If I had the money I want a Yoshi or White Bros. But for now I'm getting a Big Gun until I do.

well i found a really nice slip on white bros for my honda for 300 but idk how well slip ons really enhance your performance. what kind of quad you got cuz i found out that unless you have a sizuki the yoshi really isn't that good it was pretty much made for the sizuki

the hrc kit is a good set of upgrades if you can afford them. tires and proper suspestion setup will make a big differenece also.

i think motowoz shocks are the best if $ does not madder. i think the best suspestion for the $ i think is eather some tcs triple rates or getting a ishock setup.

The above post is correct. the first money spent needs to be in the suspension. You can have all the power you want but with out a good suspension setup it won't do alot of good. Motowoz shocks are excellent, we run Elkas with the remote reseviors and they work just fine. Also you want the stance of the quad as wide as you can and still pass tech. Im my area you have to be able to fit through a 50 inch template. Once you get that done with tires then you can start working on the motor, remember the more you do to the motor in my opinion you lose a little reliability.
