yamahabanshee1999 Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 hi i have this raptor 686 with alot of shit on it(hotcam, airfilter, pipe,ect.) and i recently brought it to the shop and they sed my rocker arms are mashed and the decompression pin is stuck open. i was wondering if wen i got it fixed if it would be much faster cause right now it takes a long time to get to 5th and it barely beats a z440 and ive herd of guys with the exact same things mine has on it beat souped up yfzs and 450rs.

taldoc3 Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 you see fast, I am not dogging raptors some are fast but most are not, I had a raptor, but I did not come to the bansheeHQ website asking for help, I went to bluetraxx, cause them guys Know their 4-strokes, Hence we have the name bansheeHQ, and I believe the front page says "for all you BANSHEE fanatics that can't get enough" yamaha banshee1999 I was'nt dogging you, just making talk, if I could help I would Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malott 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 Fastoys I think you might have some doubters on how fast a raptor can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTOYS Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 Fastoys I think you might have some doubters on how fast a raptor can be. 411057[/snapback] Yep most of them see stock Raptors run and then think they are all slow. If i saw stock Banshees run all the time i would think the same . BUT not all Raptors and Banshees are the same when tweaked correctly!

hittintrees srh Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 (edited) dudes, I had a 686 craptor built by trinity( thats two strikes). AND IT SUCKED!!!!!!!!!! The f**ker never ran well. NEVER!!!!!!! And I spent/waisted more money one that damn thing(thats three strikes and your out!) than ive ever spent on the bansh. And It could'nt even compete with my shee. I guess the best thing you could do if you have craptor problems is to sell it for parts and buy a bansh. I hate talkin shit on anyones quad, but coming from someone who had a quad like that...... SELL IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

rocketboy Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 im sure you can make a raptor run fast, but its never gonna be realy fast IMO, put enough mone y and effort into and youl l have a somewhat quick but somewhat unreliable pos machine.lets face it a rapterd is a slug yamaha bastard child even built up, why invest in alky carbs, cams,pipes, head porting..etc, to make it something its not? its barely engineered enough to hold together in stock form if yo u wanna go fast you build a wicked 250r or a cub banshee.yo ucant make chicken salad out of chicken shit. people wh o do professional timed drag racing dont run raptors because it is int cost effective to extract the power out of one and it is usually getting its ass stomped by ported (especially stroked)2 strokes anyways .just my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
