Well, I wasn't going to type everything and wait until I could upload some pics, but over the last month or so, jumping has gotten better and better with this machine. Started out small, with jumps about 5 ft high, 20 ft across. Then proceeded to go bigger and bigger, with the largest being 20 ft high, 50 ft across over a water inlet. No damage has occured on any of these jumps (knock on wood) and just wantin' to go bigger. I will get the pics on soon. Bike is all stock, so it is safe to say the frames can handle the jumps.

gets some pics , and I would recommend an Arens frame brace , not as good as gusseting but will do the job well . The frames start cracking after the paint chips from stress around the shock mount once its starts rusting it will give really quick. At least that is what I have been hearing.

Even with a quad noted for having a good frame (which ours unfortunatly don't) you'll still eventually crack something on it by doing big jumps. Of course that still doens't stop us from doing them, I just hate it when someone blames the company for cracking a weld after they case a big jump or overshoot and bottom them out. Even if you land every jump perfect you'll still eventually mess somethin up. Keep up the good air, that's why I bought a sport quad to begin with, peace.
