Hi guys winter is coming to the end, I can go back to my raptor! First task is mounting all the electrics. God I hate electrics....... So much ugly cable, never at the right lenght, never at the correct place. I dream of a bike with all wires replaced by wifi!! Ok, start slow with the end of mountin...

As it was made on the printer of the company I work for, I'm sorry to tell I cannot make parts for other raptor owner (sorry....) But I can provide the STL file, there is many website that provide 3D printing (lots of 3D printer owner make a bit of money as printing parts for others when they don't ...

Hi guys! winter is coming, and it's slowing me a litlle bit! tank is now painted, waiting for varnish covering. Freshly painted, I love the glaze finish (it is matt when it dry): https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/450x600q90/921/SARIQT.jpg Fucking fly on my beautiful paint !! :angry: :angry: :angry: ...

The frame is a good idea!! I should have though of that before....

I would love to see pictures of your rebuilt! this is always inspiring, and make me want to rebuilt more!

I had chance to find it in used state. the big part was nearly new, painted in the ugly pale yellow :sick: : http://cagivaonline.free.fr/img/gilbert666/P1030869-1024.jpg and the little parts were a bit damage, I had to reconstruct them with carbon and epoxy: https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x598...

My chain buffer is dead (too old, the plastic breacks) and the part is impossible to find. So I drew it on a CAD software, and try to print it in 3D. https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/450x600q90/921/Zqg730.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/450x600q90/921/gH9Vph.jpg Nice looking part, isnt it?

Thanks guys!

And I agree, an italian bike must be red!
And red is faster, anyway...

I may need your help soon, as I will try to reconect all the electrics. Last time I did that, I had difficulties to identify what and where connecting all this mess!

Hi guys As explained here: http://www.raptorchapter.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4724 I'm currently rebuilding my raptor to genuine. Why? because Raptor are becoming very rare in France, and finding one that is not modified or in poor shape is quite hard. As this was my dream bike since I saw her...

I had the same difficulties to find one to replace my old one, so I draw it in 3D and print it in Nylon, it fits well!



I will post pictures of finished parts whan I found some!

Hi everyone Is there here an 650 IE owner that can make me a drawing of the headlight support? these parts: http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODk5WDE2MDA=/z/1yoAAOSwuzRXeQd9/$_57.JPG Used parts are priceless, and it will be easy to make new one in alloy sheet if I can get a drawing.
