    Default I am prolly fixin to make a big mistake

    Alot of my friends have been gettin 4-wheelers so I have decided it is time to get me one. I have decided to get me a Raptor 700R. My last 4-wheeler was a Bear Tracker and I about killed myself on it cause I wrecked it so much. So yeah I am prolly goin to get hurt on this 4-wheeler but oh well it will be fun.

    did you already buy it or were you riding someone else's? i used to take customers raptor 660's and race the cars in the slow lane on the interstate....i'd get on the access road in front of the shop and just slow to a roll and when a car would start coming up on the interstate i'd run it through 6th and i'd be pulling away from them...raptors are sick 4wheelers in a straight line

    I will be careful on this 4-wheeler. I know how bad I can get hurt on one and I really want to take care of this one. My last one didn't last to long.
