alright guys i need some help....i am currently running lsr dc-4 n elka quad rates as my current set up n i love it....but for next season i got a great sponser that can get me leager lt's non t-pin and a pair of elka elites for a killer price and he would rather c me ride with them on.....all i would like to know is how is the quality of these arms and how are peoples experiences with them....also ive never seen a set on a 450r so some decent pics of this front end would be helpful....

current set up

why cant you get the t pin?

IMO elites are waste of money

BTW i like your hood, i got one exactly like it never seen any other maiers like that

the hi and low speed compression is a waste, regular comp and rebound are great, but their nothign speacil about the hi and low speed. Ive talk to elka about it unless your a pro calaber rider its a waste.

Im saying the design with the raised nose piece, most ive seen are just falt with vents , mine is raised as well

laeger a arms are far better,
the laeger t-pins are even far better then that.
if you are riding at the pro level and using elkas you need someone else to valve them and set them up. even elka will tell you that. better off going with someone laeger has worked with. even works.

If you ran the Laeger LT's with Quadrate Elka's and had the Elka's done by somebody like Precision Concepts, I bet you will feel a HUGE difference from your setup now. Having my shocks done by Precision has been one of the best things I've done...

Feature for feature they are the same A-arms. A little different as far as geometry goes but thats about it.

if you want to try something else go for it, but dont expect much difference.

Personally I think it would just be a hassle.

If your looking at Laeger, you might want to check out JD Performance. The owner worked at Laeger for 10 years. He builds everything himself. The welding is second to none. I run the a-arms and swing arm on my EX and have had no problems. The swing arm is cool, it's the round tubing. The new parts for my 450r are on the way. Give them a call and talk to them.
