wow how is it possible to bend it that bad? I saw a guy bend his 400ex shock and snap his a-arm on both sides clear off and then get airlifted and he has no idea what happen but a big tree in the Florida GNCC is what happened lol But this... its more than a 90 degree bend! How is that possible?

my mechanic runs a walsh/pep setup on his racebike and did that exactly to one of his shocks.

he simply cased a jump.... nothing horrible. he rode it off the track and was like wtf.:confused:


he then grabbed another set out of the trailer:p



one day i want to have a complete extra setup just laying around lol.

Not to steal the thread or anything but I bent this YFZ shock up pretty good...actually hit the shock directly on my buddies subframe and exhaust when i came off the top of a dune in Kermit, TX.
