2007 Yamaha Raptor 700R Special Edition
Raptor 700R Special Edition rolls in with special graphics and colors, atop YFZ-style front shocks and a rear end with separate high- and low-speed compression damping adjustability.
All new in 2006, the Raptor 700R was named ATV Illustrated’s “Sport ATV of the Year” in its rookie season (a tie with our own YFZ450).
Raptor 700R is designed to dominate in the widest range of riding environments, from tight woods to desert to dunes.
A 686cc Yamaha fuel-injected engine makes this the most powerful sport ATV ever, with big torque right off idle transitioning into a fat midrange and monstrous top end.
Yamaha fuel injection means consistently excellent engine performance in a wide range of conditions, elevations, and temperatures.
Hybrid steel and aluminum frame with a Controlled Fill aluminum subframe and cast swingarm pivot combine to produce a super-strong structure and the lightest ATV in its class.
Aggressive styling reflects Raptor 700R’s intent and YFZ inspired handling means it walks the walk too.
Long-travel suspension—9.1 inches front, 10.1 rear—a cush seat and excellent ergonomics make the Raptor 700R comfortable to ride hard all day long.
