As the title says... it was on a quad when I bought it and have never seen one like this. Any ideas?

lol no sarcasm... I really had no clue what it was or what kind... I typed in yfz lowering on ebay and there it was after your post.

Thanks about my model wife! lol I actually just cut the exhaust down to 12" and like the looks a lot better!

#13yfz · 01-26-2012, 08:29 PM

I love the look of a cut down exhaust, specially the rossier and dasa. Those are long cans -_-

blown54 · 01-26-2012, 08:32 PM

Yes they are... I didn't plan on cutting it but the damn rivets got stuck and I got impatient lol Out came the cutting wheel.... turned out pretty good and the sound is LOUD but clean.

#13yfz · 01-26-2012, 08:35 PM

Great things happen when Men get impatient. haha Did you see an increase of power anywhere?

blown54 · 01-26-2012, 08:40 PM

I have not rode it yet... I keep going to the doc once a month and they keep telling me one more month until I can ride! It's been 6 months now. Since the put a screw in my bone 6 weeks ago it has finally started healing so hopefully I can ride soon. I added a 15 tooth front sprocket and pro armor nerfs... waiting on a skid plate and new grab bar. Here she is with the cut exhaust.

Niiiicee! i like the plastics and DFR graphics. How do you like those shocks? buddy of mine picked up a pair of ZPS's, i run custom axis triple rates. This will be my first year on decent shocks.

blown54 · 01-26-2012, 08:58 PM

I really like them... I sent em to Johnny Hale when I bought them and he set them up for me. The rear is excellent too but needs to be serviced. Jim (Cleatus on here) runs Custom Axis on his R and they are really nice. He's hit a roughly 80' table at a track we ride, overshot it, and was good to go. It's a world of difference riding with good LT suspension. Cornering is a lot more fun when you can keep all 4 or at least 3 tires on the ground.

#13yfz · 01-26-2012, 09:03 PM

I have hope then! I'm coming off stock suspension and i now have LT gibson +3's and custom axis remotes. So, night and day is what i expect.

blown54 · 01-26-2012, 09:09 PM

HUGE difference. It's amazing once you hit a jump or whoops you were used to hitting on stock shocks. Raises your confidence like no other. Casing or over shooting is a lot more forgiving (depending on how big your going).

#13yfz · 01-26-2012, 09:12 PM

I go big..I think the best part of racing MX is the whoops/rthyms, Big jumps.
Can't wait to try em out!!
