Customizing a Raptor


Recommended Posts

:blink: Hi guys

 

Just kind of curious if you've seen this done in a Raptor, I know I have heard of this in Banshees and 250R frames.

 

Could someone who knows what they're talking about help me get shit together, and suggestions for parts and fabrications I'll have to do.

 

Thanks a lot :)

oh its def possible but also very time consuming. installing an engine into a frame it was not meant for can be a difficult task. i have a cr500 engine in one of my banshee frames. it takes a lot of time lining up sprockets, fabbing engine mounts and makin a pipe. and you know the saying, time is money. do you have ready access to a cr500 engine? do you know anything about them? do you know anything about the raptor and its parts? i wouldnt have even considered putting the cr500 in the banshee frame had i not been very familiar with it. i would suggest thinking it over very carefully because once you start cutting the frame theres no turning back. deciding halfway thru the project that you dont wanna finish could cost you a little. however, if you decide to do this i would suggest asking some raptor guys about it. after all, this is a banshee site. i know from personal experience nothing about raptors, other than that they are slow, tall and narrow. lemme know what you decide to do.
