the next mod I make will be suspension also. I like to jump, and as you probably figured out these bikes bottom out easy. I got my mind set on a pair of works steelers for the front. tuned to my weight and riding style theyll run me $300. as far as a-arms I was looking into getting some krypon super arms, they were the least expensive, and very comparible to the more top of the line a arms. but now Im just going to go with the shocks. works claims you can get up to 2 1/2" more travel with theyre shocks. that should do me good. I dont ever really feel tippy, or really think I need wider a arms for the riding I do. good luck

+2 arms just give a wider stance..as far as i know

If i keep my 300EX..i'm going to get 400EX a-arms. Works special shocks for this application, in dual rate. No res.

Then a 350x swingarm. I think you have to change it to fit. And a Works Ultra Cross rear.

I got Works dual rates w/o res for $335 from graydonproline.com This included shipping and COD charge. Took about 4 weeks but well worth it. I was a little unsure how much difference suspension would make, was I wrong. Got more travel in the front and they really soak up small and large bumps. I have a 91 250x, I recommend Works, they are awesome!!!!!!!!1
