I own a 08 Raptor 700 and love it, hands down my favorite atv so far. Does anyone else own one? How do you like it? Any problems?

i have an oh 8 limited edition with the red carbon fiber grill and checkered flag sceme.... love the bike great off the line or any gear.... tough and powerful.... and even my wife and cousin learned how to ride it in less than 10 minutes they both could do donuts and such.... love the bike... but i find it to be extremely front heavy in jumps.... any suggestions for suspension adjustments to fix the prob.?

Have a good shock company rebuild them to your specific size,terrain,price range,and anyother needs. The 08 shocks are way better than previous models but are not set for a specific person in general.

it is stock right now.... when i get my renegade it will become "our bike" haha my wife loves my raptor too.... and i know she will like the renegade... i would get another raptor but i like to change up tacticts now and then... rene's are better for mud. But I do hope to start with a set of proarmor fat nerfs and a dual exaust.... how do you guys feel about duels on the 700?

Those renegades are very nice, and the duels are nice. But only show real gains if you build up the motor. The best ones are Barkers,Monsters,or LTE "Looney Tuned Exhaust". But they are all expensive,weigh more than a single, and like said before if no plans on motor work than just stick with a single. Like Ct racing,HMF,White Brothers,or sparks.
