    Question 4th. gear in a raptor 80

    Hello out there,
    I am interested in adding 4th. gear to my sons raptor 80. I have heard it can be done using factory parts, as the older model 80cc quads, like the badger, had 4th. gear and used the same engine/transmission. Does anyone know anything about this?
    I wonder if yamaha deleted the fourth gear & related parts on the the newer ones, or if the parts are in there, and they just have something in the trans. or shifter that keeps you from getting fourth gear? My son is always over-reving that poor little engine in 3rd. gear!
    Thanks in advance for any info on this,
    Brian

    YOU DON'T NEED 4TH GEAR YOU NEED A BETTER QUAD I WOULD SUGGEST A KASEA OR HONDA TRX 90.

    Thanks for your opinion, Evan,
    however, information, not your opinion is what I am looking for!
    My son dearly loves his raptor, and has logged hundreds of trail miles on it.
    I am shure that there must be someone out there who can HELP me with this project.

    look up yamahas web site. Look in the parts area they will have a exploded view of both. this may help. Also check out the part numbers to see if they are the same. Im guessing the changes where made because the newer mini it heavyer and the older 4 speed was to weak. Just my 2 cents. hope this helps.
