Raptor 700 Headlight Testing

In today's video I compare several headlight set ups for my Raptor 700. Starting with the stock lights and then installing and testing the Restoquad V1 and V2 headlights. Lastly, I tested my new Rigid SR Series Pro handlebar mounted light bar.

Pete I am glad to say I am now a 2006 raptor 700r owner and o my is it an upgrade from a 400ex made my day to see u had a new video out!!

[@PeteHager]

Thanks for watching my videos! Congrats on getting a Raptor 700! 😁🤘

[@gipper222zk7]

​@@PeteHager Hey bro, I just bought a new "2024 Yamaha Raptor 700R SE 69th Anniversary Edition" it has the GYTR front grab bar, rear grab bar, front & back GYTR Suspension, & the big bore kit, & more that all came stock with the SE version, AKA= Special Edition. But I am definitely gonna put a "FAST FLEX HANDLEBAR" on it, but i also wanted to put a new full exhaust & a new full intake, & obviously when you pit a new intake & exhaust on pretty much everything you will definitely want to get it tuned, but this baby only has less than 1 mile on it, so i don't know if I should wait for the 10-20hours of the break in period then put the new exhaust, intake, & tune, before I break it in, or afterwards??? Any help would be greatly appreciated, even brands that would be best for this specific bike, which because it is a "2024 Yamaha Raptor 700R SE 69th Anniversary Edition" I don't even know if anyone has created a exhaust, intake, & ect... for this because its brand new off the showroom floor at the dealership, its just so new that even the lucky people who got w chance to but one they are keeping it completely stock, & not doing anything to it, but i already knew that I was going to make it at least 50+ inches wide, & at least an extra 6-8 inches longer, & then the "Fast Flex Bars" & the exhaust, intake, & tune, but this is the first brand new bike ive ever bought, i used to just buy slightly used quads, bikes, sleds, etc but I don't know if i should add the intake & exhaust, & tune before or after the 10-20hours of the break in period, so any help would be greatly appreciated please & thank you!!!

[@OdysseyOffroad]

Great video Pete. In my testing and experience the version 1s and 2s. The 2's actually have more light output on low beams and a better pattern to be able to see wider and in front of you. More like the pattern of a modern pickup truck led headlights I would categorize it as. The version 2 high beams then project further down the trail then the version ones high beams did. Overall I think the version 2s are a much better light for light output.

[@JapanSkies]

This is a great video. Informative, interesting, and fun to watch for us who just can't quick our quads stock.

[@TerrellSpivey]

Man i hate that im so behind on your videos Pete! But i declare this needs more views because making such a video was aloooot of work and i appreciate all you did to make it! I declare your Raptor is one sick looking quad! Lol ill never get over that Red and then all your upgrades take it to another level! Lol but wow! The light comparison from stock all the way to the v2 and light bar is crazy! Lol it was like day time! Lol again thanks for all the hard work in showing us the differences!

[@Newnessoflife1]

We are going to the badlands bash can’t wait to meet you.

[@PeteHager]

Awesome! It's gonna be a great time! 😬

[@RestoQuad]

Wow! This video is amazing! Thank you so much for the in depth explanations! We really appreciate everything you offer to the sport quad community! You're a staple! Much love 💪🏽🏁🚀🚀

[@JacksonOffroad25]

V1’s upgrade. V2 even bigger upgrade. V2 plus light bar= portable sunlight lol 😂 Great products made by a great company!

[@cannorsc.4554]

Love the raptor 700 man, that thing is badass!

[@dakotaknight676]

Man them headlights are so nice on a raptor I didn’t know that resto quad made to different always on designs on the lights there both so nice. It’s awesome you bring attention to the guys that really made the lights and deserve the recognition your videos are 100% as always. One day some how either ima make it up to badlands to ride with you or if you announce a date you ride Hatfield and McCoy it would be awesome to meet and ride

[@jameslachance9107]

This lights looks really good i think im gonna put on my 2014 700r

[@harrybrown1494]

Hi pete thank you for doing awesome videos i have been watching your videos since day one and I just pick up my new 2024 raptor 700r sc so that's again ride safe my brother 🙏

[@PeteHager]

Thank you very much for being a long time follower! I really appreciate you watching my videos 😊 congratulations on your new 2024 Raptor 🤘

[@Clean_Duners]

I have 2 baja design pods mounted by the front bumper but definitely ordering some resto quad headlights

[@PeteHager]

The Baja Design stuff is top notch. The pods combined with the headlights will be sick 👌

[@Clean_Duners]

Seeing the side by side difference definitely sold me, gonna be able to go on night rides at the dunes now!

[@leedimatteo5078]

looking forward to the Badlands trip!!

