Thanks, Jeff. I just got my 05 raptor back going after sitting a few years (much to my son's delight lol). After checking into carb rebuild kits I took a chance on one of the cheap new carbs on Amazon. I'm glad I did, it worked great. Now I think the stators bad, or possibly the battery but it's...

I'm not sure if it's feasible for you, but a new carb on Amazon is fairly priced. My raptor sat for a few years. I cleaned it twice but couldn't get it right. Sounded a lot like what you've described. It was much easier to spend the 70 bucks and I was riding within an hour of getting it in the...

Hey yall. I just logged back in after being off for a while (long while lol). How many of he fellers are still here that were ten years ago?

Thanks ya'll. He cleaned all of the passages but maybe missed one. I'll check it out first chance I get.

Took it apart and cleaned everything that looked varnished. Soaked it overnight then cleaned it. I took it off and my Dad cleaned it while I was working. I went back and put it back onto the quad. There used to be a tutorial on here about breaking the carb down and putting it back. That's what...

Can someone tell me the stock settings on an '05 Raptor carb? I know I've seen it listed on here before but can't find it now. I cleaned it and it will start while giving it a lot of gas but goes dead if you release the throttle at all. Is there a tutorial on here anywhere about how to set it...

Me too. Hey, maybe pay it then borrow it again :)

what size is it? Around here a 200 brings maybe one fifty to two hundred. Big Red 250's and up bring a lot more. That looks like 125 or less so $50 is a good price I think. Anything that will run should bring $50.

Thats cool chitown. Hopefully someone is close enough to you to get em.

Couldn't have been a competent rider at all. Never said the power was smooth bud. Big difference in the power band on the smaller two strokes and bigger ones though. Thats why I asked what yall were comparing to. "no fun to ride..." hahaha, That says it all.

haha, my carb is out of wack right now true enough. I'd gladly gamble any day on a banshee or 250r in a drag race against your 366 4 stroke. It wouldn't even be close bud. I've got nothing against four strokes, but have you ever seen a four stroke beat a two stroke of similar displacement in...

It's the same motor. Theres been several people on here previously who have done it and said it was easy and worked well.

Most people I've heard said the edel gave good bottom and mid. I dont' have one so that is just hearsay, but the edel site claims 2 hp gain on stock raptor. I disagree with madcow, raptor carb SUX!

It wouldn't be the same routing. You'd need to have it custom done and maybe a smaller diameter pipe used for it. Back pressure is the biggest concern so maybe if you split if further back than right at the header, like past the first bend it would work. IDK though. Dual exhausts always look...
