What kind of GoPro mount are you guys wearing? Id like to have mine mounted in a way that it hangs from my helmet for a better view of handling and throttle control instead of on my helmet just catching views of the trails.
That's part of riding. Comes natural to the good riders. Always keep an eye out for your fellow riders, especially new riders or someone coming back into riding with years off.
Nice trails. Going riding tomo upstate ny in the Adirondacks. Going with a 2020 renegade can am, 05 Honda 450r and an 87 banshee. I'll be sending it on my 03 raptor 660r. SEND IT!!!!!
@@ohmygosh8009 I've been out to tall pines about an hr or so south of you. A little rough on the sports quads but fun. You should check out tug Hill area, awesome for sports quads.
Jacob Brewer is a animal on any trail system I had an awesome time ripping the trails with him and jesse…let me say this next time I’ll be more prepared 🤣🤣🤣…great video guys 🦾🦾🦾🔥🔥
Another great video bro. I wanted to let ya know I finally got my Urmosi throttle and it's a very well made piece of equipment but in my opinion if your throttle isn't broke then save your money. Also don't waste your money on getting the throttle adapter piece either, the site states the adapter is recommended for YFZ 450'S & Raptor 700's but it's not needed. You can save yourself $20 by not purchasing that piece because the throttle cable can be adjusted with the oem equipment that's provided. By the way this is my opinion especially for rider's/owners with limited funds. I'm not bashing Urmosi products at all, these throttles are made very well but like I stated above if your throttle isn't broke then save your money. Again great video Pete, I still love the Raptor more! 🤙🏻👍🏻
Pete you are soo ready for some GNCC racing in fact any cross country racing bro ! It would be so cool to see you race it’s all that’s needed to send the channel into orbit 💪😎🏁💨💨🏆
It would be pretty wild to race someday! It takes an insane amount of endurance to ride at a high level for that long so I would have to allocate a lot of time to training to survive the race haha! Maybe in the coming years I'll have the opportunity 😅🤘
Epic video!! It hurts seeing you do all the stuff I couldn't due to parts failure. I will definitely be back! Love seeing you rip through there with Jake.
Awesome content as always! I'm planning on going to Badlands next month for the first time and bringing some new riders too. It would be awesome to make a group ride happen with you guys 💪🏼🙏🏼
It depends on what size your looking for. Unfortunately your best bet is to look for a Honda or Yamaha since there’s more aftermarket parts availability. The Raptor 700 is an amazing trail machine for more causal paced riding but the 450’s are a bit more practical for aggressive riding since the ergonomics are more race oriented 👌👍
man, I'm working on my credit so I can have a back yard like that! and jezz, when I'm on my quad the last thing I'm thinking about is scratching it and or digging it up lol. prolly why I work on it more than I ride! lolol.
They’re great quads! The only negative thing I hear about is some of the ER’s have electrical starting issues but I’m sure there’s plenty of info online on how to troubleshoot and do preventative maintenance for those issues 👍
Looking forward to your subscriber meetup at Little Sahara (Waynoka, OK) sand dunes on Oct 1st and 2nd! Hopefully this year it will work out for my schedule to join ya!
@@parkerklemme6516 thanks man appreciate that! I haven't been able to ride in a long time between working out of state now and it being so dry I can't ride even when I am home it really sucks
@@everythingloud4068 yeah, been a rough one for me to it’s either been pouring or to hot to the point where it would be miserable. Than the only time I could my dad went into surgery and he goes with me all the time and I hate going without him so I’m hoping to get some good fall riding in!
Man love the ex and the yfz man sweet machines brother great job on the videos I live in ludington MI and just got my raptor up and ripping would love to go to the little O next time you’re this way
Just sold my older raptor. Torn between the yfz and raptor now. Im over 220lbs. Mostly a trail rider. Was a MX'er in my teens. I stand and ride and not afraid to catch some air. What would you recommend?
I really enjoy the Raptor in more wide open environments. It’s also super comfortable for exploring/riding all day long. The 450‘s definitely more practical to ride aggressively and to get some air time with. Since you have a MX background I would think the 450 would be a more preferred set up for you 👍
The Honda is getting a tune up at Illinois powersports right now. Upgrades are kinda on hold since the parts world is still crazy. We may not do a lot of work to it until this winter when we have more downtime 👍
Great video today two Yamaha’s in the trails. I hope to get on a sport/race atv again soon. I haven’t rode them in about 7-8 years but it’s all I rode before and as a teen. I’m 33 now my main ride is a 2016 Sportsman 850, it’s fun and smooth and good predictable power but I miss the nimble quickness and flickability of these atvs. I plan to get a raptor 660/700 or a yfz450 by next summer unless I see a good deal in the fall here. 🇨🇦👋. Your videos really got me into wanting to ride these again!
Great to hear man! I'm 31 and got back into riding sport ATV's when I was 28. I also rode them as a teenager and got out of in my early 20's.. Hopefully you can pick up a sport quad sooner than later! Thanks for supporting my channel! #savesportquads 😬🤘
@@PeteHager haha yes save the sport quads! O cool yes I think I remember hearing this somewhere from you mabey another comment and never too late I suppose to get back into that style riding. But I will let you know when and if I get a sport atv. I’m hoping for some fall riding with one! And I do enjoy the channel a lot. 🍻🤝
Pete how often do u have to rebuild your raptor 700s top end? I just sold my dirtbikes to buy a raptor. I don’t want to buy something I’m going to have to rebuild every 40 hours
Realistically the Raptors top end should last well over 100 hours! They’re very reliable machines. Much less maintenance then the 450’s as well. For the performance and comfort it’s pretty hard to beat 👌🤘
So looking back how do you compare your yfz and raptor to your old ktm 525? I have a 04 banshee, 10 450x and just got a 09 525xc. Really like the ktm so far but not as impressed as I am with the yfz tbh.
The Raptor's been ridden a lot of these places already so I've been making a point to ride the YFZ to get a better sense for both machines. So far the Raptor is my favorite in more exploratory type settings. It's great for a more casual trail riding or just long days in general because it's so comfortable. If I'm pushing my abilities then the YFZ is a safer platform for me to do so since I can't really exceed it's limits. Both quads have their place. My next video I'm working on is on the Raptor 😁🤘
The Raptor 700's mechanically are all the same between trim levels. The only thing that changes is the plastic, suspension, heel guards and the bumper 👍
Hey could you possibly give me a close up sound of your engine cause I have a 2022 and it pretty noisy at mid rpm and I need to see if thats normal. I would greatly appreciate it
The YFZR motors are kinda noisy, since it’s brand new I’m sure it’s a normal symptom. I see people asking similar questions about new machines on Facebook pretty regularly 👍
@@PeteHager i was just wondering cause i watch your videos alot and yh im just begging people to help me out get one but lets see what the future holds
The 450’s still be really new to me and I’ve made dozens of videos on the Raptor so it’s been fun to change it up. The Raptor also needs suspension work to match up with the increased horsepower so when that finally gets upgraded I’m sure I’ll ride it more 👍
Great times! Great video! Great friends! Can't wait for more adventures!
What kind of GoPro mount are you guys wearing? Id like to have mine mounted in a way that it hangs from my helmet for a better view of handling and throttle control instead of on my helmet just catching views of the trails.

You should look up Trempeleau County Atv Club in Wisconsin they have some great trails.
you should try to come to NY and do a NYOA race with John sousa jr

I haven't been able to ride all summer because all the roads and trails have been shut down because the fires are so bad 😫
