wider a arms and axle. Lower the hell out of it with a lowering kit or specifically designed lowering shocks and linkage. throw on some hoosiers and go romp on it and see how you like it. I raced flat track for a couple seasons about 7-8 years ago. It was blast. You will need some engine mods to get it up to power if you want to be competitive though. Most of the quads out there will be hopped up 450's.

most any suspension company should be able to help you out if you just give them a call. Just tell them what bike you have and what you are looking to do and they should be able to tell you what setup to run suspension wise. Or you can just run a lowering kit. I used to just use the lowering kit because I rode mx and flattrack and I could switch it back to standard height within 20 min.
