Raptor 350

[Blueoval]

I am new to the forum and I am wanting to buy a ATV in the next month or so and I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the Raptor 350's? I use to ride as a kid and now I really want to get back into it again. I am not looking for a all out power house just something that is fun to ride with a bunch of my friends. Also if I do want to make it a little faster is there a decent aftermarket for perfomance products yet?

Please let me know your thoughts, Thanks!

i would go with the honda over the yamaha, but if you must have yamaha, you might as well spend the extra cash get the 660 version.

400 ex ,to play around on,
youll probably find a used one for cheaper and thay make sooo much aftermarket parts for em.

but for a little more idsave for a 450

any one is good

I've got a raptor 350, and I love it. I ride my brother's 660 sometimes and am glad I got a 350. If any of your friends have one, ride theirs first. There are already a lot of hop-ups for the raptor 350. It is the same motor as the warrior, but feels totally different when riding. You feel like you sit much higher.

I would go with a 400ex because they are a lot faster and you can pick up a used one pretty cheap! See if you hop up a raptor 350 and then will probably be as fast a stock 400ex. But if you a die hard yamaha fan go with the raptor 660.

400!

if you are wanting a raptor then you mite as well spend the extra few hundred dollars and get the bigger 660 its worth it i dont have one to prove it to you but im telling you ive rode the 660 its awesome and i also know you arent looking for all out power but this is all out power for only a few hundred bux more then the 350 its only opinion tho do what you want!!! my advice try to ride them bth first and see which feels better for you and which you like bette yorself!!!

Mhmhmm The Raptor 350 is basically the Warrior with a new chassis and suspension and other stuff. But add some more money and get The bigger Raptor 660

There is a huge difference between the 350, the 400EX and the 660. It depends on what and where you ride. All of the bikes are great for trails, and woods. If you cant get the 660 go for the EX, I own a 660 and ride 350's and EX's on a daily basis. Its kinda hard to get any form of wheelie going on the 350, while the EX and 660 will go right up. Id say take them all out for a ride and decide then.

i got a 350 and i like it for my first machine, it is comfortable to ride and it will keep up with the 300 and the 400ex
