yup i saw it. Funny it says aftermarket swing arm, but it looked stk. Liked the shot of him roosting the TRX450, but who knows how good of a ridder the other guy was.

at the time of the photoshoot they were running stock equipment.

Come Glen Helen expect full walsh swing-arm and A-arms, Fox Shocks all around, Douglas wheels, and Holeshot SXs Tag Bars, Blingstar Alluminum products, Yosh Exhausts, and Quad Tech Components.

rawdeal, yeah i think it is funny how they say it smoked the 450r. i am sure the ltr450 is a quicker machine, but come on, they said Gust was riding the ltr and some random dude was driving the 450r! Doug gust could probably ride a Power Wheels and beat some riders! lol, probably not, but he is one helluva rider! this season ought to be interesting with him going up against Natalie!

Go back and read it carefully! At a glance They are trying to make you think Jones is jumping the "STOCK" quad like that! but it's his decked out race bike... Very stratigically written article. Should make alot of poeple run out and buy it Monday. Hope it holds up.

jason dunkleberger was the honda pilot and he is no slouch on any bike he and andy legazdas were there doing there own tests on different things with the trx. and look at the last page in the arcticle in dirtwheels the exhaust pipe is not the same as stock so you got to question whether or not you would jump an 85 foot triple without long travel or if you like your knees in your chin then try it:D :D

............My personal opinion is we should all stop reading dirt wheels! They are always misleading us and feeding wrong information. The zuki was anything BUT stock! Congrats, his full on race ltr beating a trx with who knows what done to it. Also, who knows who the rider was.
Dirt wheels in bogus. they sit there and talk about a stock machine, and get a ride review of a quad that is anything BUT stock. If I remember right, the suspension was different. I believe it has fox floats. The exhaust was different................... ect ect ect!!
That quad was setup! ohhhhh, and he beat some joe on his joe trx! whooopppppiieeeee!!!!!
Compare a race quad with another race quad, with TWO race riders! Then you'll have something to show!

Dirt Wheels would be better if the whole mag was just a letters section.
