Yamahammer Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 Right on i herd about it adn there it is the replacement for the warrior Quote
evil Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 ive only seen pics of it but no info on it. is it the same motor as the warrior ? Quote
rebelbanshee2 Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 pretty slick of yamaha to update a quad, but at least keep the name the same. Noboday wants another raptor to be confused with. "Hey man I just got a new Raptor today!" "Whoa those 660s are so fast you must be really cool!" "Uhhhh actually its a 350, boy do I feal dumb." Quote
2004LEBanshee Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 348 air cooled sohc 4 stroke but the bike only weighs 375 6 speed and reverse in any gear Quote
trail rider Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 Its a pretty slick quad. It has a raptor front end and a YFZ 450 ass end. whats up with the front bumper, it looks plastic? It has a pretty good skid plate. the back light looks kinda funny. Quote
Big Blue Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 ive only seen pics of it but no info on it. is it the same motor as the warrior ? I read somewhere it is supposed to be a tuned version of the old motor, i think is is going to have a bigger flatslide carb. Quote
Wassup350 Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 I think they should definitely come out with a more original name or just name it the warrior. Quote
Big Blue Posted February 7, 2004 Report Posted February 7, 2004 They should leave it named warrior, that is what is has been for years why change it, if anything they should put a warrior 350r or something like that. Quote
tithead Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 i dug this out for fastlilone......click on the link from felOn posted. theres info on that Quote
ledofthezep Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 Looks like Yamaha's bastard child....gotta little yfz, warrior, raptor, & banshee all into it. Check out the banshee tires & swingarm....same shitty chain adjustment. But it looks pretty slick, I'm sure it'll be a good all-around bike. Quote
fastlilone Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I agree on the name issue that they should have left it the Warrior or at least given it a different name. I amy be alone on this comment, but I think they should have given the YFZ450 a real name too. just for instance, Who knows what a yfs200 is or a yfz350, I would be certain about half this site will recognize those as the Blaster and Banshee but out side of that nobody would. I think it would be much nicer to see real names, that is just me though. Also the specs on the suspension are slightly differant on the Raptor 350 as aposed to the Warrior, not to mention it is lighter, and if the engine is tweaked just a bit it will be kinda interesting to see how much better they actually made it.

Banshee crazy kid Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 Raptor 350 v.s. wasrrior 350....looks like the same motor just a diff name,plastics tires and maybe rims, and also alot more rear travle on the shocks... Quote
fel0n Posted February 12, 2004 Author Report Posted February 12, 2004 I think that they are going to keep the warrior, and thats why they aren't gonna call the Raptor 350 the Warrior. You cant have two different quads named the same thing. Quote
