I am looking to buy a set for my quad.. I want to know what brand would be best for someone with a size 14 shoe? I have a set of AC on my 400ex and I would like the Graydons for my Raptor. Do they have Chrome ones from Graydon and how much do they run for? Thanx

Take a look at my web site for pics. I have Graydons on two of our Raptors because over time they have proven to us to be strong and great looking. We polish the alum. nerfs by hand to almost chrome finish and they look great. The good part of getting T-6 alum. is that the scratches you will get from use are removable by some simple sanding with fine wet or dry paper and repolishing. I ordered straight from Graydon and the price was around $179.00 plus shipping. They cost more than most others but you get what you pay for. Take a look at the post in this forum and you see that the majority of posters that have nerfs have Graydons. I have used them for about 6 years on other atv's and will use no other make at this time. Friends have used other brands and one 400ex had one side break at the mount and peg that would not have happened with Graydon. That breakage just about put him in the hospital. You need the confidence that the time when you do slam you weight into the webbing when coming off jumps or whoops that it and the nerf frame is going to do it's job.

You don't need nerfs. You need a fully enclosed roll bar on that Raptor. lol. I shut my aol off at home so I'm doing this from work. You going riding this comming Saturday? I got a full DMC for the 440. We gotta check it out.

Syko

AOL was way to slow, but I'm getting Southwestern Bell this week some time.

The DMC is sweet. It sounds alot like the R-4. I have not had the chance to ride yet, but this Saturday will be the day. Wanna go?
