This is so nuts to see you riding a Raptor. I can’t wait to see more vids and videos what you think about the machine! That color combo is sick too! Congrats man! 👌🤘
Had a 2006 raptor 700 for 9 years. Had stage 2 cam, ported head, full HMF, tuned on a Dyno tunes for power commander, air intake. Had to sell it to a guy in Evansville to pay for a transmission for my dodge diesel, that I no longer have. Stupid diesel trucks! Had 2 yfz's for a couple years. Sold them due to change in job. Now have an Rmax 1000 sport.
I bought a Raptor 700 new in 2018(gray and black base model with no add-ons). It had torque for days and pulled like a dirt bike, but was kinda iffy on trails(liked to pull you into pockets and holes, but maybe that's just how it is riding on four wheels). It sat in my shed near the woods a long time after that and apparently had a mouse nest in the airbox when I traded it in on my motorcycle.
Surprised u don’t got a 700xx I just got one a few months and did the big 3…barkers exhaust,intake, and programmer and it’s a monster..the irs takes some getting used to but it’s soo comfortable
They are saving the best for last .. to many bikes being released not enough testing time. Who knows what will break on these bikes . they built to last like the bikes from the early 2000s . We will see how long these new electric peace of shits last.
Awesome new ride man. I agree about luggin it around and vice versa, people on the internet always say the YFZ wont lug around the trails but I disagree highly. once i put a vortex on mine it very rarely stalls at all.
The raptor is a great quad...even in stock form. Yeah, they are alil more narrow than a 450, but the rest of the dimensions are very similar. The power curves are completely different. The weight everyone talks about...less than 20lb difference
First time finding this channel and I absolutely love it, I was interested in getting a raptor and now I'm definitely getting one, and love your attitude and humor. 10/10 video
Yep same here you can ride them slower in higher gears but they definitely dont like being lugged especially if you need that instant power on the fly.
We told ya you would prob love a 700 when we rode at Haspin last year ! Welcome ! If we ever get ya to Interlake to ride I’ll be WAY in the back but loving it ! See ya soon !
I definitely agree with you saying that the stock 700 power is kind of comparable to a stock 400 which is surprising but very true. My 330ex will keep up with both in stock form but the 700 pulls away from us on topend but I’m almost neck and neck with the 400
So I noticed that you later responded to another individual that after riding it more, it's barely a comparison. How about choked when you said it was comparable to a 400 and I was like nah wait until he rides it a little bit more and then jump back on a 400. I dyno pull stock machines on my channel and again after they are modified. The 400s that I've dynoed only have around 30 horsepower and a stock Raptor has about 45 which 15 horsepower is huge on a 400 lb machine. 700 and its stock form is untouchable. The only machines that can really beat it stock for stock is... Well nothing lol. Glad to see you added a Raptor to the Wolfpack. Be safe my brother. Hopefully we can ride again soon!
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL my fiance conclusion is the power curve is really similar the raptors is just raised 15 hp haha so the delivery is similar of the two stock machines however the raptor does have alot more grunt! Especially now that I've added the big 3 🤫 haha we should ride again this winter down south 🤘
@@BrewerOffroad hey i dont know much about the raptor, can you enlighten me on what is the big 3, my guess are mods right? but what are those 3, cheers
Oh hell yes! now you are part of the cool club! haha just kidding.. congrats! I know you will love it. i am trying to come to Oklahoma this year(fingers crossed) we will have to get all the Raptors lined up for a cool photo!
I love my raptor it never gets old riding it. I have 2020. My brother rode mine an had to get one. An got a good deal on a 2013 with the big 3 an A arms an extended axle . It will do 75 mph no problem.
I’ve had raptors since the day the 700 came out, they are awesome. Only think Yamaha could change is sell one with an improved header and exhaust, a stock Raptor is boring and kinda sounds like crap, the machine truly is another animal once you install a full header and exhaust
Congrats Man! I was supposed to get that same one two weeks ago but the dealership ended up getting me the white & blue one. I’m tryna be like you and Pete and make videos I just gotta cop a go pro and a helmet mount. Keep up the great content.
Nice I was always wondered what you would think of the 700 seemed like it would fit your riding style better IMO. I put an an extended axle in mine and it’s planted now, as well as the big 3 with hotcam 3. Excited to see where this goes.
Cant wait to see the build! I own a 2021 and they are blast to ride, however they are so slow in stock form lol. Everyone makes the 700 seem like its so fast when its definitely NOT that fast at all in stock form. Lots of torque but not much get up and go. Hoping the big three will change my mind, or i’ll have to trade it for something faster. 😂
Yep my raptor is almost stock an im pretty used to the power. My brothers raptor has the big 3 an the power is between the two is night an day its like going from normal hemi challenger to hellcat lol. All thoe people that have never ridden a raptor allways come back an say god dam that thing is scary fast lol.
Nice! Congrats on the new whip I’m sure it’ll get its use out there! Hoping to get myself a new yfz soon and am from southern indiana where would you recommend going to get one? Can’t find any anywhere near me
@@BrewerOffroad that's what I'm talking about. Excited to see what you can do on one of these bad boys. I have a older carb model yfz450 and everyone tells me to try a raptor but I'm stuck with the 450 lol. Maybe this will be enough to get me over the fence lol
Are you getting nerf bars with the heel guards? Just asking cuz it looks like the people you bought your raptor from didn’t give you the Special edition heel guards but some people take them off anyway to put a full heel guard nerf bar set.
@@BrewerOffroad oh ok makes sense, thats kinda like one I put on hold. Same colors as yours but they apparently shipped it without shocks so I’ve been waiting since October for them to come in. Im gonna actually go in today to check the status because they told me they were expecting them March which is almost here. Crazy they were back ordered for that long. Look forward to seeing more vids bro! 🤟🏻
Welcome to the dark side brother in my opinion for all around sport quad it don’t get no better then a raptor. Glad to see you liked it once you get more comfortable on it you will really like love it I know I love mine! Just as far as a fci intake and pc5 will open her up a lot then you will start really feeling the power and how it begins to Separate it’s self into a class of it’s own! Awesome quad and awesome video buddy! Keep us updated on the yfz
Lol heck yeah man that’s awesome that pretty much all you need Especially in wooded areas like this video it’s even enough in the dunes for most people I’m sure lol
I bought a 2022 raptor for my first sport atv since I was a kid. I'm notused to the power and It always feels like it want to wheel for me haha. My old Yamaha 4zinger had much less torque lol.
Alot of people say "spirited" riding for the first 10 hours so don't ride super easy but don't ring its neck. Others say it's ready from the factory. I did two heat cycles of 1/2 riding where I got the engine up to temp and then let it cool down completely again, while riding. Then since then I have done 6 or so hours of spirited riding and then threw in on the dyno for tuning so I'm ringing it out now haha
Just messing with ya bud love the raptors I have yfz and ltr 450 but really like the raptors and the whole reverse thing hahah god bless and keep making videos 🤜✌️
I live in new england im torn between one of these or a polaris sportaman 850 i have powerlines and trails here to ride on but hownis the raptor is snow is it good? Update I ended up going with the 2023 sportsman 850 ultimate trail feel as if it will be the best considering amount of snow we get also my first quad so I'm very excited
I upgraded from an Adly 450s hurricane to a 2022 Raptor 700R SE and it was the best decision I have made in a while. Even if it cost me 12 grand. Does anybody know where I can buy the tires that come with the raptor? I really like the profile, since its not super loud on asphalt while being grippy enough for offroading. I cant even find the model on the maxxis website.
Tell me more about the bumper and heel guards it didn't come with that it shpuld have as and SE? I'm literally about to pick up the same quad in a week from my local Yamaha dealer and I want to make sure I'm getting everything I paid for with the SE. any advice appreciated!
Says he’s not going to get crazy and then hits three insane jumps. The guy is humble, we can give him that.
This is so nuts to see you riding a Raptor. I can’t wait to see more vids and videos what you think about the machine! That color combo is sick too! Congrats man! 👌🤘

