That's obviously not a Yamaha manufactured quad. It maybe a genuine Yamaha engine, but that doesn't make it a genuine Yamaha quad. Very deceitful seller.

I think he might be holding the Yamaha cover on and for a bike that has only been ridden on smooth grass it is dirtier than my raptor that has been thru all sorts of "profanity removed"..

The raptor 90 is made by eaton in the USA I think it is called the eaton viper.

I felt a bit riped off when I bought my kids quad.
I thought I was buying genuine Yamaha but it turns out it is made buy eaton Evil or Very Mad

I have had dealings with a guy who imports chinese stuff. Apparently quite often a company ie Yamaha lisences a factory to produce its product and order say 5000 but the factory will make 6000 leaving all badging or labelling off so these bikes would be Yamaha build but sold as something else . the guy I was talking to has even imported 3 yamaha raptors but they were red and sold as some funny unpronouncable brand. Local yammie dealer said they were identical otherwise. He said the big problem with dealing in China is to know which has come out of the back of a big brand factory and which is a nasty knockoff
