I brought the Rappy home this weekend and rode it for the first time in a long while.
I can't put into words how fast this thing is, It has torque from the beginning of 1st all the way through 5th. I can litterally be cruising in mid 4th and simply hammer down the throttle (no clutch) and the wheels start slowly coming up, they will keep coming up until I let off. This Rappy will scare the most advanced rider. I can't wait to be able to get out to the trails on it.
Just wanted to share my joy..... ;D
686?
Thats what a good Spark Plug will do for ya ;)
That is one bad A@@ quad you have there mike

Yeah, It's a 686 with a few other things, ahh hell, who am I kidding, with A LOT of other things done to the motor. ;D
Mike let me know when you plan on taking the rappy for a ride. I wanna play.
Pavement will do that. ::)

Sounds awsome to have that kind of pwr.Where is chuck to challange you at rodman?
I haven't seen Chuck lately. We've had a long standing race planned but can never get together. When you see him tell him the Rappy's back and is ready to wax his behind. ;D

There seems to be some truth to that quote
Looks Good Mike.. looks like we need to hook up soon you have 2 450's of each variety stepp'n up dont forget that spark plug. you'll need that competitive edge
I brought the Chain link fence to smooth things out last time for the pit either that or we can hook up at Saltsdale I am sure Smoke is more than accommodating
what would we do if there was no such thing as smack talk ;D
We're gonna have to get together in Ocala real soon. I'd love to do a small group ride.
I can't wait til October for Saltsdale, I'll probably sell it before then. This is to scary fast for me to keep. For those of you that have ridden with me (on the Rappy) know that I'm usually pinned and this thing is way to strong for me to stay pinned. I'll kill myself. ;D
Put some paddle tires on back, and skis on the front and you could take it anywhere.
