Ya, Thanks for the pics, Looks great, what type of front tires do you run. They look like they would do me great for the type of riding that I do? What kind of $$ for the set of 4? Also did you change your steering stem or just the bars? What did you put on for bars and/or stem?

I injured my left knee 06-15-02 A.C.L., Doc, doesn’t think I’m going to need surgery. But its still killing me when I try to do anything more than walk. I just put Black trail-tech (1 1/8”) handlebars on my DS. I have been playing with the toe, trying to find the sweet spot, to get rid of the twitchiness. The rest of the bike is stock. I totaled my Raptor in 7 weeks, the wife was pissed. I was going up a hill at Carnegie when it flipped on me and then it tumbled down the hill. We picked up the pieces and I put a lot of ice on my ego. I have a lot of learning to do on this quad. Being old, fat and having bad knees I’m learning my limitations. I’m gonna go ride in a few weeks, I have to let my knee heal some more first.

The tires are Bandit XC's 22x10x10 rear and 22x7x10 front. Chaparral has them for $48.99 for front and $69.99 for rear. The bars are renthal atv bars with an Alba bar riser.

Sure thing, It will be 2 weeks or so but I will try to hook up. Have you done any work on you’re a-arms to get rid of the twitchiness? I feel it on my bike going down hill. The flat track and going up hill its fine. Which do you like better the trails or the track?

Played with the toe a little. Seems to be o.k. didn't really notice any twitchyness but then again this is my first quad. I love trails and tracks. Don't really care for the sand. Bayareabomb,
You interested in going with me and BlueRap on a ride?
