Anyone know where I can get new set or two.It is white plastic(looks like teflon) in front fork tower.I guess if You start to do more air You have to replace it more often.
Tks.

If I were you I'd start to gather as much supplies as possible bolts , seats, bushings, foot pegs bearings & races axles side rails ,one front fork.

when doing demos or shows you should have at lease enough parts to build a whole buggy

beside having the extra parts you can get back up and running faster right then and there then put the word out for a replacement that you just used, less down time.

Better yet! grab Eltons buggy when he's burning the laugher
break his sh#$ and tell him your buggy a piece of crap:lol::evil:

Hey David
That's a good one.I'll talk to Elton;)
So far it take more abuse than anything alse and it hold very well but lately I notice that I have small loose on front so I'm trying to be prepered for worse.I thing main reason of this problem is my 10 hours a week jumping and my weight is twice more than Yours guys.I have acces to all parts exept bushings and thst is why I will buy two extra sets just in case.

I just finished NABX video last night at 3;45 so stay tuned...

Very good move.There is only one problem,when You have to shoot You can't preform,so make sure You will have camera man available before You buy it.O just recived wide angle lens for mine wich is criticlal when shooting up close.I have exlusive original CD from NABX for You man.
Cheers
