Thats why you should get a trike. No A arms to snap. What if that happened when you were riding? Would it make it just as 'dangerous' as trikes are supposed to be?

i now he makes 250r and 300ex ones also. he makes ones for all the 450's and 400ex and z400's also. he makes them without the +1 forward which is better anyway that screws up your steering goemetry. i mite be able to get them bare metal cheaper and you paint them yourself.

he makes bearing carriers for all the models with eccentric ones + anti vibe steering stems. block off plates also.

he makes his own beadlock wheels for $100 each for 8" $120 for 10" and thats with inner rings.
