so was i. no need to get personal. i was posting from my phone so posts are short and sweet, my phone hates me.
the arms had been on the bike a year and were 3 years old total i think. it happened right as i was lining back up to wax some 4pokes. it rattled my cage a bit.
its not to me, it happened out at the dunes last spring on my bike. those arms got sold that next week and replaced with lsr a arms. phelps was there, he helped me replace it. i still have it as a reminder. ill take a pic.
for trails start with the stock swing arm and have the rear shock rebuilt and setup for you.
for the front stuff just be patient, i got a nice set of chrome LSR arms for $200. way better then full flights with heims. the shocks i got for $250 i think but they ended up needing rebuilt so i have about 450 into them. it is so much more forgiving in when you come down hard on the front end. it just soaks it up and keeps the bike planted.
what color are they? i have some silver vein ones that are about +2 i think. they were supposed to be +3 but arent long enough. they are shorter than my lonestar +2 tie rods and theres too make threads showing for comfort
maybe we can work something out. how long do yours measure?
i bring that home sitting on my ass in a truck telling myself what to do.
Edit- the ASE test is a joke. i passed it when i was in highschool working at autozone.

I've also noticed the last couple times people sent me money; that it was "under review" for a few days. Fuck off PayPal. They been sucking off Obama too?