[@PeteHager]

Me too! I hope the Scrambler has been treating you well Lee! 🤘

[@leedimatteo5078]

sweet lights!!

[@Raptor_Ruckus]

Awesome comparison! I run the DRL circuit on a toggle switch so that I can switch between white or amber on the fly depending on the vibe. I’ll see you at the badlands!!

[@PeteHager]

Dude that's an awesome idea! You gotta show me that set up when we're at the park. Looking forward to riding together 😁

[@blasterman12400]

Hope they make a trx450 version

[@lengmoua16]

Man wish Yamaha would come out with this color Again

[@briantessereau4620]

Nice video man. I Have bought some of your items for my rappy, great products. More curious how the engine setup is doing for you? Thinkin about kinda going the same route over winter. Currently big 3, 100 gas and cuervo tuned, loving it. Hopefully catch up 1 day and ride. Badlands and around indiana usually but bout to go to silver lake soon and back to buttercup around thanksgiving. Planning a stop in Oklahoma, heard its bad ass put there to ride also. (Dunes i believe in OK). Thanks again

[@Floridawoodsbanshee]

Yamaha stock head lights are horrible for the Banshees. I have a new led light kit. Maybe I will do a video. Subscribe for a future video.

[@p9raceway759]

V2’s look legit.

[@angelhernandez-ig4ux]

Been waiting for a video mannn!!!

[@PeteHager]

Sorry for the long wait. Life's been pretty busy the past month. Gonna try to get the next one out much sooner! 🤘

[@jAKe0347]

@@PeteHager Are you still doing YT full time? The vids just seem more infrequent these days.

[@PeteHager]

I had some expenses come up so I grabbed some extra work with a friend. I'm still going to be making videos. I also run our website so that takes extra time as well. Hoping to spend more time editing in the coming weeks 😁

[@ALDA2479]

I hava Baja Designs 8 inch on my yfz and a Rigid light bar on my Ltr both really nice and super bright for the money tho I think the Rigid is the best bang for the buck I think I paid $210 the Baja was like $350 neither are really cheap but imo lighting is crucial for night riding in the dunes and not were in wanna cheap out at

[@PeteHager]

Awesome feedback! The Baja Designs lights looked sick. I think I ended up going with Rigid due to them being a bit cheaper. I hope to night ride Glamis someday! 🤘

[@waldemardill3825]

You should put under glow on your Yamaha rapter 700

[@joeypooschke7914]

Yeah I like the V2’s been looking at them, just gotta find out how I wanna do the DRL on my YFZ carb model

[@PeteHager]

I know the brewers spliced their DRL's into the headlight toggle switch wiring. I could send you the video Jake sent me if you want to email [e-mail] 👍

[@joeypooschke7914]

@@PeteHager thanks 🙏 Pete I’ll let u know, just waiting on my last piece of the puzzle before my YFZ goes into to see Vance and get on the dyno. I do have LED bulbs in and they work ok. Just wanna get all my winter upgrades done and next I’ll get my precision stem stabilizer this summer and then I’ll start thinking more about the headlights..

[@nathanureche5932]

love the new headlights! quick question... how many hours are on the raptor and have you rebuilt it yet? thanks love the channel.

[@PeteHager]

Thanks! I'd say my chassis probably has around 250 hours on it. I had my motor redone around 125 hours. There's an older dyno video that explains the rebuild on my channel from a couple seasons ago. If you have any specific questions relating to the hours or motor just let me know 👍

[@built4riding388]

Just installed my v2s yesterday. How can i make the orange drls blink?😂

[@brandoncounts711]

The light bar mount is cool but idk if i could make it work with the factory stem? I have a 7 inch light bar with clamps on my handlebars that works good but thinking of changing it to that bracket you have.

[@PeteHager]

It should work with the factory stem as long as your hardware is long enough. The Precision stem I run is similar in it's mounting design to stock

[@EvanCampbell-ps8yp]

What stateis the bad lands bash

[@ohnoadventures]

👍👍😁

[@faresalbahri6818]

I have the same light as yours PETE and when i close it there is something orange on the side IS IT A PROBLEM OR NO??

[@PeteHager]

I don't quite understand your question. Are you saying your amber running lights on when your lights are off?

[@mattsatv]

Guess I’m the odd man out😂 seriously though, I didn’t want to spend $200 on new headlights. Are your used v1 lights for sale?

[@PeteHager]

You live near the dunes tho! They would be an awesome upgrade for you!

[@isaacquintana-rj6qe]

What exhaust do you have?

[@PeteHager]

Mine has a Rossier R5 full exhaust. I keep an updated parts list in my video description👍
