Miracle's New Quad Bike - Yamaha Raptor 700r

Hey Guys and Girls,

I picked up my new quad bike today, has anyone on here got one or been on one? Oh, its so much fun, especially off road! And we've already got it dirty!! lol.. I can't wait too detail it, it rained earlier when I was out on it, and I need some protection on her as well as some water repellant treatment applied to the mirrors and my visor on my crash helmet, I think a touch of Crystal rock will do the trick on the body and painted bits, once i have removed all the swirls of course!!! Will make it easy to clean in future then, its going to get covered in mud on Saturday, so I will try to detail it very soon.

Here's a pic...



Im just loading a walk around video of the quad, so as soon as its uploaded I will post it up.

Kind Regards
Paul

 

Here's the video with the added crack code for high quality viewing, hopefully this will work....

Looks very fun, i prefer these over motorcycles!

 

Wow i bet that beast hits 60 before my car.....lol

come on statistics.....:waiting2:

 

Marc, I think the things quicker than my scooby, scares the shit out of me more than the scooby I know that! lol.

Its the best fun ever on a wet grassy forest too... Mmm, where to go next....

 

Here's a proper video of it by Yamaha -

Well i think ill secretly wax the wheels and pi$$ my pants next time im round....lol

 

Don't worry, I can donuts with you on the back then!! Good plan, but who's gonna hold the camcorder, oh you can hold that while on the back! hahahahaha...

 

Looks like a blast for sure!

I haven't ridden in awhile but grew up riding those. The last time I rode mine I was so sore I could hardly move for the next few days. I was at the parents visiting a few weekends ago and they told me to get mine running and use it or get it out of the shed. I think it just needs a good tune up and I'll be back on it.

We used to get covered from head to toe with solid mud. That was fun, I want to go out and ride now.

 

See now your pretty good with a rotary but id rather eat my own foot than get on a quad with you...:catfight:

 

How many layers of Crystal Rock are on it???

 

Knowing Paul His leather chaps he will be wearing riding it will also be waxed....:gidiup:

 

Nice toy there Paul, I've been on a quad a few times, nothing sporty though but they sure are fun :thumb: specially if you have one with lots of power behind it :wicked:

Now get detailing and show us some pictures

 

Quad bikes are the SHIZZLE!!!

 

Very nice Paul. I have a Honda 450 myself, these things are a blast to ride.

 

Dam right!!!

For sure, Im itching to take it out now in the dark, the exhaust I got put on sounds frickin nuts, it also wheelies in 1st, 2nd and 3rd! lol

60mph on the road on one, is very exciting and scary at the same time, off road is brilliant fun, forest in the dark could be interesting though.

 

None yet, but be sure it will get at least 3 layers and another layer everytime I wash it after that, I plan to get it covered in mud with the crap weather were having here in the uk at the moment.

I even took the scooby off road the other day, got covered in mud, but with the CR wax, it all came off perfectly with a quick jet wash at 30c!!!

Don't think I will be using the jet wash on the quad though, we have a different cleaning method for the quad in mind.

 

Ah I love quading and dirtbiking. So much fun, nice purchase. I have a 2002 Honda XR 400 with a few mods.

 

I have a couple. In no time you'll be jumping that bad boy. The fastest one i have ridden was my neighbors at 70. i think he has a polaris with ktm engine.

 

WD40 is a great protectant for the engine and driveline such as axles and chain. just spray it on an wipe the excess off..... its great.

whenever its gets dirty just rinse off the engine and associated parts and they look new. of course another application is in order too afterwards.
