Awesome! My mate has a raptor and he's looking at having an R6 conversion. Superquads quoted him Ł6k for the basic conversion but thats using a damaged donor R6 to keep the costs down. Thats a drive in drive out with an R6 engine and clocks, everything else is extra so you can easily see where the Ł16k R1 conversion price comes from with brand new 08 engine and all the other bits too. Ł10k for that is a bloody decent price mate, especially when a normal 08 raptor will cost you over Ł6k.

Very cool mate!!! Your front shocks have too much preload on though cause your top ZPS springs are completely shut!!
Here is a few quads from New Zealand to give guys an idea of power!!

Corners really well tbh! you can take roundabouts at about 80-90 but when doing that speed you do have to hang off it a bit..
gonna try and get some onboard videos sorted this week, just waiting for a helmet cam to turn up
Cheers for all the comments..
