I had a yfz450R and all I do is ride woods. That thing pushed like crazy... Does the X have the same issue? Would i need to buy a arms to fix it?

I have the x and I have never had a problem with it pushing. Or I just never realized it but I dont think it does.

they have the same frame geometry, so if you didnt like the R, the x will do the same. houser makes a bracket that changes the geometry that is supposed to help that, but i think it only works with their arms. some other companies have similar products though, so it might be worth looking into some of them.

The pushing is due to your tires or the suspension settings may be set to soft for your riding style. We keep Houser -.75 inch long travel a-arms in stock for the YFZ450R with the Cecco bracket.
