Thank you BBR.

I just picked up the parts I ordered from Brent and Larry over at BBR. Only took me a couple of hours to install the E6 forks, tall BBR seat, and chain for the longer swing arm. It feels like a totally different bike just sitting on it. I can't wait till tomorrow to see how much better it rides.

Re: Thank you BBR.

those forks are good, brother had them and they go great.

only thing is that they are longer then marzokes so a longer swingarm would be cool

Re: Thank you BBR.

WOW. What a difference. Went to the local OHV park this morning and had a blast. Rode around for about 3 hours. I can now ride over small bumps like they are not even there. Even the ruts and drop off's are pretty smooth. The rear bottoms if I sit to far back or jump to high but its not bad. There will be a Fox Float in my future I think though. Over all I am quite happy with the mods I've done.

I was looking at the SCUT 106 kit (just the low end SCUT kit) for more power. Is anybody running this set up? How is the reliability? How long does the piston last in the SCUT kits?
