Aggressive styling makes the Raptor 700R look as menacing as it
really is. The mighty Raptor 700R is ready to go whether the
destination is the dunes, the trails or the track.
Powered by our most potent big-bore Raptor engine ever – 686cc
of liquid cooled, fuel-injected power. The engine produces big
torque right off idle, transitioning into a fat mid-range and monstrous
top-end.
Big power and lightweight, a combination that makes any ATV rider
take notice, is standard on the Raptor 700R, with a hybrid steel
aluminum frame and Controlled-Fill aluminum sub-frame and cast
aluminum swingarm combining to produce a super-strong structure
and the lightest ATV in its class.
A thick comfortable seat provides excellent comfort while the dual
counterbalancers, electric starting, and reverse keep things nice and
civilized when needed, but when it comes time to pull the trigger the
big-bore Raptor 700R stands tall.
The YFZ inspired handling of the Raptor 700R is incredible to
experience blasting through the woods. Thanks to the 9.1 inches of
front travel and 10.1 inches out back, the trail bumps smooth out
while the rider keeps things under control. With the combination of
power, solid handling, and a great suspension, this machine has to
be experienced to be fully appreciated.

mapping have been modified.
New suspension settings enhance rider comfort and reduce bottoming.
