What's involved with doing the 686 102mm mod to a 660 raptor? Is it a simple as picking up a 102mm piston boring the stock cylinder out? I have an 01 I bought in 07 and it's due for a top end freshening, a float stuck few years back and flooded the crankcase with gas and I think it may have washed the cylinder down and did a little ring/bore wear and it's puffed a little bit ever since. So it needs a top end job or at least new rings but there's probably mild scoring? and the timing chain is getting bit noisy, So I was kicking the idea around of doing the 686 mod during the top end re freshening. It has a hot cam but not sure which one interested to see which level probable just a level 1 because the engine is otherwise un modded as far as I know just bolt ons but even with a cam, dynojet kit, k&n filter with box mods, full exhaust (big guns header, white brothers R4 slip on) and lower gearing (-1 tooth countershaft +2 teeth rear) and 18"s on back it's pretty lively now, it tops out around 60mph now but riding it around it wants to yank your arms out of the sockets and keep front tires airborne all the time. I just didn't see where I needed a 80mph wheeler I'd rather have the retarded torque.

Hello, I have an 05 Yamaha Raptor 660r. I put the 686 big bore on it, but there are already two head gaskets that I changed and it has a coolant leak. I watched your video and decided to buy the cometic gasket. Do you recommend applying ..(cooper spray a gasket).. for better quality or not needed i would appreciate if you answer me thanks

Quick question. Why is there not as many holes in the head gasket as there is in the head and valve cover? My rappy is doing the exact same thing. Did a big bore kit. And now have what I believe have blown my second head gasket for it keeps blowing the reservoir tank cap off and blowing all the coolant out. Does it really come down to name brand head gasket for everything to be fine?

Hey I've got a 04 660 that I just bought a 686 kit for and yeah I used the gasket that came with the kit and immediately had pressure start bleeding into the radiator and anything other than idle would blow coolant out the pipe and anything much above idle would just blow the cap off and I'm just sick came out of time it took to do this and I know I had my head checked I had my block checked when it came just to verify everything was right and still didn't go together right I'm so bummed I wish I had watched this video
