normally you dont absolutely have to replace the stock brake lines. but its a nice upgrade. i still have a rear stock brake line with a plus six swingarm.lol

okay good. i'm also going to get burgard +2. my 450 is red/ black, an i cant decide weather to get black, or red a-arms. have you had any problems with them so far?

i have had no problems with mine!! they are people who say they are crap but as long as you dont do any MX they will work great! i gave 350$ for mine from Burgard and that has been the best money i have spent on my bike! it handles so much better! yes they are better built a arms out there but if you dont have much money Burgard is a good choice IMO!

i'm going to get standard travel just because of price reasons. i do mx 3 times a month but nothing crazy. all the other times i ride my track, and i never bottom out. how did you adjust your shocks to make up for the 2 inches of more leverage on them?

to be honest with ya i didnt even adjust my shocks! i was going to but after i rode it with the new a arms it felt fine for my kind of riding. in your case i would up the preload and compression but i would get another opinion because im not to good with shock adjustments!

i used black zip ties! one on each arm. i plan on getting some billet brake line clamps. the zip ties works good but looks kinda of crappy if you start lookin real close at the a arms. but if you dont have much money you do what you have to!
