My Long Travel Conversion..Pics!

[NacsMXer]

Well this whole project has sort of been a long time coming for me, and being that it is starting to actually materialize I thought I would share some pics of the build up with you guys.

Where I started at: ST JD Performance +2 in candy blue PC / ST PEP ZPS 20 click front end

Need to sell it all to afford new components, so the harvesting begins :devil:

The quality of the JD arms were great, but the overall comparison was no contest haha

i think its awsome your still rocking it with the 400ex. i miss how my 400ex use to be but after i rebuilt it from wrecking it from ice racing last season its been nothing but a nightmare and i finaly blew it up the night before a race lastweekend so now i got a stock 450r sitting in my garage thats waiting for mods. but maybe once my 450r is done. ill probaly get the 400 goin cause thats what got me into racing and made me realize i might actually be good at something lol.

Got new pics finally! I've been busy with work lately haven't had a good chance to upload these yet.

First impressions with this at the track were amazing, felt like riding on a cloud compared to the old setup! :p

You would be right! I've had more than a few close calls in the past not having heelguards so I decided to take the plunge on the complete IMS/Roll setup.

I can't say enough about this combo as well. Quality, fit and finish far exceeds my old AC nerfs. Everything bolted up no problem. No grinding, bending, or cursing necessary this time :blah:

The pegs were just great on the track, I felt completely at home on them the first time out. Their wide width really helps to disperse the "shock" on your feet better when landing big jumps. The heelguards definitely came in handy a few times on some off-camber awkward landings as well. They don't really get in your way either which a lot of people think they will have trouble with.

Definitely an A+ setup in my book, pricey, but well worth the cost IMO for the amount of safety and functionality it offers :macho

Here's some more pics!
