No, i havent bent the stocker and Ive only heard of a few guys bending them. I'm keeping a close eye on my swingarm but havent had any problems so far

 

If you MX, Ti is not the way to go. As for springs, Ti be it. Axles, Team-ind.com/aftermarket.

 

Team Industries has been making OEM axles for many, many years. The Honda corporation vote them #1 status, for just their stock units. If you know snowmobiles, then you're familiar with the quality and performance of their clutches. Dec 2003 ATV Sport, you can check the pic of the "bin of death". A full telemetry system, and metallurgical lab allowed them to wreck the rest, to give us the best. Coupled with forged/finger re-inforced hubs, their axle is the strongest tested unit on the market. And no, I don't sell them, or get kick-backs from people who do. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
