Default NEW QUAD!!!

Well it's a 2001 Yamaha Raptor 660R liquid cooled rebuilt engine and tranny, new tires carb needs to be rebuilt no biggie, and it needs new rear brakes and did I mention ITS FAST AS HELL ON A LIMP CARB? I don't think it was a bad deal for 2400 bucks. I don't know how to post pics on a post though so no pics for now. But this thing is bad ***.

I used to love my raptor. Traded it for a well built 400ex though. The raptor was to big for the woods racing we did... Wouldn't fit down some the trails!

Well guys i rebuilt the carb today today and it moves even faster However I noticed the upper A arm on the left side needs a bushing and i noticed when i was driving it the right front wheel had a slight wobble in it. I'm sure it can be fixed very simply though. mods will come after i pay my dad back what i owe him. Thanks Guys. Oh yeah Any do's and don'ts with this thing?
