number of v raptors made
number of v raptors made
I came across a italian wikipedia pages about the cagiva raptor. After translating it through google i noticed this entry:
Raptor 1000 [edit | edit wikitext]
Cagiva Xtra Raptor 1000La major version, which came into production in 2000 and for the first uscitane in 2006, was produced in one series but in most versions, normal, V-Raptor (aesthetically identical to Xtra Raptor) and "Xtra Raptor" ( accessioriata version of carbon parts and adjustable suspension.
In 2001 he introduced the Xtra Raptor. in 2004, he was presented a prototype called X3 Raptor never entered production. All raptor 1000 rode a propeller Japanese Suzuki (TL1000) used in Superbike for a short period. The Xtra Raptor has a label that shows the numbering of the motion, which was produced in a limited series. The numbering should go from 1/999 to 999/999. The Xtra Raptor also compared to the normal version had an adjustable Marzocchi fork and a Sachs monoshock adjustable.
All engines showed the liquid cooling and brake system consisted of two disc brakes front (only version 125 cm³ possessed the forecarriage single disk) and a single at the rear. In common to all models, regardless of the displacement, the presence of an upside down fork (40mm for the "small" version, 43mm for the other) and a monoshock at the rear.
Maneuverability and power are the natural qualities of this bike that combines style and performance in a pure state especially in the "V-Raptor" which possessed 77.5 Kw with only 194 kg. Version V-1000 unofficial sources say that it has been produced about 300 V-Raptor 1000, while the Xtra have been produced about 600 and not 1000 as previously thought, and as was stated in the press when the motion was presented.
Only 300 build? Thats seems very low. I know it's rare but this rare? Are there others sources that state the numbers of production?

Re: number of v raptors made
OMG>>>>>>>What has happened to the forum format???
Yes, 300 seems a little low, and 600 for the Xtra makes it all the more nutty!
Mind you, when you have to look for VRap parts, it certainly comes apparent how bloody rare
Hence why I fought and fought to not get my bike categorised and written off when I had the accident.
I propose the VRaptor protection programme!!!

What a good idea!!! They need it. Maybe even a reservation. The TT circuit in Assen would do nicely.dizzyblonde wrote:I propose the VRaptor protection programme!!!
Re: number of v raptors made
Wow, that does seem low, but there do seem to be more Xtras than Vs on the street. I believe that the numbering for the Xtras was meant to go from 0-999 to make up the 1,000.

Re: number of v raptors made
You don't see many raptors around full stop let alone v's and x's. I heard less than 500 x raptors so the 600 figure may not be too far off as sales were poor . "
I am not sure about the forks being of different size though ? i thought they were the same size but may be true . "the presence of an upside down fork (40mm for the "small" version, 43mm for the other" There were some works yoshimura tlr than run in superbikes for a short while but they were just too big and heavy at the same time lacking hp .

Re: number of v raptors made
Perhaps the smaller version refers to the 650?
Being an SV engine, they used smaller forks accordingly . Pretty sure the 43 is only the 1000

The 650 has also 43mm.

Re: number of v raptors made
The most v-raptors registered on uk roads was 138 in 2002. now only 60 are on the road, with 90 "off road".
Re: number of v raptors made
Wow, can you find out the Xtra numbers too?

Re: number of v raptors made
What's the odd too see this considering the numbers. At work someone else has a 650 raptor. Don't know who yet. It's in bad shape though. dents, paint flaking off it.

Re: number of v raptors made
According to the dutch licenseplate registration site there are 46 V raptor 1000, 75 raptor 1000, 125 raptor 650, 24 Cagiva M2 models without details and 1 raptor 125 in the Netherlands. Xtra raptors are not mentioned, maybe the 24 without details are Xtra raptors.
