Yamaha Raptor 700R Installing Alba A-Arms 

My pleasure. Be sure to use my promo code gmc10 @teamalbaracing.com

I’ll do it. Thanks

Thanks bro I like it too

Thanks bro. I'm really liking this one

She's getting there. Never thought I'd like a raptor

Thanks bro

Thanks bro

I like it for sure too

The same front end?

They always fit rite up better then some expensive ones I've bought before

Yeah it's definitely a wide girl

@@garagemcmatt hey wonder oft them discs guards will fit 06 yfz should right

@mikewisher4083 I would think so but they might make them for it as well. Check ebay

Do whatever you really want I don't care, lol😂

Are those yfz shocks the lt length for those a arms. I run -3 on my caster, I run houser, it's nice and easy to adjust. But those Alba are nice

You can get wider then plus 2. Raptor with a r1/r6 engine I'm sure would be low and wide already. I've been wanting to build one but for dirt use with a r6 engine. Already have the donor street bike here.

I did not get it back yet. Yeah people suck bro. Thanks, let them videos play

I've run these arms on other quads and they hold up. The raptor got stolen so I didn't even get a chance to test it out

@@garagemcmatt Oh that sucks that it got stolen. I think im sold on alba arms for my raptor, thanks for responding.

@@cherry2036 I always respond bro

What quad is it

Should be the same procedure or atleast dam close

@@garagemcmatt I'd like to set it long travel but not sure what shocks would work with little to no modifications. You have any ideas?

@@Kevin_Yagoonie efi model yfz450r front shocks work with long travel a arms

@yagoonie5.3 I can get u a very clean set rite now for $450 that's about $100 cheaper then on ebay before shipping. Off a 2021 yfz minimal hours on them they are like new

@@garagemcmatt damn to bad I don't got the money. Gotta do brake lines on my truck first. But do appreciate it

It comes with tie rods. U will need to re use your stock tie rod ends tho or buy new ones

More then likely you blew out a ball joint

really that would cause the spindle to sag? @@garagemcmatt

It's tough to say without seeing it

It would be cool

I used the stock ones if I remember correctly

@@garagemcmatt alright thanks i assembled one side already with the stock ones.

@cherry2036 I think they ship those with the sleeves just for packing. I'm not 100% sure tho. I do know that it is the same part from alba that fits the carb model yfz450. Could be that they fit those better (sleeves)

It makes too much noise when I'm filming

It's crazy how a videos length ads up so fast. This one being an hour long is cut down from 3.5 hours worth of footage. It takes longer to edit then the work in the video takes. Do u like the longer videos or my normal 20 to 30 min videos?

The spacers stay exposed those are just to get your caster you want dialed it

@@garagemcmatt thanks for the reply. So dust caps first then spacers?

@Kevin_Yagoonie yes the dust cap cover the a arm mounting points the spacers will be exposed

@@garagemcmatt thanks I appreciate it. I don't know why but I didn't receive a instruction sheet. So going by your video. Thank you 👍

@Kevin_Yagoonie all good, that's one of the reasons I'm here.

Yes a good rule of thumb is to not tighten anything that pivots until the weight of the quad is on the ground

Plus 2 inch isn't that bad bro. I wish I could give u a better review but someone stole this quad before I got a chance to even ride it this way

@@garagemcmatt right on.... Thank you.... That's too bad and F*"up!!!! Feel your pain on that stolen problem...😡.... I'm thinking about getting the Elka shocks right now for $900. Or a little over 1200 with shocks and the Alba+2 a arms..... And I would probably also do the Alba 2 inch spacer on the rear.. I have a 2020 Yamaha Raptor 700 standard with the pogo shocks... At first I was just looking for some raptor 700r OEM shocks.... I can get a used 10-year-old set of eBay for $400 but for $500 more I can get a brand new set that's balanced for my weight... It should be a no-brainer but I still can't make my mind up 😂🤣😂 I'm sure I will get what I paid for but I want to save a dollar 🤦

@dirtfamilystyle email me I can get you a set of 2021 yfz450r front shocks just like I used on mine. They go for $550 used I can get a mint barely used set rite now for $350 Garagemc549@gmail.com

@@garagemcmatt I've been doing a little research and you talked me into it...ha ha ha. I used to have a 2004 YZF 450R and I loved the way it handled with the factory shocks... I love my raptors power I just wish it handled a little better...I'm getting ready to pull the trigger and buy the ALBA +2... I'm even going to go with the Elka front and rear shocks package with A arms..... Unless you don't think the rear shock is worth it.?... I have never rode anything with the elks shocks.....

I didn't get to really ride this quad after I did all this stuff to it. Someone stole this quad from my house. I did like it the little bit that I got to ride it tho

@@garagemcmatt ok Sorry my inglis

@pauloalexloeb1 all good it is what it is. What time is it rite now by you? I'm gunna do livestreams at different times for everyone that's not in usa

@@garagemcmatt Hello It's a shame they stole your RAPTOR 700 I have 2 in my house, one mine and one my son's As I said, I applied the arms and shock absorbers, just like in your video. I only walked 120 km in the forest, so far I liked it I would like to get opinions from others who have RAPTORs 700 Big hug from Portugal

@@pauloalexloeb1 I'll be getting another 1 soon

These were from a 2022 but any year yfz450 that is fuel injected are the same as these. The fuel injected year front shocks are longer so if your putting them on a raptor 700 you will need long travel a arms. If you get the carb model yfz front shocks the bolt rite on a 700

Okay because I’m putting rock +2 aarms on my raptor because my cousin crashed it and might as well upgrade it

@@JT-nc6no I still have the whole stock front end from mine

These are plus 2

Each side

Everyone has their own opinion. I've had good luck with alba so far

What parts did you get from Alba or why will you never get parts from them again?

@cherry2036 it's lonestar I'll not buy anymore. And it's thier customer service
