i know this isn't a 400, but i figured everyone would like to see this. i really messed my little 250ex up. i have really bad luck with trees as you can see. so now my money has to go into this thing. so now i'm set back about a month or so on a-arms for my 400 :ermm:

i did that 2 times to my 400 on the same a arm when i first got it. thankfully that you can get a stock a arm for under 100. easy fix

i'm gonna make sure what i buy has a lifetime warranty on them. i'm an aggresive rider and i'm kinda rough on my quads from time to time, but i try my best to take care of them at the same time. i sure do hope this doesn't happen again

Why fix it? Buy arms for the 400 first. Then fix the little kids bike.

any product that has a lifetime warranty against bending or breaking will replace them at no charge. ASR has a lifetime warranty on their a-arms. that's more than likely what i'll get for it.

Not many have an "unconditional" warranty against bending or breaking but seeing that ASR does that's pretty cool. They look like a nice product too at a fair price.

they do look like a nice product. considering i get a-arms, brakelines, tierods and tierod ends for 500 bucks i think its a good deal

nah man, when i bent my hydrodynamics A arm they wouldnt cover it due to rider error. and it states on its website all Arms have a lifetime warranty.
they will replace my bushing and balljoints for free though.
i dunno though, maybe ASR is different.

it actually states on their advertisement that they have a lifetime warranty against bending or breaking. if i pay 500 bucks for something and it breaks, they better stand by the warranty. ;)

it probably goes along with the scratch and dent deal. you don't pay full price so you don't get the full warranty coverage. :p

idk if it'll work but maybe the stick a-arms on the 400 will fit on the 250 and then you just get new ones on the 400??

they won't work, i've measured before. I'm just gonna have my dad fix the tabs on the frame and gusset it. then i'll buy the a-arms and shocks
