new swinger/elkas on the way

[jaysea1]

Finally decided on a swingarm. After going back and forth I went with a +4 Janssen swinger in chrome. They had one in stock...so I got the chrome job for free. I also ordered a set of Elkas for the front. Dual rates(stock A-arms)with no rezzies(ride dunes...and by no means a pro racer) The Elkas came highly reccommended by many of you...and I'm a big dude(I need suspension BAD) I can add the rezzies later on them if I need to. The Janssen has a life time warranty on it, and it looks strong as hell. I like the oval tube design. This was also reccommended by a couple HQ'ers...and alot of those YFZ450 guys. I will post a product review once everything is here, and installed.

i bought a janssen steering stem for my cr500 banshee and its sweet. built tough and looks badass. im sure the swinger will be sweet also. as for the elkas i run them and wouldnt trade them for anything. they soak up everything i put in front of them.

You definately can't go wrong with Elkas. Janssen makes some sweet stuff.

Thanks for the feedback gentlemen...RNBRAD, I think you reccommended the Janssen( a good descision)...I was really impressed with your mods...DICE valve caps, very old school, but the banshee spirit lives on; DUCT TAPE reinforced frame, well you just never know, a good idea for me;BAILING WIRE on the grips, for that arm wrenching TWO STROKE powerband...YEAH And last but not least, I really like the FEAR THIS sticker...It'll compliment my BAD BOY stickers on the rear fenders!!! Now I'll really fit the mold...you gotta appreciate the humor in all of us, thanks for the laugh PS, I think you can get two toned duct tape on Ebay...for that custom look.

Finally glad someone can appreciate the blood, sweat and tears I've put into these modicications. Let alone the tremendous amount of expense involved. I also appreciate the input on the latest breakthrough/offerings in duct tape technology. This is sure to appease they eye as well as improve the frames resistance to bending/breaking. PS: Thanks for noticing and look for updates as I will be getting the bailing wire triple show chrome plated. This should look way trick!!!

 

You guys are too fun.
