The rear of the quad is 49". The front looks to be more like 47"

New axle and narrower offset wheels and the width will not be a problem!!!!

MX guys may still go with wider A-arms to be at 49" to match the rear.

good observation, we'll see if this is correct soon.

Yes its around 47". but think about when the front suspension is compressed, those front wheels will stick out a lot farther after that. so it should be around 50".

I think the hardcore MXrs will put some +1 A-arms on with 4-1 offset rims. Heck for you XC guys you might just slap on some 4-1's as it sits, without putting different arms on!

Just a thought

I think hardcore mx guys will just leave it stock. lol. If Doug Gust and Jones are running stock bikes. I doubt many of us will touch that. The market is now just like the dirtbikes are. Everyone just runs revalved stock suspension and ocassionally changes the linkage for different ratios.

I guess the front is a full 49".

On the "other" 450 site, they showed a bottom picture and the front matched the rear in that pic. Still 4-1 offset rims should get is to about 46.5-47".

Who knows...maybe it already has 4 on 1's on it now??? Just a suggestion. lol

I agree w/ scabbs. once you put your zps shock springs and valves in or di spring rates to get it a little lower. it will match the rear. just look at the pics and the front a-arms sit at a pretty good angle.
