The 2006 Raptor 350SE
This was a poorly designed quad on Yamaha'a part. Too much front weight combined with the awesome lack of power from their trusty old 350cc motor made it reliable, but not as sporty as it looks.
This quad went under the knife as well. With some gear swapping we managed to put this up beside the 400ex from Honda and be more than competitive. It was compared to driving on rails in sand, and was able to slide controllably through any obstacle.
