Sat Nov 13 2010Well my wife just bought a 350 and I have a honda 450. I could give a shit between Honda and Yamaha. My opinion, its fast but there is no replacement for displacement. Of course a 400 has greater potential.

Thu Sep 03 2009i have a ltz 400 with fmf powercore and and 13t sprocet to get some low end but im not here to trash on yamahas. my brother has a bone stock 05 raptor 350. my bike is quicker but before i got mine i rode his a lot. great bikes as long as you do something about the traction with the stock tires. way to much low end tourqe for the stock rubber. i would suggest either holeshots or a bigger front sprocket. deffinately a snappy bike. when you want the power its there or if you want to just cruise down the road you have no problems. yamaha really has something great with the 350. its obvious because they havn't really changed anything about it since it came out!! i want to get my bro a slip on for christmas but not sure the best way to go, any help would be great. thanks!

Tue Aug 04 2009i own a 08 raptor 350 it is a great trail quad no trouble keeping up in woods(where riding skill come in to play) anyone can ride in a straight line.But people are saying it will do 90 come on it wouldn,t do 90 trown out of an airplanr,stock maybe 65 if you go up one tooth on the countershaft,I went down one so it has more lowend torque(for trail riding) the only problem is the tranny does not like to shift out of rev sometimes installed oil coller much better now like i said good trail machine good torque for the woods topend screamer no.Friends hav mostly 4 wheel drives and bigger displacment quads, i do get stuck in mud occaisionaly but once you learn to stay out of first and just bounce you ass on the rear of the seat i get stuck less often,this motoe is also a lugger not a rver you can lug the motor almost up any hill,For the people with my quad is better than yours GROW THE F!@# UP. what are you in kindergarten the best quad is what you can affors,ride legally and have fun doing ...

Sun May 03 2009I have a question that will follow my opinion.. i have never a quad before and i just trade my street bike in on a Raptor 350.. wow i went on a 37 mile trail yesterday and not once did i have a problem running down the other quads and at some points when there quads had nothing else to give i still have plenty of acceleration left to rip past them and fling the mudd in there faces, durability is unbelievable at one point ran into a tree and nothing at all happened to my quad my friend ran into the rear of mine with his Polaris 800 with rhino bumper and nothing at all outstanding durability on the 37 mile trail that went up and down hills creeks river beds sharp hairpin turn you name it, it was on this trail. Only thing did not like was my transmission seemed off at times might just take me more time to get used to... Great product no complaints love it glad i sold my bike. Question what is the best and preferred exhaust system for this quad ?

Mon Apr 27 2009THIS IS THE BEST ATV THERE IS!!! I bought my yamaha raptor 350 used and its an 05 model. Its is crazy fast and powerful. This is the most reliable $ wheeler ive ever boght. Its got me through mud, water and up very steep hills. Sure ive had to be pulled out of some deep mud but who hasnt? If u want a 4 wheeler thats fun to ride, reliable, fast, loud, and just looks cool, then this is the only 4wheeler that i would tell u to get.

Fri Oct 03 2008i got my raptor 2 months back it is only a 350 but insurance was a killer for a 660 or 700 but i cant believe how well it does, it has been tricked up with lots of aftermarket stuff and does 98mph which i feel is kwik enough because it gets there very very quickly so overall i think its spot on

Wed Feb 13 2008well the 350 was sold so im looking at this now. anybody have any pointers im paying attention...i havent ridden in 15 yrs. my son races motocross with his dad so i dont get to get involved that much...here it is guys...I am selling my awesome 2002 Yamaha Warrior 350. This is an killer four wheeler. The guy I bought it from set it up for racing but never got her onto the track. I wish I had the list of all the mods, but it was in my computer that crashed and I lost all the details. Here is what I do know. 350 four stroke engine, reverse, HMF pipe, electric start, wideneding kit for a more stable ride, YZF shocks, nerf bars, renthal handle bars, runs great, starts easily and will fly. what u think??????also looking at honda 400ex 2002-2004. but they dont have revers on them... is that a big deal???

