i know two people with them. one on a 450r and it hasn't ever had a prob. other is on a raptor. and a while back, he bent the crap outta it on a pretty dang small jump. but he got a new one and hasn't had any probs since i don't think.

yeah but i don't think they'd hold up as good as a lsr or rpm if you land a little crooked

I have had one for a while on my 450r, I beat the hell out of it. It has held up way better than DURABLUE did. I land off camber on purpose to see if it would bend or snap off the same jump that killed atleast 3 durablues for my freinds and I.


Needless to say I wont ever touch another durablue product. I think these G-Forces are fine. I heard when the first came out of a few that had problems. Remember the one's that complain the most about durablue, g-force are probly the one's that would break an RPM. Nothing is indestructable.

I have one on my z400 and have had no problems. makes me wish I have put one on my 450r instead of a 350 dollar lonestar.

Does anyone know if the 04,05 axle will fit the 06 TRX450ER?

i like mine too. weight wise, it is definatly heavier than stock. i am not really hard on my bike and the axle is still new, but it has served me well. for the price, it is great. it has a lifetime warrenty against breaking AND bending...

A customer of mine broke his, just snapped while driving.
I've got some returned that are bended. But I must say that most of the G-Force axle's run great.

i have the g- force and bent it becuase i landed really crooked on a crappy landing. i paid for shipping there and in a week i had a new one.no problems so far. hell buy 2 for 400 one breaks or bends pull it out pop the other one in and sent it back so you can still ride. there worth the money.

I'm just wondering what all you people that have the G-Force axle one a 250x/300ex are using for a lock nut? I am guessing the stocker will fit, but is anyone using an aftermaket one? Which one?

Thanks,

persoanlly i would just get a lsr or rpm. a little more for alot better part in my opoinin. With a lifetime warrenty hard to beat. you get what you pay for. Although i have heard good and bad about them, i wouldnt do it.

i wouldn't get the lrs, but that is my opinion. they come with an aluminum hub, which you will need to replace over time. it isn't cheap either. also, i don't believe the lsr covers bent axles, only broken ones. maybe they will, but the warrenty card my friend has only states broken axles. the rpm is probably one of the best quality, but i have seen those break too. not many people run these, but the team firestick industries axle has had good reports from what i have seen so far.

I have lsr, i didnt saythey were cheaper, thier mor money, but alot of time you get what you pay for. The warrenty card says they will straighten a bent axle, and replace a broken one. LSR and RPM are both very good axles, i have also heard good things about the teams axles.

also anyone wonder why its spelled axle, but we say it AX-EL?
