Rapotor springs hey, my 2011 pro i feel rides harsh and i want to do something to make it better, so have you riden a sled with raptor springs, im assuming a yamaha raptor quad springs, this sure would be cheaper than buying all new shocks if it works.

Not Yamaha Raptor quad springs, Raptor Performance Shocks springs. They have a kit that replaces all 4 stock shock springs with their triple rate coils for $280. The website says coming soon, but they are available now.

I havent ridden a pro with the raptor spring package yet. Only heard good things about them. The whole raptor coil over shock package is too rich for my budget this year at $2100 set. So the spring package at $290 seems like an affordable upgrade.


Sled looks mean Dragontamer!

Well here is mine. This is the first thing I have ever bought from brand new and I'm so excited I can't wait to ride!
I will wrap it and a new front bumper for sure, any other advice would be helpful. I would like to raise the bars but only 2" anyone know if there is enough slack for this?
I'll post pics once its done. :)

The sled on the trailer looks familiar to me. Put it together today at the lake. +28c and people were water skiing and we were putting sleds together.

Just a buddy of Scotts. The Assault was for his brother in law and the Pro was mine.

He was telling me he had dropped off another on his way up here and then I seen your picture last night.

Nice! I pick mine up on Wednesday. I raised the bars on my 2011 1". I think the cables will be fine with a 2" increase.

Suprised you would raise the bars any more than they already are. RSI makes the burandt bars that are 2" lower for better control for technical boondocking/sidehilling. Im 6'2 and think the bars are just right and all my "shorter" buddies find them too high. jmho!

Sleds look great tho! Dont blme ya for being pumped to ride a brand new sled!

Carls cycle clutching is a huge improvement for a small amount of money if your looking for some upgrades!

X2, wouldn't want my bars any higher, and I'm 6ft.

Wrap and new running boards on the way. Just bought a new motorcycle, so my other plans will wait til next summer.

I agree. Not only do we lower the bars, we ditch the stock bars and go to something narrower. Not sure why they think the stock bars should be so wide.

What bars do you guys put on to do this? I was thinking of getting something a bit narrower.
