Would the Dura Blue +2 axle help improve the handling? I do not want to widen the front because I ride alot of woods.

 

works for me. Big improvement.

 

Same here it work great for me and you might want to invest Work Performance for the front shocks. It will improve your riding and you will able to go faster and less tiring on your arm.

Work Performance is good for the peoples who are on budget and don't want to pay for high price of other shock brands.

 

Thanks for the replies. I will be purchasing the +2 axle. Why did Yamaha go with a narrower rear than the front any ways? I am new to the sport and appreciate the advice.
