I noticed in ur sig. that u have 450r front shocks. how do they work? did u have to do any modification to mount them up? one more thing, on the stock a-arms, do they lower or raise the ride height and can u notice it when ur riding? wait, one more, does it improve the cornering of ur bike? sorry for all the questions.

the shocks work great for the money, you have to do a little modification to the shock to make it fit but if you do a search you can find exactly what to do. they make the quad a little higher but it is hardly noticable. it does improve the handeling but not as much as a set of aftermarket shocks would. it is a great imporvement if you are on a budget.

ya kinda sucks. they don't care if i use b-day money or holiday money, but they want me to save up for a car, so i'm pretty restricted. can't "waste" money on my quad because it's "not important". they have a good point, i guess

i might of paid for it but they can stil take it away. i'd rather ride it stock than not ride at all. i'm only 15 so i'm basically screwed.:mad: :(
