ranshee Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Well guys, I finally got the front suspension all moded and what not. Now the the bike looks funny as hell with the front being all wide and the rear still being stock. Now its time for the rear. I'm gonna get the stock shock revalved and sprung, so all I have to worry about is the axle. I'm kinda leanin towards the team industries, or the lone star, or the rpm, or maybee even the dura blue. I guess you guys kinda see what I'm gettin at with this. So what do you all recomend and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelbanshee2 Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 lonestar axcalubur....solid axle and good warrantee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txblueshee Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Alot of people have real strong opinions about this but I say go with whatever you can get a good deal on... I don't like LSR's customer service.... you can't get ahold of rpm..... dura-blues=dura-break.... and I ain't heard anything about the team industries. Like I said, I don't like lonestars customer service but I found one of there axles for 265$ shipped, so that's what I'm running .

sredish Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Like Mike said, they all have their issues to some extent. I run a Durablue cause that's what I was able to get the fastest when I was getting one. I don't have any experience with RPM. Just buy what you can get the easiest and/or the best deal on and you'll be fine! And as far as the Durabend issue, they say that the Durablues break and the LSR's bend so whatever. Haven't been around either that have had problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucky13 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 go with lonestar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boonman Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 I have gone the Dura Blue route. Piss on them. Lonestar Xcalibur is what I have through the carrier on my bike right now. And while it is rusty now, (from neglect...) I still love the fact that I cannot break/bend it.... I would recommend none other than a LSR.

RNBRAD Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 RPM Dominator is what I ended up buying. I talked to Janssen racing who recommended them based on their warranty stating they had the least problems with them with warranty issues. I also called RPM to order some parts directly and was just shooting the bull with the guy over the phone, told him I purchased their axle and was unable to get it through the carrier very easy. He said sometimes the chrome can be a little thick and maybe it was missed when they use the ring to check clearance. He said if I have any more trouble to just send it back and they would replace it with a new one. This was an example to me that they won't hesitate in the least regarding warranty issues.

KRMit Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 What about the G-Force? It's only $200 from RMATV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
