another question :D

alright i was wondering. for a MX track. not sure what its likebut from what my friend says its a sharpish turn and a jump soon afterward.

he also says my friend with a bored out 511r stock width adn suspension cant make the jump and that getting a pipe would help me make it. i havent been there yet but im saying to him. wouldnt being wider be better? you can corner alot faster and my guess is make the jump easier. instead of cornering slower and trying to pick up the speed really fast.

the power it has stock already out-performs the stock suspension anyways so i would tell you to get long travel suspension but if you dont have the loot wait and do it the right way. just my 2 cents

thing is im only 14. dont really have the dough to pay for full long travel suspension and imsroll a arms. the hits arent big enough to need long travel and i cant race or do anything major until im 16. i was just looking into getting +2 a arms and a G force axle(+4) and making it wider. ive always wanted to make it wider because we really dont have tight trails.

im looking into getting housers or JD performance. :D

Not sure if you are interested but i know that ATV Four Play sells both a bad #*@ +2 +1/2 Long Travel MGC but they also sell what they call their Ultra Tech series. It is in the 600 dollar range and uses stock shock dimensions, you could get GT Thunder rebuilds on your shocks for half the cost of full aftermarket shocks. The only reason i am recommending this is because i have rode one with both of these set ups and They both worked awsome.
