2016 Yamaha Raptor 700R SE

My 2016 700R SE bottom end decided to let go at 15 hours wasn't even done breaking it in was doing everything the manual said to do to get it broke in and it just randomly went click and that was it. Unfortunately this happened just about a week after the warranty ran out. They quoted me $12 800 ... to rebuild the motor as it needs new casings. I never did return to pick it up from the dealer after they looked at it and I'm stuck paying payments on it for another year. So fusterated with Yamaha i since bought Honda CRF 450R and it's way more powerful and has bin holding up all season so far.

I bought my 2016 SE Raptor 700R new and it's on its forth motor rebuild three on warranty one one on my $. I paid $11 000 and had just had the motor rebuilt again for the tune of $5800 haven't had it a year it's for sale this thing is going to bankrupt me. Dun quad when it runs but the motor seems ... to be a very expensive ticking time bomb.

I bought my 16 Raptor 700 SE R last fall parked it for the winter brought it out in June broke it in the way the manual says. I then had the dealer do a full after break-in fluid/oil change. I then road it on weekends the rest of June and July then motor just randomly shut off one day. Turns out ... it's a very pricey job $9000 for a rebuild as the engine block is cracked on both sides and the cylinder is cracked in half. I was just over half throttle the quad was two months off warranty I don't have $9000 to rebuild the motor and since it's not worth anything with a blown motor and with taxes and interest I'm into it and still paying a $13 000 loan on it I had the quad crushed and completely destroyed. It was a fun quad when it ran this was my third Raptor and my third blown motor in two years I'm done with Yamaha and there junk. Do not buy Raptors they don't last long at all I had maby 20 tanks of fuel in mine and was treated very well was never redlined oil was changed 3 times as well as air filters within them 20 tanks of premium fuel. Yamaha and my dealer Proline Motor Sports in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada screwed me around wouldn't even offer a discount on parts or labour. If you buy a Raptor there disposable cause once the motor goes you can buy a new Raptor for the price of rebuilding your old motor witch makes it non worth it.

I purchased my 2016 Raptor 700R SE in March of this year from a dealership by the name of Got Gear which is located in Ridgeland, MS. Since I've had the raptor the motor has blown twice for unapparent reasons which it never showed signs of any problems. The first crash took place about a month and ... a half after my purchase, which was May. It took the dealer 5 months to complete the job while I continued to make payments. I received it back late October. It seems to ride great and the very next day the motor blew once again. The first motor job was covered by warrant through Yamaha, now they won't cover this second problem, and the dealer won't stand behind their work.

I just bought this yellow and black beast. I've wanted one for years now and finally got one. It is a beautiful piece of machinary. I've been a dirt bug since a kid and now I'm older its a great machine to blow off the kids. Handles great,fast in the straits. All around good bike...

Overall it is a great atv to ride on trails.I love the black and yellow color
