Ok, well thanks to Colorado700 and SoCalrappy , I got my suspension setup properly today.. for ME.(230lbs).  :clap:

Now with some more questions. But first, I will tell you about my riding habits, areas and such. Because Im sure it makes a difference.


I ride 90% of the time here in Eastern Oklahoma. Woods, creeks, trails, backyard flat tracks, small jumps (im chicken sh*t  :P), Very little sand, rocks, gravel, steep hills, rarely in 5th gear except on pavement. I spend ALOT of time in 2, 3 and 4th gears, tight turns. Low end power is great as is, but more is always better  :D I catch myself doing alot of donuts with this thing.. Ive only had it 2 days now. I like playin in the mud too. And just putting around with my wife and kids on their ATV's.

Now I think I have a setup picked out, but want some expierenced opinions on the parts Ive choosen. Please let me know if they are good for my application or not.

Exhaust: Barker Duals with billet clamps, PC III, Pro Flow Intake and outerware box cover, Stock Sproket sizes front and rear, but RK brand with an RK chain and CCP Stabilizer..


If there is anything that is in that list, that might not be necessary for me, please let me know. Also if there is something Im missing here. Thanks in advance ya'll! 8)

Horsepower is like a condom, I'd rather have it and not need it.. Than need it and not have it.

The list sounds good man.  But I dont think there is a need to swap chain and sprockets right from the get go. I believe the factory stuff would be just fine until it gets alittle warn out

In all honesty I would not do dual. No offence to you dual guys, but for a stock motor, its a huge waste, dare I say your leaving a little power in the table with duals being overkill for a STOCK motor.

Not to mention the added weight, hassle, cost, and fitment that duals can bring.
