i did a quick search and here's a forum from 2010 talking about the issue: https://www.raptorforum.com/threads/2001-raptor-transmission-vs-yamaha.63797/
for the record I am not stating what happened to this OP is exactly my situation since there is about a 9 year difference, but the replies back up what I'm saying. it's mostly anecdotal, but still you get the point.
Interesting. I wasn't aware of the issues with the 2001 Raptor. I have a close friend that was top mechanic at our local dealer in 2001, I'll ask him what he remembers about this and whether the dealer and Yamaha warranteed the problem back then.
plz do. i know it was solved the next year, but like i said the lesson stuck.
