Pipes-PT mids are good ive heard. I know fatties are good for trails Even T5s are good if the trails are not so tight...theres alot of good pipes

Carb- Stock is probably good if your engine is stock

A arm- Quicksand Racing top shelf quality at a low price

Swinger- -1" at least, traction and handling difference is extrordinary. I reccomend Quicksand

Plasics- Im a big fan of Maier. Relatively inexpensive. Fullbore is a waste of money and looks cheesy in my opinion *gasp did he just say that!!!*

Air Filter- UNI filter on a Pro Design flange

Shocks- Elkas. The non adjustable fronts and OEM rebuild for the rear is a fairly inexpensive way to get a very good set of shocks

Axle- LSR Axcalibur, good warranty

 

Id reccomend to either get the head milled or get a aftermarket head, compression helps alot. Also lighten the flywheel, and get a set of V-Force reeds.

i pretty much agree except for the shocks. i would go with elkas or axis. carbs depending on what you wanna do and what porting you have. if you have more of a bottom end port then get some top end carbs like some 33s or 35s. if you need some more low end then go with a smaller carb like the 28s or 30s.

for the money and the tipe of riding i do the works are fine, if i had the cash i would buy the higher end. maintaining low end is why i went with a smaller carb and they are 100 times better than stock.
