anotherfive Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Need some sound engineering advice. Just got some second hand raptors in good nick. Holes are not ovalled but are of a different size to gassers. So do I get some very thin bushes made,or drill the new pegs to fit gasser bushes or drill frame and fit fatter bolts and forget bushes. i dont want to do the wrong thing as no going back. Have temporarily rolled up some tin to make bushes but they wont last long.Has anyone else had this problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laser1 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 FWIW: Id make changes to the pegs to fit the bike - not the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Ring Raptor your pegs should have come with specific raptor bushes. They may sell them seperately 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelly1 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 i believe with raptors you must look out for an attack from the side or at least thats what happened in jurassic park be warned 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axulsuv Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 And they hunt in packs ... But all kidding aside , Check with Raptor for the correct bushings and springs & bolts , Before you modify the bike !!! Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotherfive Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Some funny guys out there. Whats a big hen bearing by the way? So I've found a very helpful engineering company south of Leeds that made me two bushes in stainless steel the same afternoon for a tenner - brill service. So I now ride without looking like I have ricketts !!!! Thanks All Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
