I am going to get some long travel A-arms for my 450 but I am having trouble deciding what brand to buy. Should I get burgard premiem +3's, Leager's, or Lonestar's? All are price fairlly the same. I wanted +3 but I could only find +3 on burgards.


And what shocks work best with these? Elka, PEP, Axis?
I had always liked elka though.

gibson walsh and laeger are all top notch if you're not going with the T-pin however I would do walsh #1 gibson #2 and then laeger. As for the shocks go with PEP or axis unless you want to send you're elka to noleen or precision concepts to get them working as good as PEP or axis.

Why don't you check out Rated X Motorsports long shock arms. Also give TCS shocks a look.

Welcome to the big leagues:D

Id run the new Gen DC4s, they are +2.5,+1s and they handle awesome..Rudy @ DFR sells them the cheapest..754, unless you have a dealer hookup on them which is 606 bare or silver vein.

Did you add the Walsh tie-rod kit and PEP chain roller in on that price?

i did add the tie-rods, but didnt add the pep roller, i think you would have to add brake lines too (correct me if im wrong)

The Baldwin link works the best for a standard shock lenght setup with a PEP. He and Wayne designed it..Although we ran a stock link with our dual rate rear PEP and it worked better then most other linked bikes Ive ridden..Still rides better then my Axis single rate/ GTT link bike, all day long.

Elka wont come near ANY of our bikes..

PEP and Axis only. In that order.

not even the pro dual linkage? What linkage would go good with the pep zps rear shock? Also R3concepts, how long is the waiting list usually?
