, FMF Power Bomb, Graydon Proline nerfs, Renthal handlebars, front stainless steel brake lines, TrailTech computer with billet handlebar clamp (speedo, trip, miles, etc.), LoneStar +2 or +3 chrome a-arms (I'm not sure which, they came with the bike), Works tripple rate fronts w/rezzys, +2 ext. swingarm, chrome Durablue +2 axle, RAD Loc, SideWinder sprokets and chain (12t front, 40t rear), aluminum airbox without lid, has K&N filter, pearl black powdercoated frame, Skat Trak Edges on Douglas Black label rims, GBC Dune Tracker fronts on Douglas Black label rims, Dunlop KT331 fronts on Douglas Black label rims, and some stock parts. Everything is almost new. The tires still have nipples on them, and the wheels, nerf bars, etc. still had the price tags and stickers on them when I had bought the bike.

The price was $7300 obo, but after thinking about it, that is probably too much. So I have dropped it to $6900 obo. The bike is basically brand spankin' new, and I've only ridden it once because of school, job, etc. Let me know what you guys think.

 

Yes lower the price. Ive got $100. LOL

 

The one thing that you haven't said is that the transmission has been upgraded, 01 raptors are like selling HIV if you can't prove the gears have been upgraded...

 

The bike doesn't have the '02 gears because I haven't had any problem with the '01 tranny, and it doesn't have that many hours. I have heard off and on that people have been having problems, but it also probably depends on how you ride. I have some friends whose '01 Raptors have a lot of mods for duning and are running fine.
