I'm sure that's one of the many customs.


What stuck out for me were the new Full Carbon HiPer's. (http://www.atvriders.com/gallery/2007indydealerexpophotogallery/pages/KE2F0102.html) Those are sexy.

Also the Maxxis IMX Razr's. (http://www.atvriders.com/gallery/2007indydealerexpophotogallery/pages/KE2F0399.html) Those look like they would hook up awsome on an MX track.

I like how the lower a-arms bolt on? Thats new. It scares me too. Also the upper a-arms looks to be curved forward. That would be the first +something forward front'end for the thumpers. Thats also means that its too heavy in the back stock.

Fear not.. dealing with steel/aluminum connections every day, I can tell you that connection is much stronger than a conventional connection on an aluminum flange.

You have a hardened steel bolt going into a hardened steel insert with a shear moment vs. a hardened steel pin going through an aluminum mounting flange (much more likley to oval out and fail).
