Thats a sick combo, how are you liking the xcr's i am thinking of geting some for my raptor, but i heard they don't last very long?

[Racing Rice]

Very nice!! I need to get my Rappy some new shoes some day.:macho

[TRX23rider]

nice raptor!!!

[Bigun55]

That is a NICE raptor. Man i love them rims. Im gonna buy me some in a couple of months

[mdidonne]

Thankx Guys, I do appreciate the compliments. I just installed them and didnt get the chance to take her out. Plus its been so freaking cold here in the Burgh. Im getting ready to order my +2 +1 Burgard A Arms, +2 Stem, and Peps ZPS front shocks. Then I think its race time. I hope to get this done by the start of race season.

Thankx Again,
Mike

good choice with the burgards, i have the +2 +1 standard and i havent had any probs. wish i had pep shocks, im rocking works, but a HUGE increase in handling capability to say the least!

[mdidonne]

do you have to reem out the spindles on the Raptor for the new a arms ?

[tater_kamik]

its not a big deal. it took like 15-20 minutes total with some cutting fluid and the right bit. any good shop should be able to do it

Might better invest in a steering stabilizer now. With those differnt offset front wheels there will be a lot more bumpsteer. I race into the same problem with mine. They add about 1.5 inches of width but a lot more bump steer. The stabilizer will help it out a lot though.

Sweet Raptor!:cool:

[tater_kamik]

yes, i had to ream out the spindles

[mdidonne]

Dam I just looked at this, I have the front tires on backwards, look how the tread is facing. LOL, fix that when I get home.
Just also put the GYTR jet kit in it with mod quad plate w/ k&n filter, runs so much smoother and efficiently. Can't wait till we get some decent weather here to go riding.

Also, how all the pros run them that I've seen.

[mdidonne]

I was also thinking about buying them xcr's. Please get back to me on how they wear. Also how good they hook up.
