+2 or +3 arms? cant decide

[vinson581]

i cant decide on a-arms, i love the wide sexy look of +3's but i dont know if they are going to be TOO wide with a +4 axle.....i still ride woods, but am planning on racing motocross, after the arms, i plan on getting shocks, so they are valved properly.

thanks guys.

if you plan on doing any racing go with the +2...anything larger and you won't make the width limit (depending on your offset)

im running the stock offset btw. yea i belive +2 is going to be the trick. and a +4 axle will be nice as well, i just DONT want the frount narrower then the rear. that was my only concern....

I just got my +2's and already had a +4 axle. I haven't gotten to ride much with them lately but the riding I did get to do with them on was sick. It feels so much better than stock!! And I think but I wouldn't be 100% positive, that my front is wider than my back. But I have offset rims. I don't know what they are though because I bought the bike with those rims.

i just put +3's on mine and i also worried if it would be too wide. but its not at all. i would say damn near perfect. at normal stance or around half travel it is about 48" in the front with stock offset wheels and a tad over 50" in the rear with the G-Force axle. i mainly ride trails and i havnt had a problem yet. you will need new brake lines with the +3's, the stockers are very tight and i wouldnt suggest riding with them.

my friendhas +3 andhe rides woods he hatesthe width and regrets he bough them. He races a little or use too.

im going to just get a set of burgard +2 arms, and a gforce axle...... if i like the setup later on i may do a lagaer long travel setup...oh so sexy....

[jokerman_28]

go with +2s the 3's will get cumbersome if your riding on trails. not saying the 2s won't at all. my +2s housers flatten down are about 50"

[vinson581]

thanks guys, im planning on some nice +2's


NOW........

shocks... haha.... elka, axis, pep, or some cheapo works for the trails for the time being...

+2 inch arms are the way to go. And get some works triple rate with rezzies like I have!!!! They are soooooooo smooth and nice feeling.:D

[416HiRoller]

I picked up a set of TCS triple rates with remote rezzies for $350 with only two races on them. So far, I love them. They work great with my +2's and sooooooo much better than stock. They are a cheaper way to go for a nice set of shocks.

i will keep that in mind, ebay i think is going to be my best friend....
