Save up for PEP shocks and LSR a-arms and swingarm.

^^^^
Agreed

FYI..Predators come stock with very attractive race componets.

Roll design makes a nice a-arm for your application..what is it you want to race MX or XC?

Shocks. '05 and up stock front shocks can be converted, and are fully adjustable. All Z rear shocks can be converted. Converting the shocks is the best bang for your buck, and it's a guarantee that the shocks are set up for your weight and riding style, just like ordering a set of aftermarket shocks. A few companies come to mind for this service: GT Thunder (Laz really, really knows his stuff), and TCS does it as well.

Having shocks set up for your weight and riding style is the most important aspect of a great suspension - even if you're still on the stock a-arms and swinger.

As far as a-arms go, I would have to recommend American Star Racing - they have a true lifetime warranty on repair or replacement, and it won't matter how you tear your parts up.

If you're just starting out don't worry about it yet, the only thing you will need for a while is practice and experience.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
