I would definetly do the front wheels black. The polished throws the whole thing off...JMO

thats what i was thinking, i have a set in my race trailer that i painted flat black, just like the rear beadlocks....i just love flat black, and its so much easier to maintain, visually....thanks for the compliments!

yea...ive been stuck with a cast on my left arm for THREE MONTHS, i go back oct. 30th, and i think im going to have to get surgery...and wear a cast for three more months!

so ive been considering building a modified.....and following the "family tradition"

bartman, thats my uncle haha


front end seems low most likely because the back sits high without a rider on the bike. one small thing i dont like about the ohlins shock on the rear, but once the rider is on the bike its PERFECT! Ride height on the bike is set properly......well, at least where i like it.

and i went with standard travel a-arms because im 17, and my mowing business can only support so much for a racing career....

is long travel a HUGE difference? would i notice much as far as when im riding?

i had standard travel on my old 450r and i thought it was fine, the only time i noticed a big difference in ST over LT was when i rode long travel fox shocks

nice bike btw

ive never thought i really NEEDED LT....so i went the cheaper route, and ive been satisfied.


all i seem to hear is that it is NOT a big difference, althought im sure it has its advantages
