i have some bad news, if you ordered it friday you might have it on friday but fridat 6 months from now,there is a huge back order on arens frames.

if you get it and have any questions let me know but its fairly easy to swap everything, you do new to oreder a rear brake pedal assem. fram an 96 cr250

It was chadexers wife that went to arens.

The way you get hooked up like james did is to just to help the right person out at the right time and that person will hook you up.

Most of them are lighter.

06-04-2002, 12:59 PM
so you spend $1,500+ just to make the frame lighter
i would just rather cut out the cheeseburgers and save money

Dont worry guys, james will be on later to tell everyone how and where to get arens frames so cheap and fast!

Yea right..

Warriorman the wait must be killing you!! But it doesnt matter where he got it from cuz it isnt like you would be able to get it from there.

Well that Sucks. I think my Brother really wants a Laeger anyways. If it`s up to my Dad we will get the Narrow Front Laeger Frame and T-Pin. Now that would be Sweet, but it costs way to much.

James70214

I am not aloud to say where I am getting it, but it cost a few hundred less than 1800. The stock r frame is like 14 years old, so mine just cracked and rather than keep fixing it after it breaks everytime I am gettign the Arens Frame.

Good deal James :D We will see you at Southwoods Sunday. I didn't see you after the race at Diamondback but I did tape most of it. Congrates on your wins. Don't tell how much you paid, keep'em quessing, just like our C-dale we got from Walsh :D

Most people buy aftermarket frames because the stockers keep cracking. That is the main advantage of a aftermarket frame, It will take more abuse than a stocker.

Some aftermarket frames have different geometry such as the narrow walsh, lobo, and laeger. They improve handling while also providing a frame that can take the abuse of mx racing. Stock geometry frames such as the arens or LSR make the stronger but dont have better geometry than stock.

Carl cant wait to race that YZF. We have had it for four weeks now and haven't raced it yet. He has ran 25 gallons of race fuel on practice though, so he is ready.

Pic's are coming soon. In one of the mags, Columbia Motor Sports has an ad for a Walsh prepared Cannibal. There is a picture with Mike Walsh sitting on a machine. THATS the one I have:D

We got the C-dale as a back-up machine for him, something for me to ride and we both are going to ice race this winter!!.

Thats a lot of gas. I wonder who will win Carl,tommy, or mikey Brown. It's gonna be a close one.
Guy's
Both of his bikes are very nice. The 426 is really awesome.
