hey guys i was lookin around and i found out that yamahas comin our w/ a raptor 350.. i think its to replace the warrior, what do you think of it, ??

I think they dressed it up nice but I also liked the more rugged utill type look of the warrior, and I think it needs more performance updating than looks.

Does anyone know what was changed if anything in the suspension or engine? It does look like the old header pipe doesnt it.

Yes this was already posted in another category,there's a link there for it. No changes to the motor,the suspension is better,and its 24lbs lighter.

Not to defend but the carb is a whole new thing therefore providing a few more horsepower than the Warrior.
Can't be the same engine can it?
Would like to go up against one with my Warrior.
Let's say a 2 hour race through the woods on a predetermined trail.
Any takers?

lol .. exact same engine.. just supposedly better suspensoin.. and i guess carb since u just said so

[RideOrDie125]

the dimensions are slightyl different, its got the same mm carb just a bsr type, and the rear suspensionis different, none adjustable, idk how that is better, and the front is the same...i suppose its only better because its lighter....i dont expect to see many of those out on the trails...it doesnt attract me very much right now

If you look at some of the magazine reviews out there you will find there are alot more subtle changes then mentioned here. I agree with most people that the machine could have got a whole revamping but the changes that were made were in the right direction.
