So they solid welded the front bumper to the frame at the bottom? Or am I looking at it wrong. If they did that was about retarded. Everything else looks common to me. Stock skids are junk, and stock heal guards aren't much better. The stock bumpers are also very weak, but if they welded the bottom mounts to the frame that was a very dumb move.

Those trees or whatever you hit come out of no where.

No the front fender is bolted on but it looks like he broke the mounting tab off.

I have to say the belly skid and swingarm skid is junk. I modified a yfz belly skid to fit and am getting the GT Thunder sprocket and rotor guards.

I hope you didn't get hurt that looks like a wild first ride...What happened?

Looks like the bumper did it's job though...took the hit and minimized transfer to the frame which would be mucho dinero to repair/replace...

Aye, I bet that would be a bit more expensive than the other frames to replace.

He definatly didn't baby it. I'm glad to see all the other parts held up well.

Looks like the heel guard was just a bolt backing out?

I'm glad to see that even though the rear skid got thrashed the swinger itself held up well to the beating.

No it is not welded to the frame.

Look at how the a-arms bolt to the frame. thats different

Hey...I'll be getting mine soon( the green one) I cannot wait. The a-arms are attached kind of weird. In fact the team I am on took the 1st of 5 bikes they got to Rocky Mountain to have Aarms modified because there is a pin or something so you cant just buy aftermarket a-arms right now (i believe) but should have nerfs and everything I need for next race. Was hoping to have it for my race this weekend, but no dice.

I'll post pictures of the finished product or as it starts getting finished! The seat is pretty stiff I sat on it when we got them at the dealership and wouldn't want to be sitting on that through rough stuff.

Anyway..I have to make the drive to Idaho now. YEA!!! WORCS Rd 4.
