plzz guys im on a lot of sites and this 1 is one of the best for knowing what there talking about and really would like the help thanks

most popular for hillclimbs is like long swingarms same thing for draggin not sure about dunes but I think there's are usually longer than stock I would probably go with +2 or+3

yeah i know i need an extended 1 im thinking a +7 im want to get the bike at around 75 -90 hp but i dont think i can get the 686 to that hp w/o nitrous and i was think ang about it if i can find a good deal on ebay

I just suggested +3 because I thought it would be more dune friendly but if you are a serios dragger and hill climber I would get a +7

ok thanks for the help man its just the bike is a little wheelie happy and with a 686 in it inted of just a .40 bore it will be wores

[Butters]

find the longest one you can get, and put that on there.

Anything bigger than +5 should be great for dragging. And if you want 90 rw ponies out of your rap, your probably going to need a bigger bore than a 686. I think they have 770 kits but im not up to date on my bores. Check out the turbo kits too, I heard they add some power. :devil:

thanks i just bought a +8 on ebay t dub and as for the turbos to much cash il plain on running nitrous so it should be good maybe a little to much arm but that way i can put a bigger bore in when im ready and i have a 727 piston but thats it none of the kit

take off your front breaks, cut fenders down all the way or take them off, take the bumper off, cut all un needed brackets off.....
or just get a drag frame

just get the weight down as much as possible

[400exrules]

i read somewhere that this is the faster 450r in the world, of course it has some deep motor work, but it weighs in around 200lbs, or less

i read somewhere that this is the fastest 450r in the world, of course it has alot of motor work, but it weighs in around 200lbs, or less. weight is very important

[fasterblaster09]

I had my blaster down to 208,of course its a naturally small bike,but it still very light.

that R could actualy lose even more wheight, serious drag guys usualy just put metal bars in place of shocks, and his steering stem is huge, by just switch that out to a skinnier one im sure he could shave another 2lb, then his gas tank way too big for a drag bike no one needs that much gas just to do a couple 1/8 mile runs

who knows with the motorwork the bike might just eat gas especially if hes running certain fules etc

yah, im sure he's on alky or somethin, so he prob burns that fuel in no time...and its a 300ft dirt and sand bike. And those ''metal bars'' are called struts...and he has a strut on the rear, but on the front he has marvin shaw drag shocks, whick probably do better then struts. Plus their light
