Raptor Chapter

It's been a while since I've visited , good to see it's still going though. I've still got the v raptor and still enjoying it. Off to Portugal next month on it again to visit my big bruv and my new house where I'm moving to after Xmas. Hoping to take the bike with me but depends on the cost of regis...

If you still need one nearer xmas then mine should be ready for sale then at around £1600 with 12 months mot.52 plate v-raptor with brand new white paintwork plus some extras.

It should fit physically but if you wanted to use the tlr throttle bodies you have some work to do with a remodeled air box and then you would have some loom work to do to run the bigger ecu.The power delivery is very different and without using the above mentioned bits then there wouldn`t be much p...

Take a look at the feet on steps or workmates as it looks very much like its off something like that.

Simply stunning .

Put a light weight balaclava on 1st then the helmet can`t snag.Works for people with lots of piercings.

If the front wheel is buckled then it will cause a weave at speed.I had a cbr 600 with a buckled front rim and it did just as you describe and became worse on fast sweeping bends as it pushed the wheel all over the place,as for baggy clothes,yes they can cause a wobble but i mentioned it as it`s a n...

Did you have any baggy/loose fitting clothing on,this can cause weaving at speed that`s why racing leathers are a snug fit and every one in the 70`s wearing flared jeans had tank slappers.

Wouldn`t a late suzuki sv manual do for the engine and the 1000 raptor manual do for the rest.

No not leaving but after rebuilding the Buell i now owe my bruv £1400 that he kindly loaned me to pay the parts bill and i just can`t see where i can get the money to pay for it other than the sale of the Rap :wavesad: .I want her to go in fine fettle so she can give the new owner the same sense of ...

I`m rebuilding the Rap for sale as i want to pass on the best bike i possibly could.Question is what colour should i paint it.I like the white one i`ve seen on here recently and i also like the idea of a black one .Both would have a few candy red accents here and there whith contrasting writing etc ...

Paints a picture in my mind similar to pythons the holy grail,"tis but a flesh wound".Glad you`re OK.

Excellent bit of info that ,never thought to look at the rear bracket.Will be adjusting that at weekend when i fit all the new parts i`ve collected.

You know you`re not making any freinds don`t you.
To make ammends i think you should send half of your sunshine to us here in the UK,starting today please and we`ll forget about all these silly pics you have of that warm stuff. Cheers,AZ

Mine can be a pig sometimes so i guide it down by using a long screw driver through one of the holes on the front of the tank into the thread on the frame,then by a little wiggling i can get the other bolt in and the other follows fairly easily.
