Decisions Decisions???????????
Hey guys I'm in the market for a front end for the kawi. I think I'm pretty set on fox shocks. But I'm up in the air on the arms. I really would like to have walsh but there a little pricey and the money I could save getting a different set of arms I could use elsewhere on the quad, but there not totally out of the question. I ride mx most if not all the time.
My options:
-walsh
-atv four play
-JB
-JD
I'll most likely try to get them threw KB motorsports here on the site just because they support the site and have some killer deals. If anyone has any other set up's they would recommend even different shocks I'd like to hear it.
Thanks Jon

I've heard the ATV Four-Play MX arms are awesome on the KFX. I run their XC MGC a-arms and I love them. They're cheaper than Walsh, and you'll get the same handling...from what I've heard. I can't say that w/100% certainty as I haven't ridden on both...or either. Just word of mouth.

Thanks for quick reply man...I've also heard good things about atv fourplay on the kfx, and there's a decent price difference. You think I'm on the right track with getting the fox shocks???

Definately...I don't think anything else comes close. They're great shocks. I was shocked...or the lack thereof, the first time I hit a big bump after I put mine on. Lol. I winced knowing it was going to be bad, but I didn't feel a thing.

Check these a-arms out. This company is sponsoring Keith Little this year and I looked at a set of Keith's a-arms and they are freaking sweet! Keith said he help design them and he took what he liked about all the a-arm companies and combined them for these, he said they ride better than anything!

Fox designed shocks around Walsh, ATV Four Play , and JB arms on your list. JD Performance has not sent a set of Kfx450 arms to Fox. We can order Fox shocks for JD Performance a-arms, but it typically takes longer.
Jon, feel free to give us a call if you have questions.
