if you worked for yamaha what would you do to rap

Meh I have no interest in wheelies really and I actually find the ole' warrior pretty stable in the air.

I would narrow down the frame and make it out of aluminum to greatly lose weight, and also do the same to the swingarm. I would also mount the engine 2" further back on the chassis and do the already mentioned motor and suspension mods. There is a replacement for displacement, it all comes down to F=ma. A high power to weight ratio is everything. The engine relocation would come in handy for a better balance while jumping big and pulling wheelies.

well the raptor 350 is like 20lbs lighter then the warrior...the rap 350 s i375lbs..in the warrior 396lbs...

I would buy a yfz450 with the efi. However I would speed the process up 2-3 years so all the bugs and **** can get works out of the system

1.That wouldn't even be a stock quad.

The rap350 is still heavier than the yfz, point exploited!

 

[06yfm350]

true, but only 25 lbs heavier, you could probably shave that 25 lbs in aftermarket
