Depends on the 100 other factors you must consider.

i meant roughly, landing on hard mud, the rider about 150 pounds.

That question is impossible to answer.

what do you think its limitations would be, its not impossible to answer. in your expectations would the stock suspension be able handle 6' high jumps?

Are you flat landing, landing a downside, front wheels first, rear wheels first, all 4 wheels first, how fast are you going, how soft is the dirt? This will just get me started.

It was 3rd gear pinned out of a corner on a stock motor. Flat landing on concrete like dirt.

It was high and far enough to blow out the shocks I do know that. You'll know when they blow....:eek2:

4' onto flat ground could very easily bottom you stock front shocks! on a steep enough landing where the take off and the top of the landing are already 10' up you can might be able to go 20'. like jeff said this question can not answered! so quit asking!

well I did a 60 foot jump. 3 rd gear WFO the jump did have a landing but I over shot it so I would say I did 65 feet with a flat landing. And I did it more then ones. with the same over shoting result cause the landing is to small to land on. and never blew out the shock. I don't really know how high I has but to go 65 feet I was probably high enough.

It all depends on how you land.
