So, I just bought my first brand new machine I've ever owned. I picked up a 2011 raptor 350 and the Wifey a 2011 trx 250, I am a experienced rider on various machines, mostly 2 and 3 wheels!! But grew up riding anything I could get on! Now I've been reading this forum quite a bit and am curious if I made a good choice with the 350, bearing in mind I will almost always be riding with my wife whom is just getting into it! Hence the 250x with sport clutch, but I figure with the big 3 mods, that the raptor will be loads of fun for me as I've been riding a 185s atc and found it to be a blast! But when riding with her I won't be racing, or getting so far ahead or away as I can't keep a eye on her to be sure she's ok until she gets acclimated, but I guess all I needed to ask was is the 350 a good fun bike for a experienced rider, in trails and dirt roads, and weighing in at 185lb at 5'11" and will the big 3 make a noticeable difference in gains from bone stock? And does anyone have experience with a 12t front for more bottom grunt? Thanks in advance for any opinions on this and keep em rolling!!
