I want to say Jeffro is our Ice Racing expert???

Get a set of Zero Pre-Load Elka's. . . lowers the bike at least a couple inches.

Jeffnrivercity bought a set from someone and put them on his 830. You could contact him and make him an offer? I don't know if he is interested in selling parts off the bike but, that would be a good fit.

I think he really just wants to sell the bike - he hasn't ridden it in a while. Seems like he has too many other things going on to actually get with it and list it for sale though.

Anyways, that's the set-up I'ld look at.

Put a big bumper on the beast. . . if you can't pass them with power, you can move them out of your way with fear of being run over!

Cheapest option...400ex shocks....and yes they suck but u can set em to full so they are stiff while your a arms are still strait out...dont need good suspension for ice racing anyways.
