if youre not really pounding on the shocks hard you could go with the 450 shocks, but you need to have a +2 or +3 arm to make them work right. ive had my elkas for a long time now, but i beat on my bike pretty hard.

pistons alone are not going to give you a hp increase. yes, wiseco are much better than stock pistons. unless youre ready to rebuild, there is no reason to put in new pistons.

all the itp and maxxis tires are overweight, overpriced and overrated.. there are far better choices out there that weigh less, hold up well and cost a lot less. you just dont hear about them as much because they dont flood all the atv magazines with false claims about how great they are. here are some tires that will outperform all of those high priced junk tires at a much better cost.. ohtsu mr501 and if you wanna go really cheap.. factory yfz450 tires

well shit, at least you can work on your post count?

me and my brother were among the first 3 or 4 people on HQ to have rocket pipes. we got our sets at the same time, sometime back in 2003 or 2004 i think. at that time, they were pretty new. since then the silencer design has changed for sure. its a lot cleaner looking now. i actually upgraded to the newer silencers at one point in time. i bought them originally for a 4mm passion motor. of course, i ditched that junk not long after i got it for a good running 4mm stock cylinder motor. they made more power on that motor than cpi, despite what the builder said. after that i got a 4mm cub motor. power delivery was great. i won tons of hillclimbs with that setup. next up was the 10mm motor. they did run well on the 10mm cub, but a little restrictive. thats when i upgraded to a big bore shearer. i would say the 421 cub is about the cut off as far as gaining performance goes on the bigger motors. anything 421 and smaller, the rockets will be a great addition to. again, you can run them on the bigger motors, but you will sacrifice a little top end. all that said, $600 for a set of these pipes is not out of line. i feel they are superior to the cpi. one reason people talk down on them is because they dont know shit about them. theyve heard the horror stories of the company being passed from person to person. in fact, the rockets are an almost exact replica of the GRR out frame drag pipes. i bought a set of GRR outframes a few years back to look at the similarities. they are in fact the same pipe. i dont know the whole story, but what i can gather from all of the different rocket builders is that the rocket pipe design was stolen and put into production. take it or leave it because at this point in time, who the fuck knows. all i do know for a FACT is that these are great pipes for almost any motor setup. between me and my brother, we have run them on the following motors with great results. 4mm stock cylinder drag setup 4mm woods port from FAST 4mm cub motors 10mm cub motor

it appears as if its on consignment at cascade. sweet bike.

there are plenty of builders that sponsor bansheehq that ship parts all over the world.

where are you located? there might be someone close to you that can help you out.

thats brilliant..

sti dirt trax... they make them in a 22x11x9 that actually measures about 21". they are a really wide tire. rocky mountain sells them.

i absolutely would not run a billet case saver at all. run a plastic one.

i grew up riding dirtbikes starting when i was 3 years old. i really think it helped me to become a better rider by learning balance on a dirtbike first. i say go for it.

thats badass. throw up some more pics..

awesome bike man! welcome to HQ where in florida do you live?

i had one and didnt like it. give me my regular old cable with an ez pull lever any day of the week.

yea, we need to know what kind of riding you do before we can recommend anything. for $3,000 though, you can have a badass motor and do it right the first time.

yea i know.. the paypal email address doesnt match anything on HQ, so bascially, i have no idea who it is...

ttt. just tryin to find out who and where to send stickers to.

haha kidding. anyone know JIM RAMEY's screen name? i tried using the email look up for him in my admin panel but it didnt return anything.. if you know Jim's screen name or you are the real Jim Ramey, please stand up...
