It's like going from a pogo stick to riding on top of a great big sponge!
That's a good one. Is it an original? They should use it in thier ads. Can't wait to get a set .

It's mine...have you ever dropped a wet sponge?

It's the closest thing to describing a landing with a good set of shocks....all the bounce is gone.

Tigger.....bad!!!
SpongeBob....Good!!!

they make them for just about any 4 wheeler
they ask your ride, weight, and what kind of riding you do most

Chimmer,
The longer swingarm will
1) keep you from popping the front end up as much
2) increase stability at higher speed
3) give you a little more rear suspention travel

The +2+1 A-Arms will
1) keep you from popping the front end up as much (but not as well as the swingarm)
2) increase stability in the turns
3) give you more suspention travel in the front
4) make it harder to fit between trees on tight woods trails
