yeah i think banshees are a very good machine also but i do get tired of some the banshee riders looking at me like they wonder what i am doing lining up with them to drag race but i at least sometimes get my revenge when i beat them to the top.last weekend i actually had a banshee rider motion me over to race him and i must say in that situation it felt really good to beat him not only once but three times up comp.

Sandman:

I don't have an extended swing-arm (yet.)

I am probably going to pick up a +2" swing-arm from a buddy that just went to +4 since he went to a 760.

I see the day when I will have a 760 in mine but, don't think I will go over 2". I know this will hurt on the drags but, I like to dune and trail ride in the dunes so, I don't want to give up the trailability I have now.

I think it all depends on where you ride and what kind of riding you do. I know you do a lot of dragging and I would think a good +4" would be good for you.

oh the racing is only a small amount of what we do trails and jumping and just duning takes the rest , and wheelies that is why i was wondering on the arm. i will also probably go to the 760 the crank stoke is in the works right now so i probably wait until winter or next spring. let me know on the +2 that might be more in line with what i want.

hey sandman if you were asking me what days i will be at florence it looks like i will be coming over on friday and probably saturday.i will probably not have the raptor with me due to a broken swingarm but i will have the baja.i am trying to get the swingarm fixed before this weekend but it doesnt look like it is going to happen.
