What should i get +2 or +3

[OutlawEX]

Im gonna be buying some a-arms this week and i dont know which size i should get,I either want +2 or +3 they are the same price,im going to go with herrmann racing.Also i do mainly Mx racing.Please let me know what size

[optikid123]

dont get anything thats 1 forward cause the 400ex will tip back i heard cause it puts the center back, quad041 has some 1forwrds on his and he says that it has a better tendancy to tilt back. but he is prob one of the best jumpers on this site so go figure.

i would go with +3

If you are getting Herrman then you can get +3+0. I would just stay with the +? and +0 cause if you make it longer it does have a tendancy to tilt back because the center of gravity is changed.


Yeah talk to Quad041 He will tell ya.

i'd say +2 because it seems like +3 would have a lot of bump steer and would pretty much confine you to the mx track or flat track seeing how easy it would be to hang up on stuff.

i would also say +2 with 3-2 offset wheels which is 49.3 inches wide i believe

[OutlawEX]

I didnt even know herrmann made +0 so im gonna change it to +0

[Juggalo]

don't go +1 forward on the a-arms unless your planning on extending the swingarm (which is actually a good idea)

[OutlawEX]

O im not going +1 at the a-arms it will be +3+0 if i do the +3..My swing arm is already + 1 1/4

[Dave400ex]

I would only get the +3 if you get Long Travels. If not, stick with the +2.

[Juggalo]

if your swingarm is extended then you should go +1 forward

I wouldn't go with +1forward. I talked to mark baldwin about it...he said just go with +2 or+3+0 and a +1 1/4 swingarm is a great setup for the 4hundo

LOL! the reason that made me laugh is because I know Mark pretty well and I just thought I was funny because he always says things are "great setup" His shop is only 5 mins from my house and one of my best friends works for him (Matt Bartosek) and the strange thing about Mark is that he knows everything there is to know about quads but the guy trips over his own feet all the time! We usually give him a little "Der He Goes" every time he goes down. And back to the post everyone who races gets +3. Check out JB Racing at Baldwinmotorsports.com before you make your decision. Jody Bateman built my motor and makes extremely nice and strong products. He's super helpful if you have any questions also. You guys should look out for him to be a larger name in the Quad world in the next couple of years. If you race National's you probably already know of him. Good luck on your bike though.
