Hey all thanks for the info. This is what I hoped for when I made the post hoping a couple people would state their riding style and how they made out or didn't make out with the switch. Thank you all!

Just thought I'd my two cents worth:

Very aggressive woods/trail rider, no jumps except when there are two or three foot whoops in the trail or whatever I happen to come across at 40-50 mph and can't slow down in time. I flipped the linkage, and feel that the cornering improvement was worth whatever the other affects were for my type of riding. I havenever bottomed the frame that I know of.

Good luck,
Lorrin Lee

might i ask why u said that u had wish u had got the +2's instead of the +3's??
thanks

 

Too wide. With stock tires everything is OK. When i ride with my MX (8" ITP Holeshots) and douglas rims and tires are to Far out. The ball joints sit just inside the stock rim with the lonestars a-arms. with my MX rims the ball joint sticks out 2".it's completely rideable...i just have to be careful in the turns. Outside tire occasionaly gets hooked up in the soft dirt up top.

Had i known the after market rims would gain 2"...i would have went with +2.
