      @@matthewtrent2019 That's not a fair comparison. If you modify a quad or any vehicle, it's not the same thing and not comparable anymore. If you modify a raptor I'm sure it would give a banshee a run for it's money. I like both machines, but they are completely different power plants.

    I love my 2006 700R Raptor its leaps and bounds better in every way then my always broke down money pit 2001 660 raptor. Iv taking my 700R to the tracks and screwed around and it handles the track very good I found and its very affordable to maintain aswell when I were this one out I will be buying another.

    Not enough love for the Bombardier around here. FYI the DS650 was available in 99', making it the first big bore thumper sport quad ever. "the largest powerplant in a pure sport was a 500". No. With 650CC 4-stroke and 12" suspension travel ( which is STILL more than any big bore sport bike today ) this bike was, and if you have one, is, one hell of a quad.

    I here ya there man, my brother blew is 660 up so he just got another one and gave that one to me, I just had to buy another bike for 700 bucks and take out the motor and put it in the other one. Love mine though its still stupid fast by my standards and for where I ride put its nice predictable power, and you can still stand it up really easy if you want to. But a banshee if you not used to two strokers I could really see that power band bucking you off lol. Still love to have one though.

    Raptor 700s are usually the ATV of your choice if you´re taller/heavier than the average joe. Raptors are pretty big - just like any other 700 (KFX 700, TRX 700 etc.). So no - you´re certainly not too large.

      raphael baptiste Raptor 700. It's a dual counterbalanced motor with lower compression and more durable bottom end. Not to mention it has less finicky valves. It has a lower RPM range but a less frequent service schedule. This equates to more time on the trails and less in the shop.

    even in 1st i find my self popping the clutch to get it in powerband in the woods on hills. u have to get use to riding 20mph or nothing. dont sound like much but 20 is alot on winding trails with trees close in to the sides. with my a-arms im inches form trees on both sides. once u get used to constantly clutching and shifting its the fastest bike of all my friends. a can am 800 cant beat it or a raptor 660. its just like getting used to an old car its only bettrer once u can drive it better.
