Hi!
Thanks for your reply. You said go with +1" swing arms if you're under 230 pounds but I'm 227 do you think I should go with the +1"still or go with the +2" swing arm.You saidthat the 2" a-arms wouldn't be needed but the trails I ride on are big enough for a ds650 and also have lots of turns,I would like my raptor to be as stable as possible, with that being said how do you and every other raptor owner think that my raptor will handle with +2'' a-arms(note: the +2" a-arms I'm talking about are not moved an inch forward), either a + 1 or +2" swing arm, + 4" axle, and 6-ply razors. Do also think with these mods that it will make my raptor real stable?

Thanks your info will be greatly appreciated.
Dan

Gary660r,
Although I don't ride exclusively with 4x4s I'm feelin you on this one. Those lugging around in first and second days straight up SUCK!

"Gear Spacing - When you first ride the Raptor, it will seem that first and second gear spacing is a tad wide. After riding the machine a while and working with the available torque, you won't even notice the gear spacing. One note...if you ride exclusively with very slow riders (4x4 utility type guys), you will hate the Raptor and wanna gear it down (you probably don't though since you have the 400ex still...it does'nt like chugging at a couple of mhp's all day either)"
