Just order some jet black Pro taper SE Raptor bend w/yellow scott grips ($77 shipped from RMATV). Just wondering if anybody else is running these bars and do they rub on the gas tank. Will i guess thats a little late in the game to be asking that huh. anyways thanks -- WOODY

damn wtf..... why do they call them raptor bends if they freakin rub. i knew it, i should have order some risers thanks champ -- WOODY

 

[[CHAMP]]

but the risers are on back order so its a bit of a wait for them to

Ben

 

[W69DY]

Go figure!!!

 

[[CHAMP]]

i think its about a month or more wait to, which dont really bother me as i cant ride my quad now any way but i wouldnt want to mark the shit out of it from the bars

Ben

so how far can you turn before u hit the tank.

 

[[CHAMP]]

almost all the way you could put some tape or something similar on your bars until you get some risers, just an idea

Mine rubbed a tiny bit but I dont have the raptor bend, I have the atv med I think. I put some 3m clear tape aorund the part of the bars that rub and that stopped and scrapes on the plastic. It just barely rubbed though. I now have risers so its perfect. 8)

 

[W69DY]

are the mid bends close to stock and how far up do the risers bring the bars...thanks WOODY

 

[[CHAMP]]

you get a set of risers so you can do 20mm, 25mm, 30mm and 35mm i think, not sure if they are the exact sizes but you get the idea

Ben

 

[W69DY]

cool thanks CHAMP you've been a big help -- WOODY

 

[[CHAMP]]

Like Champ said, they come with a ton of different settings. I think I went with the smallest just so I could clear the tank piece. It wasnt affecting my riding or turning, I just didnt want to scratch the plastics.

The pro taper se mid atv are 813mm wide, 150mm high and 76mm pull back. The Pro taper se Raptor bend are 770mm wide, 143.2mm high and 86.5mm pullback. I dont know what the hell that computes too but I know mine just barely hit. :lol:

 

[W69DY]

I was going to say the same thing lol i dont know what those numbers mean but thanks bro --- WOODY
