Yamaha Raptor is one of the All Terrain Vehicles manufactured by Yamaha for race and off track expedition events. The first version was released in a 660 cc engine while the newer release had the 686 cc engine and was known as Raptor 700 R. Being a quad motorcycle, the essential features are at the right place, and be it the flexible shock absorbers or the high pick – up. The fuel injected, liquid cooled engine produces a substantial 45 horsepower, which ensures a good control over irregular terrains. The Raptor has some fine detailing done with the appearance and the racers find it menacing. The extra wide tires with dual grip, the firm seat with additional shock absorbers, the multiple color schemes and the overall styling make this monster look a super star. The engine is studded with a manual gear system and the five speeds and a reverse gear ensure that there is a way out of every situation.
