Several days ago I found six cracks in my swing arm...... bummed me out big time. Therefore, I have started my winter project early and here's what my quad looks like now, now totally broken down but getting there.

K2 - I definately think that bumper and nerfs need to go, your bikes too nice to have that dg stuff on it.

k2-dawg

11-02-2003, 01:35 PM

Thanks, and I agree wit u, Remlapr. They're gone, gonna buy new bumper and nerfs. PRM bumper not sure of nerfs yet. Any ideas?

If you don't care about $$, I think the either the x-factor or graydon pro-pegs look good - but they are about $270. I've got a set off Magnums, they have huge stell pegs that are actually part of the nerf - they actually look pretty plain though, but they are only around $140. Then there are the new AC's with the built in heel guards - I haven't seen them in person yet though, and I've always heard that the pegs sit higher with the AC's and of course the aluminum pegs will wear out eventually.
