How much are Lonestar DC-4 a-arms and where can i get them? Available in standard travel?

What size a-arms are you running for mx and what offset wheel? what width does it put you at?

Where do i get a PEP chain relocator?

What is a good steering stem?

Where can i get a TC exhaust and how much? (TC doesnt answer phones)

What width axle...offset wheels are you running for mx? What width does it put you at?

What do you need to do for the "cam mod"?

Don't know how much DC-4 are, not a LSR fan, myself.

I run +3 Viper LT arms with 3:2 offset, i'm at 49 inches.
I got my PEP re-locater at Lost Creek Cycles.
Viper +1 anti-vibe.
I dunno where you can get the TC. I'd rather have a HMF or a Sparks, TC is just too loud for my liking.
I run a +4 axle, with 3:6 offset, I think.. whatever stock rear is, lol.

If you do not want to go cheap on that bike.... run walsh, laeger, or the axis suspension or something like that.


Roostin, What kind of shocks do you plan on running. I/m me at Mxyfz on AIM and i can help you out with more problems.b

www.magnoliatractor.com Ask for Bob. He can get or point you in the right direction for any Yamaha parts you would want. Rudy at www.dirtfiendracing.com can help you with pretty much any aftermarket stuff you need as far as shocks, etc. Jeff at www.quadshopatv.com can take care of your Elka needs, but you probably already knew that.

I would get the Trailtech rectifier while you are at it. If you are wanting to avoid electrical issues at all. You can find it on www.trailtech.net it's 30.00.

I have the LSR DC4's and they are LT +2's. I am running Honda front wheels...4/1 offset.

I payed $750 for mine. John only makes +3's in long travel, but he has +2's available. Here's a pic of the +3's.

Yes, quadrates are long travels.

boy howdy..im so confused i dont know what to do..

For the front end i am almost settled on Herrmann now...what do you guys think of that? Hermann +2 LT a-arms and Elka shocks...sound pretty nice to me..
anyone have any pics of hermann a-arms except the ones on their site?

Herman Products are some of the nicest ones around, as nice as Wlash or ROll, they just aren't as well known. They use all the high quality heim ends as well. Plus, they are WAY MORE cost friendly. I really like Roll and Walsh, but their prices are just out of controll.

Also, If you get a +3 front end with 3-2 offset rims, you are going to be over 50 inches. I have a +2 Roll front end with 4-1 offset Douglas Shamrocks and my width is right at 49. My brother has a Janssen +3 with 4-1 and he is slightly over 50 inches. Call Walsh or Herman and tell them what you want, they will tell you exactly what offset you will need to run to be legal.

Good luck,
Scott

Try the site sponsor T & T on walsh products, also Burgard LT are pretty sweet.

elka all the way:macho

run a stock offset rim and +3 and adjust your toe to less then 1/4 to start.

Burgard YFZ stems are killer and work like a champ.

Any place selling aftermarket can get you the pep relocator.

BIGGEST THING THO....get the elka linkage for the rear;)
