Wow.. all that money in those quads to jump 3 feet off the ground. I could put those long travel set ups to better use :ermm:

you bottomed out 450r shocks on those little jumps? me and a buddy with a 450r jumped a 60ft table top with stockers and didnt bottom?

cool pics tho, i would loveee to hit up some dunes some time. i think little sahara is calling my name this summer..

yeah they were, when i was getting higher before they took those shots.

but think, jumpin table tops, you have a landing, jumping in the dunes at that particular spot we had no landing, it was just a flat landing. so the shocks will bottom out easier than if there was a landing.

at the presidents day trip i was jumping with dirtbikes and out jumping them but when i landed the front bottomed out so bad that it rebounded fast and made me wheelie.
video of the place i was jumping is on youtube. its not of me, but just picture a 400ex jumping farther and higher than those dirtbikers.

Wow.

I had my 450r fronts at full hard (how I keep them) with relatively little preload and I was flat landing from 10-12 feet up without bottoming.

My rear shock is shot though...:(
