not for the first 10 years at least. never buy anything in the first generation. 3rd is best. lesson i learned as a kid. used to ride quads/dirt bikes with friends and one buddy got a first generation raptor 700 right when they came out. well less than 500 miles on it and the gear box went, no warranty. shelled out a pretty penny to get it fixed. first generation and many times the second has kinks to work out, especially in the long run.
