This winter im going to build a MX quad and also a TT quad the TT quad i want to run a couple TT nationals next but dont want to spend a real lot of $ unlike MX cause we have no flat trackin in my area anymore.

Rath sway bar a must, dont buy the durablue,roberts racing a arms and swing arm or Houser, lowering kit or pep shocks or have GT Thunder rebuild them for cost.

What kind of bike are you building?

The Rath swaybar works great

A arm length will depend on the bike. The swingarm length will depend on your weight.
I've always ran PEP's for TT, but any shock that is built specifically for your setup will be fine. Don't waste money on "lowering kits". Spend the money on getting the shocks set up and you won't need that crap.

Call Jeff Roberts and he will build you everything you need.

Or you could save yourself a lot of headaches and just buy my TT bike! Kawi 450, all Roberts suspension, PEP's, built motor, etc, etc. It rocks!

Matt your a dork. And what is wrong with a durablue sway-bar? Not starting a bashing just interested.

I have one, that was used once that I could sell this kid cheap. Not to mention I know the fool.

You are very welcome. If you really want to do a TT Honda let me know I'll see if I can get you hooked up with some of the guys that used to run Onsted all the time.

As slow as you are isn't much of a chase. And I think the quads are still there just not allowing bikes. It's a freakin township thing not the track folks. I could be wrong though.

Oh BTW I know where you can pick up a 05 Honda built for MX for about 5k. It also comes with a pink frame so it would look just right under your candy ***.
