    Dude no way I used to own a Raptor 660 and I had the same CNC blue levers and the same Tusk front bumper! You sooooo have to get the ALBA racing full nerf bars, I had a set on mine they were about $220 and some change but so freaking worth it, that was the single best upgrade I ever got for mine, the original foot pegs ain't got nothing on the ALBA ones, great video man!

    Don't need any lock tight on clutch springs the spring its what holds tension on the bolt making it so it cant come out, also lock tight only works if there's no trace of oil and bolts that live in oil need oil when torquing down because if there put in dry once they pick up oil it can make them loose so in the future all you need to do is make sure the the bolts have a little film of oil and torque to spec and they will never fall out. I've never ever had an issue

    Pretty cool brother. I was waiting on the next 660 video. I get amped up for the 660 videos since I have one myself. I ditched the goofy headlights and got some led pod lights from tractor supply and made custom brackets for them and wired them into the factory harness with the factory plugs. Holy sheep shit they are bright and better than stock. I also fabricated my own bumper cuz I didn't like the aftermarket styling and prices lol. That thing is coming along well my friend.

      @@StupidFastJohn I don't have Instagram or any of the social media bullshit. My 660 wasn't and isn't a build it was just fixing the pile of shit I got. I'm still dealing with the reverse rev limiter and other things. It's just something I brought back to run again and she rips.

    This may not be what your video is about, but there are only a few of you doing anything with Yamaha Raptors. I have been looking for one piece of info for a very long time - that's it. Do you know what the dimensions are for the main frame tubing - the outside (diameter) appears to measure 1.125 (1 1/8). I can not measure the thickness (gauge) of that tube. Does anybody know what the thickness or gauge is on the main frame? Can be Raptor 660 or 700. Thanks

    • @StupidFastJohn
      @StupidFastJohn  3 роки тому

      Jet the pilot up, thats normally what causes a lean idle. Mine gets a little hott too but the coolant temp never gets over 170-180 which is fantastic for these. Running about a 35 pilot jet 👊 (also oil does help cool a tiny bit but not much. Focus more on radiator/coolant temp then oil, the oil tank is more for the "dry sump system" of the engine).