More coming soon!
@@BrewerOffroad That's what we like to hear🔥
That Raptor 700R is in whole other league than an 400cc sport quad be it Honda or Suzuki!
I agree after more time on the machine but first impression was that of a 400ex if I'm being honest. Didn't take 15 minutes for my mind to change tho
Lol I like how u said 700 dollars se 😆 🤣 😂 nice video buddy 👍
The only time the raptor feels heavy is side hills, especially while turning, other than that I prefer the raptor! I own a yfz 450r also
So far I would agree I still prefer the yfz for now we will see as time goes on tho!
Most important is taking care of dog. Raptor great machine. Bullet proof and crazy top speed..
2005 660r red white, brand new. This brings me back.

toss the factory heal guards and get the full Alba nerf bars that have the heal guard already built in much cleaner look.
Definitely plan to get some nerf bars not sure what brand yet!
I'm hoping to pick up one someday. Right now I got a 20-21 Rubicon that I was thinking about trading it in on a new raptor

Global Powersports Wheels
Looking into a new ATV. What would you recommend?
Depends on the riding you like to do and what your experience is.
You need to go back to the dealership and get your front bumper and heel Guard
They are sending them to me once yamaha restocks them
Nice quad….but let’s speak in that property!!! Plenty of acres for trail riding-
Nice ATV, and awesome video!!!!
I bought a 2022 raptor for my first sport atv since I was a kid. I'm notused to the power and It always feels like it want to wheel for me haha. My old Yamaha 4zinger had much less torque lol.
Those have always felt twitchy and a bit top heavy to me in stock trim.

Alot of people say "spirited" riding for the first 10 hours so don't ride super easy but don't ring its neck. Others say it's ready from the factory. I did two heat cycles of 1/2 riding where I got the engine up to temp and then let it cool down completely again, while riding. Then since then I have done 6 or so hours of spirited riding and then threw in on the dyno for tuning so I'm ringing it out now haha

Pete hager has some nice snow videos on his raptor! I think the limit for most sport quads is 6 inches of snow
Which 400 are you referring to?
Honda 400ex, after riding it more it's barely a comparison
I wish they’d put this engine in a dual sport
AWSOME buy man. I own both machines also. The raptor is my favorite for most of my rideing. Anyway, where is all the gangs little Sahara footage?
Its pretty😁
