Lets see them! Front and rear.
This is a chance to show off your shocks, a-arms, axles, swingers, etc.
Im trying to find a combonation I like for my 02 440, so throw in any feedback you have on how your settup handles (under/oversteer, etc).

YFZ shocks
+2 arms
2+3 T9 baja's
Denton stick steering stabilizer

shocks aren't revalved, so it is on the soft side with the wide arms... but not quite too soft. i have the compression turned almost all the way up and they are great.
the 2+3 wheels were on the bike when i bought it, and i do get some feedback in the steering due to them, but the stabilizer helps alot.
with all that being said, it is -worlds- better than stock was.

450r shocks
ASR +2+1
my rear end is stock except for the off set wheels that came with the bike which is why i did not get an axle.
I haven't had a chance to ride the set up yet due to having to wait for break lines.

My old Gibson/ AXIS front end. Seemed to work pretty good compared to most others.

ok this might sound stupid but why are so many people without swingarm skid plates? are they not necessary for where you guys are riding? the way i see it, why not have one? it doesent hurt performance or hurt anything.

if you race mx there isnt anything that can hurt your swinger.
if your good at picking lines you can get by without one as well.

Actually.. you lose ground clearance. I don't need one. I dont ride trails that you putt putt through.

Like I said. If a trail has rocks and junk all in it. I don't ride it. If I ride trails they are FAST.

so bascially you take the little girl way out of it and tip toe through the forrest? why cant you be fast over the rocks and junk gotta think quick thats what gives an adrenalin rush. i'm just messin haha but why restrict yourself to places? I want my quad to do everything I throw at it besides some hard core mud bogging. I would be pissed if I had to take a look at a trail and say I cant go that way, riding areas are hard enough to come by already so I like to use all the land if I can. Some nice quads posted up BTW

Im talking big *** boulders. I have tons of riding spots man, so I know which ones are fun and which ones aren't. If I got to a new place to ride, I through a skid on. My quad is setup for MX dude.
No tip toe'n whatsoever
