Edge Piranha For Sale!
« on: November 14, 2010, 05:45:34 PM »
I posted this on another buggy site.
I completed this buggy about a year ago and only put a few hours on it.  It ran great and was a blast to drive.
Just didn't use it as much as I hoped so I want to sell it and start another project.
Is anyone interested?  I'm also trying to figure out what this type of buggy is worth...will need this before I accept an offer...so if anyone has a suggested asking price, I've love to hear from you.

A few of the main features include:
Engine out of a Yamaha Raptor 660R, 4-Stroke, 5 Speed, Reverse
60-tooth rear sprocket and chrome plated o-ring chain,
Fox Shocks,
Race seat and 4-point harness,
Vapor Digital Tach/Speedometer,
Powdercoated - 90% of the parts, many parts were zinc plated!
Carbon Fiber hood,
(2) sets of driving lights,
FMF performance Exhaust

Also have a 2-place tilt bed trailer that is for sale.
Come with hitch, take both!
Let me know if you have any questions.

Check out my build pics

Piranha w/Raptor 660 engine....looking to get $5,000.
Buggy has less than 5 hours of total runtime.

I also have a tilt bed trailer for an additional $500.

How is the clutch set up?  What type of shocks (air, emulsion)?  How many miles or hours on the motor (what year Raptor)?

The clutch is set up to the left footpedal. Center footpedal is the rear brake, and right pedal is the gas.  Shifting is done with a hand shifter to your right.
Rear Shocks = Fox Air Shocks 2.0 Pro Series 14" Travel.  These were modified by Doug Heim to reduce the travel to 10 or 12", now I can't remember. The front coil over shocks were custom build by Doug as well. I built this buggy when I lived in WI, and lucky for me only about an hour from Doug. He was quite the valueable resource throughout my build.
Motor came out of an 01' Raptor. Not sure on the hours because I bought it used but the quad was clean, adult driven, and I haven't had a single issue with it.

How does the buggy move with the raptor motor in it? Is it slugish or is it really rev happy? You wouldn't happen to have some videos of it running and driving?

The buggy goes really good! I chose the Raptor because it puts out great torque and it has reverse.  Rev happy...yes, very much so.  Here's a link to more pics and even a short video. The video isn't that great, was the 1st time out and I'm in a field. Anyway, gives you an idea. 
Let me know if you have more questions.
