Thanks a lot 🙌

🤘🤘

Thanks 🙌

Haha I almost did the same thing, thanks!

🙌🙌

Thanks 🤘

I'm happy with it so far 🙌

Thanks, so far it seems like it adhered well and dried fine.

the 01 rappys have trans issues,try to find 02 and up.

Sounds like a good deal

I appreciate the word of caution!

What do you mean.I think mine is starting to act up not sure if that's the problem

@@anthonyhubbard4245 They just have a couple weak links in them, I don't remember exactly what it is with them but you should be able to find a youtube video on it or something I just know the 05 and older raptors had some issues with the gearbox

@@smokeybandit4910 that transmission is was only on the 01. 2002 and up fixed that issue

@@smokeybandit4910 Little bit of info here for the one's who don't know, or can't remember. It was on the 2001 model only. If you don't know how to tell a 2001 model from an 02-05 model, a dead giveaway is the remote reservoir rear shock and the square tube aluminum subframe that came on the 2001 models only. 02-05 came with heavier round steel tube subframe and had the reservoir mounted directly on the shock body. However, it is possible to run a 2001 model subframe and rear shock on a 02-05 model but you'd have to relocate the voltage regulator too as the voltage regulator on an 01 mounts at the tailight, and on the 02-05 models it mounts there on the frame where the remote shock reservoir mounts on an 01. Or you could just change the wire harness, but you'd have to change the CDI box too if you did that because the 01 models have a different wire harness and CDI box than the 02-05 models. With the way bikes get parted out & the way people hack & mismatch parts on bikes now days there's only 1 way to know 100% for sure which year model raptor you have & that's by looking at the 10th digit of the vin number as it identifies the year model. But just because a person's 10th digit might be a "3" meaning an 03 model, that doesn't necessarily mean that someone didn't swap an 01 engine with the weak transmission gears on it? Or maybe they swapped an 01 engine with the upgraded 02-05 transmission in it? Shit's confusing right😂? At that point the only way to know if you have an upgraded 02-05 transmission is by splitting the cases. The upgraded 02-05 transmission went with a 4 dog setup on the gears instead of the previous 3 dog found on the 01 model. And the updated 02-05 transmission gears have a groove cut into the ridges of the teeth to aid in oil lubrication of the gears. I hope all this refreshed some memories lmao😂.

Welcome 🤘

Oh mine same exact color too haha

Yea I have 1 raptor video listen to the big gun evo. Also remove all safety crap I did except low oil it will skip sparks. Took reverse rev limiter out, I do like 80mph tire spin in reverse😂 . Also clutch and brake safety bypass that crap. Any questions let me know or vice versa.

Haha dang that's crazy I picked this up for $1500, probably have about 2k in it total. Just installed a new clutch a couple days ago 🤘

After building mine it git stolen but I gave it my all put a bounty on quad was found 3 days in Worcester Mass. My boys found it. haha. Hell no i put way too much work into it. They crashed it , gotta fix AGAIN! Nice Quad Nice work

Definitely Listen to my exhaust quickly. Its bored tho, stroked 686? forgot

🤘🤘

I'm happy with it so far, can't complain for how cheap it was. Thanks a lot 🤘

So far I've ridden it a lot and still looks great. I wasn't expecting perfection, with proper sanding and prep this paint is pretty durable.

I think you are referring to the parking brake

🤘🤘

Sorry I don't remember but pretty sure I went with one tooth smaller front sprocket

Yup I only showed a quick clip of that because it was hard to see.

Appreciate the feedback 🤘

@@Kordare Yessir.

I have no idea so I'll prolly just wait and see 😂

Generally speaking, transmission issues are relegated to the 2001 model year. The 2nd gear dog gear is weak and breaks. This problem was more or less addressed in 02-05 models with a stronger 2nd gear.

For the street get a street legal dirt bike

Hell ya your bringing back good memories dude

Yeah I noticed that after as well, just needs a little black paint

Hey Joshua, I have been a full time mechanical engineer for about 7 years, I didn't start KZfaq until about 3 years ago. I've had a small fabrication business on the side for about 6 years. I am completely self taught with anything to do with cars, fabrication, and welding. Of course being an engineer can help to understand how things work. My biggest advice is to follow your passions. It isn't always easy to know what your passion is and I admit I'm still figuring it out myself. You need to try many different things so you can really nail down what you want to do. If you put your heart and soul into what you're truly meant to be doing and enjoy doing, success will come. Also don't get caught up on getting a job just because of pay, the most important thing is to live below your means. If you do that, the amount you get paid really doesn't much matter. Work hard and stay patient, good luck to you and I really appreciate your support!

@@Kordare Wow!! Thank you, brother!!! Words to live by!!! I really appreciate you acknowledging me and taking the time out to reply. Truth be told, I believe this is supposed to be the door to all my other passions and everything. Ever since I was a kid and watched the Hustler’s Ambition music vid by 50 Cent (I know this sounds silly, but that’s how dreams and passions work) I saw the most basic rundown loft and was inspired, I wanted that. Well lately, since a f&f movie (again, I know kinda bizarre) I saw a loft/garage and work space. That also hit me just right. Finally, I was thinking about doing cars. The night of the day I took it serious, I had a dream/vision of a slanted shed that was a living space in the back and huge double or tri garage in the front. I knew while I was seeing this, that the garages were where my car work was. I literally could work out of my home. The revelation hit me like a ton of bricks. Like my whole life built up to that moment or something. Less than a week later I see a garage shed just like the one in my dream. I didn’t even know that exact frame really existed! Give or take around another week, and I stumble across your channel!! And I am floored by what I see!!! I do not believe I came across you by accident. Thank you for being a pioneer and for being bold and brave. I hope you find all you want and are meant to! I hope more dreams come true for you!!! You have a lifelong fan and supporter!!! You are awesome!!!

Haha good thing my neighbors aren't close 😂

I haven't seen much smoke and it's running great

Thanks. I try to keep my videos concise so I cut out any boring content.

I agree!
