I got the same A-Artms as him 8)
So I made a good choice
Kid, having the same products as a pro rider means nothing if you dont have the skill he does.
actually you dont have the same as his. he has the t-pin i think its called. they cost twice as much. ;)

Well he has to have something different than everyone else..And what's the T-Pin.
I see he has diffrent Hubs.
The stock Hubs on the '06 YFZ's suck. They are casted aluminum and they can snap easy.
Have you snapped yours yet? Didnt think so.. You my friend are deinfatly a Bench racer.

Dude I didn't say I snapped them. A freind of mine owns a machine shop and noticed the hubs and told me that they are the best quality metal to use. But the only way of possibly snapping them is to crash or have a pro rider race it. ;)
Bench racer... Someone who builds their race bike according to someone ELSES specs. You buy a trinity pipe and they claim 12hp gain from it.. When you talk to you friends, all of the sudden you have a 55hp YFZ without even seeing it on the dyno, but while you were online, someone ELSE said they gained 12hp, so that means you must have too right? Wrong.
Or, you buy this, this and this... And you realize that someone ELSE has this part and had alot of success, I.E. Kory Ellis. You think if he has it, when you buy it, it will make you perform just as well as him..
Somthing along those lines. It may be called bench racer, it may be called somthing else. But if you have any common sence, you will get to what I am saying and realize that this kid buys stuff to be like the pros because if they have it... It must be good.
Very Well Said
www.2006.yfz.justgotowned.com <<seriously click it ;)
no actually you can buy those same a arm. in order to run the t-pin front end you must use their hubs. and your freind that ows a washine shop is an ediot. he probabbly thinks steel is strong so lets make everything on the bike steel so nothing ever brakes. and cast is pretty strong. and light. i have seen cast hubs break but with people using 3+2 rims. billet is really the way to go if you can offord it. but if they made everything billet lots of people wouldnt be able to afford it.
Yea that's true :-\
The picture shows what is different on a T-pin compared to stock hubs. It give you more travel and more comfert. I will post the difference in a second.

titanium ;)
This is a ball joint arm.
The one posted above is a ball BEARING. They look almost like a T but with rounded heads and give you just a little bit more clearence and moving room to help from snaping hubs off.

Yea there's a big diffrence.
But what's the travel diffrence. 1 in. - 1.5 In. ???
The Mono Balls on top and bottom allow for bind free wheel travel up to 16".

Well, considering the pros have probably ridin most quads, and have tried many strategies and tried tons of parts, and the fact that if they buy a certain part, it may be good, and usually is, but it may just be their preference, and may be worse for you. Buy parts not because the pros have them, but because it fits your riding lifestyle, even though the parts are good, and may work perfectly for you, there is always something that fits you better, like a shoe size.
Yea that's right :-\
But Pro's dont pay for their parts.. They get supplied with em' ;)

that is the fron end my friend got and maybe the same front end i will get !!!!!
but on what you say :-[ :o 8)
so thats a bench rider,
well, doug gust has eyes, and so do i , so does that mean i can ride like him?
No. He rides a 450, you ride a 400. He doesnt have a carb, you do. Therefore, he is superiour over you.
the pros ride what pays them the most money incase you havent noticed most of them changed there suspension this year for more money.

well technically, i dont have a carb either, its sitting on the tool box seeing as it does no good on the 400, and i've sat on the 450 before, so thats close enough!

so your "freind" got those A-Arms??? for $2500
YES AND I MIGHT TOO
Shoot, I ride whatever I can freeking afford. :|
Quote from: woodyraptor on March 15, 2006, 08:43:59 AM
YES AND I MIGHT TOO
Go for it :ThumbsUp.gif
So it's $1,700 more than just the regular LT's :-\ I'll just stick with the normal LT's ;)
Ya if I was you i'd stick with the regular Laegars too, in fact, I wouldn't even put suspension on my bike if I was you. It's just a waste of money if you don't even jump.... >:D

You got that right! I was never really in to the whole jumpy-get-air-y thing, with wide a-arms, its harder to get through the woods.
When I think of pro quad I think that "The rider does'nt own the bike the sponsers do" :D
