    rear rock guard

    My son hit a small rock and bent the guard that has the tensioner on it so it was sitting all cross ways. I bent it back real easy with a 3x3 so I know it isn't sturdy at all. What else is out there since we trail ride a bit and will be going to St. Joes so I am SURE this will be an issue again shortly.

    Thanks

    I'm with you on this one. It would be nice to have a sturdy piece instead of what's on it. I'm always telling the kids, avoid the big rocks.

    It's kinda like putting a lift kit and big tires on a truck and telling people...don't take it off road...sheesh. I can't believe I am the only one having this issue with ALL the racers out there. I would figure most would have them all mangled considering my son is fairly tame.

    most racers don't encounter large rocks on the tracks.. LOL!

    did you order that guard from MaximumRPM?

    Will do...I am a little nervous though.
