New Custom Axis A-arms / Swingarm.....

[bmw500hp]

Rumors are floating around this neck of the woods about a new Custom Axis a-arm and swingarm in latter prototype and nearing the production stages..anyone hear anything about it ? ;)

[Guy400]

Yes, it's much less a secret now than it was. I heard about it several months ago but have yet to see any pictures or get any real details.

[Juggalo]

yeah i have known about this for a while too...i've been waitng forever to get some pics/info on em tho!

Bill Ballance runs them on his R.

[Dave400ex]

Yep Ballance is running them on his 250R. I wonder what the price tag will be on those? There was an interview on ATV Scene and he said something about them. He also will be riding a 4 Stroke next year and maybe the rest of this year...

In addition, Axis is said to be using something "different" or "improved" in regards to valving? Different enough to make a high end rider want sell relatively new Axis for the Newer ones. This is suppose more relevant to the rear shock..

why cant we just get reavalves? crap i just bought the top of the line and then they do this :grr thats life i guess.......................:ermm: :mad:

[bmw500hp]

I feel ya dude..even though don't have new axis self...ya know, the art or science of vavle / spring torsion / and all the other aspects of building and setting up shocks is something that is seldom addressed or discussed...it's like, when we talk jets for a carb or lift and duration for a cam..we can relate to what does what..and if we choose to know more, there are many facts to reference...

.....but in the area of a shock we give all the specific inforation to the shock builder and he gives us the "magic bullet" so to speak...like, how does the valving of an elka differ from the valving of a pep or an axis...:confused: oh well, not really expecting the answer, just one of those "soap box moments, sorry". :o
