I was wondering if I would notice the diffrence with a leager narrow frame over my stock frame. I just ride trales and a few trips to the dunes each year. Is it worth the 2400 , I dont really care about bragging rights just ride quallity. and what would be the best rear shock set up for trail rideing in the dunes, stock, which I have now or cr 500, or no link, or anyother set up that I am not aware about. Thanks Justin.

i dont know but i do have some thing to say, lol.

why would you spend $2400 on a frame to hit the woods and the dunes here and there. why not find you a good set of used shocks and get them valved for you and your style, a good stearing dampner and save the rest for future motor mods/ bling.

I have a nice set of works tripple rates on it now, no dampner, dos that help, I notice in the dunes my quad wants to kinda snake back and forth, also my front end is set up pretty stiff is this good for the dunes.

And thats what I am trying to find out, is it worth buying one for what I do. I do like to jump dunes, and I like to go big If I find the right dune.

what is your toe in set at? if your catching ruts and getting pulled around its something your going to deal with.


i race a 450r and i wouldnt even think of getting a $2400 frame to break/ bend or want not to replace it

not sure exactly on the toe, maybe 5 degree, I have burgard +2 +1 arms and the the top is in all the way and bottom is the same all the way tight aginst the lower arm. when I pick the front of my bike up the shocks do not rise, the wheels just come off the ground, should I loosen the springs?

toe in is tires pointing in, front to rear. you want about 1/8" in on the front each side. thats how i like mine.

Sorry I was thinking camber. I have them toed out just a bit. toe in is better for straight line stabability right? toe out better for cornering, is that right.

toe in toe in toe in, never out. yes it will help with the streight line ride.

6' level on the rear tire. measure the front on the back and make sure the front is 1/8" farther in on the front side. use a ratchet strap on the bars to hold them streight.
