[robby26wi]

Yes long travel and i went through both...Baldwin had em in stock tho...They where 695 but Jody realized it took more money and time so i think they are 750 now...still like 200 less then most and they are bad ***...

I'm going with the Hermmann racing LT arms too. They are great people and have great service and awsome products at a low cost. www.herrmannracing.com If you do go with them tell them Matt McGonigal sent you. I'm sending my 250r LT front shocks to elka to get converted to the 450 front end soon. I just got my quad in and I'm picking it up in 3 days so i cant wait. Oh, and z-135, did you get the elka rear too? If you didnt does the bike sit high in the rear? Just wondering

EDIT: We Brought our 450r to Brad Saturday at i would say 4:00-4:30

and stayed till 5:30

and got to our house at 11:10

He had 2 yfz's and a snowmobile and a Herrmann Racing 250r in his warehouse, and now he has our 450r:D :devil:

I talked with them Tuesday of last week(Feb. 3) and Brad said they didnt have one yet, but I live pretty close to them and mine came in thursday. Anyway, they said they would have the front end made a couple weeks after they get the bike, and the swingarm and all that good stuff about a week or so after that. I'm not getting my arms untill about may or june because I'm running low on the green stuff. I'm sending my shocks out to be converted as soon as I get my springs back though.

I know.

We drove 6 hours to Herrmann Racing in Pa, and 6 hours back.

We dropped our 450r off, and he was making his parts from that.

He had 2 yfz's in his warehouse, and a Herrmann 250r.
