– 2011 Yamaha Raptor 700R SE


2011 Yamaha Raptor 700R SE

Superior handling, potent big-bore
power, ultra light design. This 2011 Yamaha Raptor is ready for anything, straight
from the crate.

A stunning “Ghost Black” appearance
package is joined by a GYTR® front grab bar and heel guards.

Designed
to dominate any terrain, the Raptor 700R draws power from the most potent big-bore
engine ever – 668cc of liquid-cooled fuel-injected power.

The jaw dropping
power is complemented by an ultra light design in the form of a hybrid chassis
with aluminum rear section. The suspension design – borrowed from our YFZ450 –
delivers superior handling that’s fully up to the task, whatever the task might
be. Big, broad power. Light weight. Precise handling. Yamaha reliability. That’s
the Yamaha advantage.

Highlights

686cc
of Liquid-Cooled Fuel-Injected Power

Lightweight Hybrid Chassis

Five-Way
Adjustable Preload Kayaba Suspension

 

Key
Features:

” Raptor 700R Special Edition includes wave-style rear
brake disc, dealer-installed GYTR® front grab bar and heel guards, plus special
graphics and colors.
” A 686cc Yamaha fuel-injected engine makes this
the most powerful Yamaha sport ATV ever, with big torque right off idle, transitioning
into a fat mid-range and monstrous top end.
” America’s best-selling
sport ATV comes standard with a digital meter. Riders have plenty of information
available at a glance, including speedometer, dual trip meters, odometer, clock
and engine warning indicators, plus neutral and reverse indicators.

Sport-tuned piggyback shocks provide long stroke for excellent sport-riding comfort,
and are fully adjustable with convenient adjustment knobs to fine-tune the ride.

” Hybrid steel and aluminum frame with a Controlled-Fill aluminum subframe
and cast aluminum swingarm 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.
New for 2011:

New inner rolled wheel’s reduce weight while maintaining strength.

Engine:

Forged lightweight piston, connecting rod and crankshaft in the 686cc engine are
light and strong, for a hard-hitting, quick-revving powerplant that revs all the
way to 9000 rpm. Dual counterbalancers keep it smooth.
” Yamaha Fuel
Injection (YFI) means consistently excellent engine performance in a wide range
of conditions, elevations and temperatures.
” Competition-spec dry-sump
lubrication system boosts usable horsepower and keeps overall engine size more
compact.
” Digital TCI w/16-bit electronic control unit controls fuel
injection and ignition systems for consistent performance and fantastic throttle
response.
” Reliable pushbutton electric start in any gear adds extra
convenience.
” Race-bred five-speed transmission with reverse, along
with Raptor 700R’s monstrous powerband, means there’s a choice of gears in just
about all situations.
” YZ-spec ratchet shifter ensures smooth, resistance-free
shifting under power. Heavy-duty clutch features extra-sturdy basket and plates
designed to harness the Raptor 700R’s power.
” Easy-to-reach oil filter
and tool-free air filter provide added convenience.
Chassis/Suspension:

State-of-the-art chassis combines a steel front section with an aluminum rear
section and detachable subframe to create a super-strong structure.

Compact, CAD-designed chassis creates the ideal wheelbase for light, quick, super-accurate
steering.
” Piggyback shocks provide excellent sport-riding comfort,
with high- and low-speed compression adjustability, rebound and preload adjustability,
and 9.1-inch travel.
” YZ-style piggyback rear shock gives 10.1-inch
wheel travel with high- and low-speed compression adjustability for maximum sport
versatility, along with preload and rebound adjustment.
” Front brake
master cylinder features an adjustable lever for increased comfort and feel.

Twin aluminum-piston front disc brakes deliver tremendous stopping power. Discs
are drilled, which helps reduce unsprung weight for excellent suspension compliance.

” Cast aluminum swingarm carries an eccentric quick-adjust drive chain
mechanism that takes most of the work out of that task.
” Handlebar-mounted
flip-type parking brake lever and rear brake caliper adjust automatically.

High-performance 21×7-10 front and 20×10-9 rear Dunlop® radials with a specially
designed tread pattern deliver superb, class-leading traction for razor-sharp
handling in a variety of terrain and conditions.
” Lightweight aluminum
wheels help enhance suspension performance by reducing unsprung weight.

Race-inspired 45mm serrated footpegs provide excellent boot traction.

Controlled-fill aluminum subframe is light and strong. So is the composite front
grab bar.

Additional Features:

Raptor 700R features a digital meter with speedometer, dual trip meters, odometer,
clock, warning indicators for coolant and low fuel, plus neutral and reverse indicators.

” Long, YZ-style seat allows maximum rider comfort and movement with
superb sport-riding ergonomics.
” Multi-reflector 30-watt Krypton headlights
set back in the front cowl add the perfect no-compromises sporting accent, and
an LED taillight provides great visibility.
” Large-capacity, 2.9-gallon
fuel tank and Yamaha Fuel Injection (YFI) mean more time on the trail between
fill-ups.
” Thumb throttle lever has a smooth shape for a feel riders
will appreciate, with less fatigue at the end of the day.
” Styling is
sharp and aggressive.
” Special Edition gets a wave-type rear disc for
great braking ability and race-ready looks, plus special front grab bar and footwells.
