Report 700R Engine/Drivetrain problems

[DieselBoy]

Have you had any engine/drivetrain issues with the new raptor 700?

i rode mine all winter and rode is alot this sping till i broke my wrist but my dad and brother have rode it some since and it has been prefect. it has about 60- 65 hrs on it

No, no problems at all with it yet.

The only problem my friend had was you can't pop start. so if you lock up the rear brake hardand stall you have use the starter button instead of just letting out the clutch and pop starting it....

^^^^not true, my battery was dead for awhile and that was the only way i could start mine, just pop the clutch in 3rd gear and it will fire up. Ive had mine since October and ride it hard and have had no problems at all.

I don't know... I know he stalled it a couple times and it wouldn't pop start when he was rolling....

can you adjust the idle on it? if so, that will help. mine on my 660 is pretty high for that reason

[Sick0]

I tell you one thing... On paper they maybe close as far as height and what not.... But there not even close when it comes to hanlding. the raptor feels like its a foot higher in the air....
