Raptor 80 restrictors? Where?

[raptor359]

Hey I just got a 02 raptor 80 to play around on and I was wondering where all the restrictors are and how to take them off?

[hoytultratec]

not sure exactly where but i woould check between the carb and motor and the exaust somewhere. I think I saw they might of had a rev limiter n them. neat little machine but deffinatly need to be woke up a bit.

yeah but I dont know what im looking for.

Ive done some searching and the 80 raptor came with a intake plate,where is it? im guessing its between the carb and the cylinder or in the airbox blocking some of the airflow. so its one or the other.

The air restrictor is in the air box just in front of the air filter. removing this helps. the quad is also restricted by the CDI unit

It is a clear plastic piece that fits behind the air cleaner. If you pull up the parts catalog on Yamaha's website for the machine, you will find it pictured on the page that has the front body work. It is not on the page with the carb or engine (go figure).