Fri Feb 08 2008I have had my Raptor 350 since 2005 and this quad can get up and move! for a 350 it has balls, i ridden with banshess with exhaust set kits and intake and also ltz 400's worked up and i can keep up just fine through trails and tight tracks. The only thing this quad needs is better suspension and more top speed, botton end this quad is great for any rider around the 115-160 weight class. there are many aftermarket pipes and jet kits the only thing i cant find is a longtravel kit! i have a yoshi pro comp full system with the gytr intake and jet kit. If anyone knows where i can find a long travel let me know! im a parts guy at a yamaha dealership in cali and i cant find anything....if you need anything else parts fenders access. i can find them let me know - PEACE!

Mon Jan 28 2008I have a 350 warrior, think it's a 96 or there abouts. Love the size and power to weight ratio. Finally got a new 2006 350 raptor, and almost everything is the same except out of the box it is much more lively. Handles a bit quicker and has so much power I cant keep the tires from roasting all the time. starts in 1/4 second every time. I recommend getting 1-3/4 thick wheel spacersfor the front, about $29.95 as it immproves the cornering and stability. No need to pay a fortune for extended a-arms. I took them off my old warrior and can't hardly ride the old one any more. Guss I'll have to wait till my son grows into it. BTW, a stock 350 Raptor beats the pants off a stock Honda 400. Anyone can beat the other with aftermarket stuff, but why bother/ Want more? get a 700, my brother has one of those.... WIKID! more than I need.

Tue Jul 17 2007Great machine my friend has a 2001 400ex it is piped and jetted with the k&n; and white bros.E series exhaust. We ride all the time and the 400 only beat me by 1/2 a length when mine was stock. I think that the 400 has a little more grunt on the bottom but my 350 catches up on the top. Both quads have the same cog ratio's but everyone knows the 350 has that extra gear on the top. Really they where about the same on the power side of things. Now I have piped and jetted mine with the dg rcm 2 and K&N; power pack as well as a big gun rev box and changed the front cog up just one tooth this made a big difference in the way this quad performs. The torque is unbeleavable and it gets staight into the mid to top end range. These modifications where pretty cheap to I spent about $400.00 on it all. My friend spent that on his pipe alone. Now he gets beat by 1 1/2 to 2 lengths everytime. My friend cannot beleave that the 350 beats the 400. The point is that in most cases with the right mods and g... Read more

Wed May 30 2007Just picked her up yesterday .. MINT .. great smooth power always there when you need it .. good stock tires ... good looks .. ride's KINg ... seems like a great bike so far .. miss the 2 stroke snap tho' oh ya .. all you people playing the pissing game about who is faster number 1 trail are what matters, anyone can go in a strait line! 2 if everyone wanted fast they'd have 660s and 700s .. fucking ride and enjoy it, if you have to justify your bike you shouldn't be riding it!!!

Fri Oct 06 2006This is a fun bike to ride .Lots of power good layout on the controls. The reverse lever is tricky but works fine once you are use to it.Good bike for the money

Sat Jul 15 2006I got a z440 (52 HP) and it smokes these 350's by 20 quad lengths or more in a drag, and smokes it on the track too, or even trails, dunes, anywhere! If you have one you should sell it or trade it in and move up to a 400cc or bigger, even a damn 400ex is faster than these, its already been tested, read Dirt Wheels mag or any review thats online! I don't see why people talk so much shit when their quad isn't even that fast (people with 350's).

Wed May 31 2006Buy one in you like to constantly work on it. The timing chain is just one of the numerous poor designs of the bike.

Mon May 15 2006the 350s are nice all around bike ecspecially for the trails and lesiurley riding. i cant say anything bad about them. i have a 400ex with lots of money tied into it and at the end of te day its still a 400ex. im not running away from anybody to fast with that thing. and mr honda450r with your 9k tied into your bike, bring it out some day and put up against my 700r and well see whose so bad ass.

Tue Apr 11 2006I have a 660 and we bot my wife the 350 special edition. Although I like the 350 so much I commonly take it over mine, aftermarket parts are tuff to find. A neighbor kid cracked her grill and front fender, and so far I found the only replacement is Yamaha OEM stuff...
