Yamaha Sponsor This Man!!

Thank You for Your review. Waiting for the dealer buying 1 for me and 1 for my Son. Will look for those lamp covers now. Very excited Thanks Again Brother 👍🏻

Yamaha was cheap with those headlights. Can’t wait to see you on the track. My boy is still undefeated in the drags. I still remember me and you going to sit on this quad before you bought it. Great video, love the attire and the microphone.

I just bought a 2020 Raptor 700r SE in Red and Gray and I’m loving it! Great review on it!

I got a 2019 base model raptor 700 and has been so great got 90 hours and 2200 miles just subscribed as well 👌🏻

Love the videos 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Bro the 2020 design is just so sick! Nice review btw!

Monster exhaust fci intake pcv Cuavo racing tune! I had to relearn the whole bike bc it’s that much of a difference. Unbelievable torque

I have a 2018 base model 700 that I bought second hand in Dec. of 2018. It is a very good machine. It had Houiser long travel A-arms and full FMF exhaust already on it from the previous owner. It did not have an aftermarket intake or fuel programmer on it when I got it. Maybe the previous owner took those 2 mods. off before he sold it to me or maybe just had not added the other "2" of the big "3" yet. With just a full exhaust It popped and died just off idle or when I would blip the throttle sometimes to downshift smoother. (otherwise it ran fine) I figured the air/fuel ratio was not right because it lacked the other 2 of the big 3. So I bought a factory muffler off the internet and put it on in place of part of the FMF system but I kept the FMF Powerbomb head pipe on it. Now the popping and dying just off idle issue is way much improved. The power seems the same but it is way quieter which is good for where I mostly ride. I also added the Houiser +1.25 anti-vibe steering stem and Flexx bar combo. because when I got it the factory handle bars were a little tweeked and the factory steering stem was twisted from an apparent crash before I got it. Now the handlebars are higher and more comfortable, and have the "shock elastometers" (basically skateboard truck bushings). I had to get a +2 inch longer throttle cable for the taller steering stem and bars. I enjoy riding it and I spend a lot of time with the front wheels off the ground. The Raptor is a wheelie machine. One day I might get better shocks than my base model shocks. The previous owner did have shocks with piggy back reservoirs on it but took them off before I got it. The only real thing I still need to address is my rear brake caliper rattles some because the rubber bushings on the sliders attached to the rear swing arm must be worn out. The brakes work fine otherwise. I know this turned into a long post but I figured I would share some of my Raptor 700 ownership experience. Overall a very good machine and in my opinion with all its performance capabilities especially including having a reverse gear make it the best "all around" true sport quad. Shane

Great Review,on a great Machine! looking to get one in 2020!

great in depth review. just placed a down payment on the new 21 700r se ...and i can not wait!!!!

Bike still looks sweet! I'm a 700 lover myself, on my 4th one, brand new 19' in the shop with bad fuel pump, I know bad luck! 65 years old and ride street bikes also.

Parents are finally gonna get me one they were a little scared at first but now I’m getting one sometimes this year

Great review mate! 👌 I've got a touch over 100 hrs on my 2016 myself. Only issues I've had is a noisy chain roller and I can't keep the stock shifter tight on the splined shaft, all very minor. I've got an Empire full exhaust on mine and love it, it's loud and deep! 👌💪

Did you ride it hard in those 100 hours?

I have the exact quad and my carrier just went out on me yesterday. Front brakes factory rear I’ve changed twice. Try 20” ITP mud lights on the back. I don’t ride track, all out woods race and air. They give you excellent forward traction but allows the quad to slip on turns I guide mine just by changing weight on the foot pegs. Re coated exhaust once.

Had mine for 4 years. I weigh 130lbs so as a lighter rider my only complaint is when riding it hard it’s a bit top heavy and tipsy. Obviously that’s a given with the more narrow wheel base compared to a 450 to better fit trails but other than that perfect. Also stock tires suck imo. Edit: Great tip on lubing the chain before every ride i do the same.

I have a sparks racing exhaust on my 700r se and love it sound & everything

This look amazing 💪 👍 soo sweet 😍
