bling star's are like 150 i believe

if your on a budget what i would do is find 2 sets of stock pegs, sharpen the teeth on them, and weld them together

grab yourself a set of stock 450r pegs and bolt them on if your on a tight budget. they are almost twice as wide as stock 400 pegs and bolt right on

Here is a pic of some 450r pegs that I welded a turnup onto. If I had to do it again I would have welded the turnup farther out on the peg.

I see your from cape cod mass... check out mototownusa.com Atv open practice on feb 4th I think.

you have a few options....


1. buy used. if you shop around you can find a decent set of name brand shocks set up for you or close to it.

2. buy 450r front shocks and send them off to be set up for you. works very well for average rider and is about 1/3 of the cost of going full aftermarket

this sport is not for the meek when it comes to spending money, but atleast there are options these days.
