Yamaha Raptor 700R - High-Performance Build

The Yamaha Raptor 700R and factory Yamaha GNCC champion Traci Cecco are legends to those of us who worship the ATV and off-road community. When Cecco bum-rushed the racing scene back in 1999, she was the catalyst that helped woods racing women all over the country focus their attention on the GNCC series. Ceccos accomplishments and friendly trackside manner have made her an immediate icon and ambassador for the sport, and shes won eight championships throughout her incredibly successful career. When the Raptor 700 first hit these shores back in 2006, it left a similar impression on the fans of open-class big-bore sport ATVs. Growing up together in the Anthracite Coal Region of Central Pennsylvania, Ive known Traci and her family for years. So when a fresh, new Yamaha Raptor 700R became the canvas for our ATV Rider Magazine build project, it was a no-brainer to set Traci up on a hot date with the finished product to test it out! As it turned out, Traci enjoyed thrashing our Raptor almost as much as I enjoyed shooting photos of her bludgeoning it. Besides, Tracis personality, beauty and mad riding skills were no match for the heinous, odorous, objectionable test riders we typically attract.
